The 120-guestroom hotel, employing 55 team members, offers convenient, quality, affordable accommodation for air travellers, for those visiting the nearby city or setting off to other areas of the South West.

Travellers will also be able to enjoy internet access included with their stay and a 24-hour business centre facility on site.

Exeter Airport’s Hampton by Hilton is Hilton Worldwide’s debut hotel for Exeter, the eleventh in the UK and Hilton Worldwide’s twelfth airport hotel in the country.

Simon Vincent, area president, EMEA, Hilton Worldwide said: “Hilton Worldwide is the largest global operator of airport hotels by room numbers and through our portfolio of brands we constantly seek to redefine the airport hotel experience.  Exeter Airport acts as an important gateway to the tourism hotspots of Devon and Cornwall, and has this year brought the number of destinations it serves up to 50 for the first time.  With the foundations laid for strong passenger growth in the next few years, we’re delighted to be establishing a presence here.”

The hotel has also struck a partnership with Flybe Airlines, whose internationally renowned training academy is located next door, providing guests with access to 26 modern conference and meeting rooms.
