I recently stayed in the Hotel Bendene when in Exeter for a wedding. I used it as a base to spend two days exploring the city and area. The hotel is 5 minutes walk from the main high street of Exeter and in a nice area. There is off road parking behind the hotel and even a garage for 3... more

a beautifully clean, centrally located hotel where the staff are friendly and the breakfast service is first class. i would recommend this hotel to anyone, whether young or old. more

I only stayed for one night, but though this was a really lovely little place! far more character than a souless chain hotel. Bed was comfy, shower was hot and the breakfast was great. It's only a 10 min walk into Exeter Town Centre, so it's also in a good location. I will definetly stay here next time I come... more

My husband and I recently stayed at the Bendene for our wedding anniversary in the 'four poster room', the room was spotlessly clean. We found the staff very friendly and keen to make our stay a happy one. The location so close to the city centre was an added bonus. We will definetely be returning when next in the area! more

A couple of gripes; on my final morning breakfast was only served between 7.30 and 8am instead of 8.30, I don't know whether this was because there were few guests. I value my beauty sleep so I missed breakfast and ate at... more

After I told him the TV remote in the room I was staying in did not work (which was a minor inconvenience as we watch little TV) he insisted that he checked it that morning and would... more

I stayed at the Bendene for one night, prior to a business meeting the following day. I found the whole experience a refreshing change from staying in corporate chain hotels. I was only aware of one member of staff during my stay. Paul, the self-titled 'hired help' was relaxed and welcoming, while always courteous and efficient. He ensured that the... more

Stayed here midweek for 1 night recently after reading that it had 4 diamonds and was a freindly hotel. I cant imagine how it got 4 Diamonds and the friendly description is incorrect. The welcome was not far short of rude and the 'private parking' turned out to be on the road parking which a) was very limited, and b)had... more

I arrived at the Bendene Hotel after a long day, and was shown to the side of the swimming pool in an oasis of flowers, given tea. what tranquility and peace.brill more
