“The Raffles stands out as a well-regarded family-run B&B in Exeter, distinguished by its convenient location between the university and the city centre, making exploration on foot effortless. Its complimentary on-site parking is a significant advantage, particularly given the area's parking challenges, and the attentive management, epitomised by Daniel, contributes to a welcoming atmosphere. Guests consistently appreciate the comfortable rooms, the delicious breakfasts, and the flexibility in check-in and check-out times, which create a genuine home-away-from-home feel.”
