Today, Exeter's motto, semper fidelis - ‘always loyal' - is an apt description of how people feel about our neighbourhood. Our hotel is already steeped in local history, it's offerings - and its name - have changed to serve each new era's needs. What started off as a department store called Colson's became Dingles, became House Of Fraser, became the Hotel Indigo Exeter.
Alongside 104 beautifully designed bedrooms we also offer 3 unique Food & Beverage offerings: Colson's Seafood Bar and Grill provides a unique take on contemporary British cuisine. The Dugout is our upscale Sports Bar - the place to kick back and watch the biggest sporting events from around the globe and finally Becketts our skyline Champagne and Cocktail Bar with breath-taking views across cathedral green in the heart of Exeter, the experience at Becketts is unparalleled to anything the city has to offer. If that wasn't enough, we also feature a stunning urban Spa called The Retreat - so there really is something for everyone.
