We stayed here for 1 night and we liked the place. Exceptionally clean venue with ideal location very close to the city centre. Exceptional, obliging people working here. Room was beautiful, and breakfast is tasty. Plus, Winchester Cathedral was located in the immediate surroundings. Good service during our stay too.

Good value, quiet atmosphere. I appreciated top location, very courteous staff. Airy and welcoming room, marble-lined bathroom. Savoury English breakfast - fresh bread, cereals, pastries, scrambled eggs and cheese. Quick check-in & excellent service.

Well, the views were dull here.

Prime location, spotless, good bed, fabulous staff. The staff did all they can for a perfect 10/10 stay. Room was a nice size and a nice size, with a lot of attention to detail. Plenty of options, astonishing food. Smooth check-in and attentive customer service.

The room I got was cool and cosy. Very central location, at a moderate distance from a ruined castle.

The bed is nice and the location is good. The decor here was convenient. Next to the downtown, 5 minutes on foot. Truly enjoyed dainties at Hoxton Bakehouse, it was just walking distance from the hotel.

Their breakfast was overpriced.

Great hall was only 5 min walk. Within walking distance to Loch Fyne, where you can have lunch. Perfect for a wedding celebration. The hotel was very close to Winchester train station...

right by many local attractions, including the wolvesey castle, which is just 10 mins on foot. if you want to eat nearby, try kyoto kitchen, which is situated 100 m away.

Nothing not too like.
