Gissons Hotel is located on the outskirts of Exeter. Even though about 7.8 miles from the town, driving time is on an average 25-40 mins depending upon time of the day. It's a residential hotel, no food or beverage facilities. There is a manager & a lady housekeeper who together manage the entire property.
We had booked the suite room - it's the only one of its type in this hotel. It was a "really" spacious room along with a living area, a huge bathroom with a tub and a separate shower cubicle.
There are no elevators, it's a traditional English & somewhat an older building with lots of rooms; someone like us with big luggage bags can be in for a tough time walking along many corridors and staircase :)
The highlight is that it's clean and the hotel manager is helpful and prompt. There is enough validated street parking outside. read more
