voco Zeal Exeter Science Park is IHG’s first net zero carbon hotel, offering sustainable luxury at the gateway to Exeter Science Park, home to the South West’s leading STEMM businesses. Perfectly located 1 mile from Exeter Airport, near the M5 and A30, this premium 4-star hotel is ideal for business and leisure travellers.

The hotel features 142 stylish bedrooms, a mini gym, gardens, meeting spaces, and ISCA, an onsite restaurant and bar. Committed to sustainability, the hotel is 100% electric with advanced solar panel technology, generating more electricity than it consumes. The car park includes 12 EV charging points, further supporting eco-conscious travel.

Designed for comfort and innovation, the hotel’s two atriums provide natural daylight, reducing artificial lighting, while trees and foliage enhance air quality. Rooms offer cozy plant-based bedding, refillable amenities, Chromecast TVs, and aerated showerheads to minimize water use. Executive rooms include yoga mats, and select rooms feature kitchenettes for extended stays. Triple glazing, airtight construction, and fresh air ventilation ensure energy efficiency, using just a third of the energy of traditional hotels.

Dining at ISCA is a celebration of local, seasonal produce. The open-theatre kitchen showcases dishes made with care by chefs collaborating with local farmers and suppliers. Guests can savour English wines, local beers, and signature breakfasts featuring locally sourced sausage, bacon, and freshly baked scones. Meals can be enjoyed indoors or on the terrace.

voco Zeal Exeter Science Park seamlessly blends mindful hospitality with modern comfort, making it the ultimate destination for environmentally conscious travellers.
