Gipsy Hill Hotel is a little bit tired but this is to be expected in a building of this vintage. The staff are fantastic and they work tirelessly to accommodate our needs as conference guests. Jackie is a diamond.

Good quality -price
Large room with comfortable beds. The hotel has beautiful antique furniture and it's a pleasure to look at. Large TV in the room. Good water pressure in the bathtub. Heating working very well. No problem with parking. Long stairs to get to the room. Staff very kind and helpful.

Won’t be returning.
We arrived and no one was at the reception, we rang the bell no one. In the end we ended up calling the hotel number and then the receptionist appeared at the desk. The hotel is very dated, musky smell throughout. Only toiletries provided (after stating provided) was a small bar of soap. We had to go buy shower gel.
Net curtain had holes and ripped and windows with black mould. Carpet stained with a red mark. The shower was powerful and hot although again not overly clean. Small tea and coffee station table which was good although the table was worn.
After a long day we wanted a decent sleep at least but the bed especially left side you could feel the springs. Don’t mind the dated decor but would appreciate more cleanliness at least!

This was an adequate stop over. It was good value for money but requires some refurbishment.

I liked the fact that it was away from the immediate noise of the traffic and a nice distance from the main road, without feeling too isolated. I also liked the style of furniture in the hotel and the way you felt you could almost be in a different era, when you were in the bedroom and in the sitting area downstairs, it was a good heartwarming feeling. I was transported to a less hectic time and lifestyle in the few days i stayed here and i wish i could have stayed longer

The room was clean but cold, I had to ask for the heating to be put on.
The food was embarrassing, I've had better meals from a supermarket cafe.
Friendly staff but a very dated hotel.

The outer entrance to the annex was full rubbish cigarette ends and litter. My batroom sani-bin was full to the top of medical? tubes, it had not been emptied before my arrival. This could have been a bio hazard and also reflected on the overall cleanliness of the room. I reported what I had found to a member of staff the following morning. No apology from the hotel has been forthcoming.

Gypsy Hill Hotel, Exeter, UK.
Our stay was amazing. Very enjoyable and pleasantly very surprising considering its location. The aproach is on a narrow road.
Very comfortable room and clean.
Breakfast was good. We stayed one night and did not have any other meal.
Noticed it was rated as a 3 star hotel. Think it should have 4 stars!

Comfortable stay
My stay at the Gypsy Hill Hotel was good, the staff are very helpful & friendly. We are a meal in the evening of Lamb Shank & it was delicious. The breakfast was well cooked & there was plenty to fill you up. The only slight downside is that the rooms could be revamped & modernised. The room was clean but could have been cleaner. The beds were comfortable & there were plenty of cupboards for clothes etc. So I would recommend this Hotel to stay at.

Family visit to Exeter
The rooms were spacious and very clean and tidy. Good shower and toilet facilities in our ensuite bathroom. Nice comfortable beds for my wife and I plus our 13 year old son. Staff were very friendly and helpful and the cooked breakfast was both delicious and plentiful. Plenty of cereals or toast, bread and marmalade, jam options as well for those who didn't want a full English.
Will definitely stay here again if rooms are available.

Don’t stay here.
The only good thing about this hotel was the lovely friendly lady on reception. The room we was given must have been last decorated 25 years ago. Filthy stained walls, carpet, rusty light fittings, mould on bathroom tiles and ceiling. A “bewear” sign in the hall stated it was being redecorated, no sign of any such works. Other than the sign and some floor covering, the only thing to beware of is the state of the place. At breakfast there was no staff greeting or acknowledgement, presumably it was one of the owners on duty. They acted like royalty and clearly have no customer service skills. It wasn’t the best cooked breakfast with cheap ingredients being used. The condition of the dining area was a lot better than our room to be fair.
