Charming hotel in a lovely, convenient spot. Nice staff. Great breakfast. Loved it.

Lee, United Kingdom

We were upgraded, so we were very happy! The bed was extremely large and very comfortable. Being so close to the town centre was also great.

Jane, United Kingdom

Room 177 was satisfactory with comfy bed, telly, coffee & tea making facilities and a extra large walk in shower room and disabled facilities only thing was no heating in bathroom which cos of the size was a rush in and rush out job. must mention the staff who were all superb, Reception was easy to book in and out, breakfast was as you would expect buffet style. Only one criticism £10 per night parking for guests na suerly not.

Daiofelli, United Kingdom

Good location with walking distance of the central train station; and 2 blocks from city centre. Easy to walk to Winchester Cathederal, museums, many local restaurants, and the oldest pub in England. Nice garden with tables for Spring - Autumn. Unfortunately we only stayed 1 night; but we will return.

Brian, United Kingdom

Very good location and spacious room. Nice courtyard and restaurant (although we did not eat there).

Room very tired and dark. Tiles in bathroom coming away from wall, water pressure meant you got soaked turning the tap on. Towels didn’t look very clean. Hallways strewn with housekeeping stuff. Lady on reception at checkout was surly.
Only up side was great location.
