Perfect location. We didn’t eat at the hotel so can’t comment. The staff were pleasant and efficient. The garden area is beautiful with plenty of seating.
The only thing was that the room was so hot. A fan was provided but luckily I’d also taken my own. The windows don’t open far for security.

We stayed one night in the feature room and it was good - power showers, comfy bed and quiet. The room was cozy and nice.
Shame there is no AC which could be very problematic during the heat.
Check in process was smooth and quick and staff was friendly and efficient.
The hotel has great location and a lovely garden.
It is patchy at parts to call it luxury but the overall impression is positive.

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.

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.

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!
