A really nice hotel in Exeter needed

[Thomcat]

My mate is going to Exeter for the weekend with her new man and wants somewhere really nice to stay. something a bit different as well as lovely would go down well. Something like a lighthouse that is now a hotel or something, or failing that just a really stoosh hotel.

Any ideas?

Hotel Barcelona will fit the ticket

I don't think there is alot to choose from in Exeter itself. It is not overly endowed with lovely places to stay.

Your best bet is the Abode Exeter Royal Clarence - it overlooks the Cathedral Green which is nice and it has a Michael Caine restaurant which is also v nice. Rooms are big, beds are big, roll top baths. www.abodehotels.co.uk/exeter/

Does she have to be in the city itself? If not then there are some lovely, luxurious places in the surrounding countryside (30-40min drive?).

I've forwarded these to her, thanks so much.

No she doesn't have to be in teh city itself, they are happy to drive out.

artichokes, what you recommend for hotels outside of Exeter (but still in the vicinty)
