Great overnight stay

We stayed for one night. Lovely lady on reception, polite, efficient and friendly. Beautiful room (we were given an upgrade), very spacious, clean, comfortable bed. Plenty of choice with tea, coffee, biscuits etc. The toiletries were good quality. Lovely big bathroom. The room was mega hot but there was a great fan so no problem. Would recommend. Great location too.

A delightful hotel. Our room was very spacious and comfortable. The food was delicious. Loved hanging out in the courtyard for an evening nightcap. Very conveniently located in Winchester. Enjoyed all the history behind the hotel and Winchester is a fascinating town.

Very old building. Lovey and comfortable beds. Breakfast very good too. £15 to park overnight. £13 breakfast if you book night before. £50 when you check in per day on room..
Trevor, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great hotel literally yards from the high street but set on a really quiet road. Staff were all super helpful and it has a great bar and garden where you can sit and chill after a busy day sightseeing. Theres two carparks at this hotel which although you have to pay for, are superb and super convenient. Beds are big & comfy and i wouldn't hesitate in using this hotel again.
Patrick, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We had a lovely stay here. Everyone was very welcoming, friendly and attentive. Upon arrival we had to wait for our room to be ready and had a drink in the garden which was so peaceful. Our room was very spacious and we had alot of space to put our clothes away, the bed was nice but it was two beds put together and it was very clear, but nothing major still had the best sleep. The shower was amazing great water pressure and good temperature.
Francesca, 2-night trip

A really enjoyable two night stay in this excellent hotel. The room was clean, and the bed comfortable. The breakfasts were among the best I have experienced ... plenty of choice and very tasty (real honey!). The evening meal was also very good. Staff were helpful and friendly and the car parking was no problem. I highly recommend this hotel and will gladly stay there again. We even met Bob Mortimer, Paul Whitehouse and their dog Ted!
