Big room with view on the Cathedral right at the heart of Winchester. Friendly staff at reception and at the bar.
Franck, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very dated hotel. It’s clean and the staff are polite. The bar had run out of tapped beer and snacks. Not only that it shut before midnight including residents. Barman did give me a free short to compensate but a group of friends meeting up would have happily sat there until late! Breakfast was decent, a little limited. Cooked offering was tasty. My room was a single and very small but got the job done.

Both receptionist and dua in the bar were beyond helpful and lovely. It was great that they made such a fuss of my dogs. The rooms are very clean but definitely need an update of furniture and decoration. But I would still choose to stay at this friendly hotel

8/10 Very good

Overall, the stay was nearly perfect - great price, convenient location, a spacious room, and very quiet. The only drawback was a slightly stale smell and worn carpets, along with a few other outdated features.

Lovely room, friendly staff on reception desk
Paul, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

City centre hotel with great views of the cathedral and a charming 60s vibe from the quirky building. Great friendly staff and atmosphere and a generous clean room with a comfortable bed. Will be visiting again!
