In the halls at Exeter University, basic but good value for the area. Excellent breakfast, self service with everything you want.

The rooms we had were a big step above the student rooms we had back in the 1980's although they could benefit from better ventilation in hot weather. The fact they had ensuite facilities and lifts helped greatly. The breakfast was very good indeed and the staff very professional and friendly.

The location is beautiful and very handy from Exeter St Davids station. It is a steep uphill walk from there, but I enjoyed it. My room was clean and functional as advertied. The breakfast was excellent with a huge variety if options.

I stayed here again after four years—back then we were in Clydesdale Court, and this time we chose the guest rooms in Holland Hall.
The campus was beautifully quiet during term break, and the staff were as friendly and helpful as ever.
My room was simple yet spotless, with a lovely view. The bathroom was spacious and the shower had excellent water pressure—just be mindful of the wet floor afterward. If you need a hairdryer or other small extras, simply ask at reception.
Despite a large academic conference onsite, check‑in, breakfast, and every aspect of my stay ran smoothly.
Breakfast was excellent, and the dining hall is spacious with its own pleasant outlook. There’s also a cozy social area beside reception—both indoors and outdoors—which is perfect for relaxing.
All in all, a peaceful, nice stay—I’d happily return again.

Basic, clean and great for visiting Exeter. The breakfast had good variety and lots of it. Its the views from the canteen of surrounding Devon countryside that stand out.

Clean and tidy, but small and spartan. Small shower with dreaded curtain in a wet room. Hard bed. Great breakfast

It is a nice experience. The condition and cleanliness of the room is good. It would be perfect if there was an electric fan in the room during the summer time.

Very small, simple, single room. All the basics, No TV but that didn’t bother me. Good price and the breakfast was great. Oh, and it was very quiet.

Awesome setting and very clean and quiet
Bed was very small and the shower while clean and functional was small enough that the curtain sticks to you
Tbh it’s hall’s so wasn’t expecting too much
The lack of any working coffee machine however was not something I was over the moon about
I’d stay here again if I couldn’t find somewhere better

Enjoyed our stay. Convenient location for St Davids station. The campus was beautiful and we spent an hour or two wandering around looking at all the buildings and grounds. Staff were lovely. Breakfast was good value. Only negative was the bed was smaller than we are used to and the bedroom was very hot, not helped because the windows had restricted opening. We would stay again.

A comfortable room with a lovely tree top view, and an excellent surrounding aesthetic.
The shower wasn’t very good, and the breakfast wasn’t worth the money.
Overall, an okay stay! Very convenient if you’re going the the University for a conference.

Very clean room and the campus is beautiful. The breakfast was good - lots of choice. Service was very good -staff all very helpful. However the bedlinen was cheap and scratchy and the room was as you would expect - an empty student room. This would be fine if the rate was not identical to hotels in Exeter which would provide more more comfortable surroundings and quality bedlinen.

We loved the university , lovely beautiful ground, lots of walkway , beautiful surrounding nature , big beautiful mature trees which well taking good care of.
Great choice of breakfast , great value for money. enjoyed breakfast ( though hot breakfast a was Luke warm, could improve on hot food temperature )
However, take time to find Holland Hall as several building near by , improvement can be made with clear signage ( front door said reception , however, at time unsure ? reception for Holland Hall or for student reception.
Overall enjoyed staying at Holland Hall . great value for money .
Will visit again in future .
Thank you

Very convenient for Exeter graduation ceremony being 7 min walking distance from the Hall and having car park 🅿️.
Rooms are small but practical and clean.
Breakfast is basic but fast. Note coffee machine breaks regularly and needs fixing, which takes times.
There is nothing you can do about screaming seagulls, who apparently never sleep. 🙉
There is an amazing view and seating area next to receiption. We made perfect family photos for our lasting memories!

Fantastic option for a reasonably priced couple of nights stay!
Basic student accommodation with no frills. Water piping hot and room spotlessly clean.
Staff were more than helpful and looked after me very well.
The buffet breakfast was great and a good selection. Some gluten free options are available.
It’s about a 20 - 30 minute walk (I walk quite fast) from the station and also to town. NB there is a very steep hill to the campus so if you’re pulling a suitcase it could be wise to take a taxi from the station!
So if you’re looking for a cheap overnight stay with no frills but safe, clean and comfortable- then this option is ideal!
Plenty of tea and coffee is available. Hairdryers are available upon request.
Loved it’

Toilet did not work and the water pressure for shower was very poor. Very disappointing.
