Amazing stay!!

We had an amazing stay at the Marriott. It was very clean and modern, as well as extremely comfortable. The bed's were great and the best hotel shower ever! We were a family of four adults and had two connecting rooms. The rooms had connecting doors which was great. We stayed one night on our way driving down south, so the large car park was helpful. Maybe not the best hotel for travellers without a car but for us it worked perfectly. The breakfast are was on the 8th floor and had a beautiful view. The food was usual English hotel breakfast, but very nice.

Corporate nr M5. Views from top floor restaurant

This hotel is clean and crisp. Bedrooms and public rooms are corporate in style . Decor is rather dull - with a lot grey. Staff service in restaurant, bar and reception was good . The setting is not very attractive as the hotel is approached via vast car park and a covered pedestrian way. The location is convenient for the M5 motorway . Food is reasonable fort for this sort of holdall. The top floor restaurant has extensive views and live music in the bar - this is the hotels stand out feature

Stay linked to rugby at Sandy Park, parking on match day well organised on site but make sure you’ve downloaded your booking as connectivity is not the best. Hotel excellent, rooms clean & comfortable, bars excellent especially the top floor with views over Devon. Restaurant for evening meal and breakfast excellent but would recommend you experience a pasty and beers in the stadium if you’re going to a game.

Super convenient and surprisingly quiet

Chose the hotel as we were going to Sandy Park for the rugby. Excellent location and not hugely expensive which was a bonus. Food, service and room were excellent. Only tiny niggle was chairs being repositioned in the restaurant two floors above our room at 7am.....noise transmitted right through the structure.
