Video: Countdown to opening of new Hampton by Hilton hotel at Exeter Airport

Construction work is nearing completion on Exeter’s newest hotel.

The Hampton by Hilton at Exeter Airport, opposite the Flybe Training Academy, will open on Monday, April 29.

Contractors Denizen are due to hand over the building just before Easter, leaving a month for hotel staff to put the finishing touches to the 120-bedroom venue and undergo training.

General manager Simon Fordham said a healthy number of bookings were already coming in from local companies, foreign coach tour operators and even an avid plane-spotter.
