About Premier Inn Exeter City Centre Hotel

Exeter's mix of cathedral history, riverside quays and city-centre shopping makes it an easy base for a short stay, and Premier Inn Exeter City Centre sits right among it at 2 Southernhay Gardens. Exeter Cathedral, the Quayside and the Princesshay shops are all within walking distance, along with pubs, bars and other entertainment nearby.

The hotel has 120 rooms across four floors, all en-suite with air conditioning and drinks available in room, plus accessible rooms and a lift for guests who need them. A restaurant serves breakfast, and free WiFi and 24-hour reception are included as standard. There's an electric vehicle charge point on site, though parking itself is chargeable and located nearby at Magdalen Street Car Park, around a four-minute walk away.

Beyond the immediate surroundings, a golf course is also within reach for those wanting to fill a day outdoors. Room rates range from £39 to £150 depending on dates, making it a flexible option for both quick overnight stops and longer city breaks.
