Northington Vacations from $1,038

We stayed only for a night but it was very comfortable and looks amazing!!

It's such a shame! The building of the old Mercure hotel holds ok. The double room was spacious, clean, comfortable and with an amazing close view of the Winchester cathedral (practically over its grounds). But there was no milk for the tea in the room and the television did not show a single BBC channel (not even radio stations), had no access to satelite, internet or cable. When I called reception to ask if perhaps there was something I was not doing properly with the remote control, I was asked if the TV was showing other channels. When I said that only commercial channels seemed to be available, I was told that this was what was on offer and that's it. In some way, I'm grateful for the experience because it opened my eyes to how miserable life would be without the BBC service. I'll certainly pay the BBC licence with gusto now!

The hotel was clean and well presented, and although I didn’t have time to use the facilities, everything appeared in good order. Unfortunately, the breakfast was very disappointing. The “full English” only included scrambled eggs, with no option for fried or poached eggs, and there were no cold meats or cheeses available. There wasn’t even any marmalade. At £17.50, it was certainly not worth the price.

Lovely hotel with easy, safe parking. The staff was wonderful and very helpful.

A pleasant hotel for a night's stay. Had everything we needed. Tea/ coffee facilities but no fridge. Small bottled water provided. Room was a little cold though. All areas of the room and bathroom was clean. Friendly staff and nice restaurant area. Menu was acceptable.
