“CHARMING HOTEL”

Our second visit to this hotel, and it was just as we remembered it and enjoyed. Great location, friendly helpful staff, and very comfortable.

“Excellent location”

We visited Winchester for a short break as a family of four (2 rooms). Hotel is excellently situated for access to shops and cathedral. Good range of restaurants too-try Zizzis. The bar and garden were welcoming in early June sunshine. Rooms a little small - but comfortable and good flat screen TV with range of channels. Our bathroom (ground floor room) was cramped. We would certainly return but probably ask if other rooms available.

“Perfect for Heathrow”

Very good location and free parking in the middle of a difficult city to park.

“good hotel”

Very comfortable hotel. Great position right in the middle of town centre. People veryfriendly. Lovely garden, you could have been in the country.

“Hidden Gem”

Good central location. Old part of hotel is full of character. Ask for a Garden View. My wife said the only thing she could fault with our room (no 114) was the lack of a full length mirror for checking her out fit in! Women eh!! Try the Royal Oak pub nearby, oldest pub in England with a haunted down stairs section. Only problem was London prices for food and drink.

“Always specify - twin or double bed!”

Hotel staff very pleasant & helpful. Atmosphere very good. Breakfasts great! If you're put in a room on the modern annexe be prepared for a long walk. All in all a pleasant experience & a charming location.

“Fantastic location”

Our room was on the ground floor with a view of the gardens. The curtains did not close properly, there was a small gap in between the curtains. This problem was easily resolved by pushing the table in front of the window back slightly so that it held the curtains together. The rest of the room was clean and tidy and well kept. The room was very peaceful and quite which was great. With the view of the gardens it felt like we were in the countyside rather than in the middle of town. The breakfast buffet was served in the annex coservatory with a view of the gardens. The breakfast was lovely and the waitresses very attentive. The food served in the bar was also delicious. The fish and chips is highly recommended. Outside of the hotel it was a few minutes walk to the main shopping area and not far from the Cathedral which is well worth a visit Overall I enjoyed our stay at this hotel and would stay again.

“Good quiet hotel in central Winchester”

Quiet , comfortable . Enjoyable sensible food choice for Dinner , and pleasant restaurant looking out onto garden .

“Pleasant stay”

The hotel was in a very central position with free parking facliities. It has a lovely garden to relax in and the staff were courteous and professional

“generally good hotel”

This was generally good, with a high standard of cleanliness.  The room was quite good, though rather gloomy (bedside lamps only, no overhead light) and we had to ask for an additional tall lamp to provide an adequate level of lighting. Breakfast was good, though arrangements for paying for it a little confusing due to an apparent breakdown in communication between a waitress and reception staff. Reception staff very friendly and helpful. Overall, would probably go back.
