Great service, beautiful room. There was a problem with our meal on the first night but the waitress, Olivia, did everything she could to make the issue not feel so bad, and then we were given a most generous reduction to the bill. These things happen, but it’s how they are dealt with makes up for it. Lovely, relaxing stay.

Stayed for two nights last week and everything was great: clean room, well-appointed with fridge, hair dryer, etc., easy parking, close to everything. The best thing is the young staff who made us feel very welcome. Compliments to the bartender, Minty and Nick the manager, who was very well informed about the local attractions and who helped us plan a plan a route to see the interesting churches, ruins, palaces, and pubs nearby. I will recommend a stay here to all friends visiting Winchester.

Nothing charming about this experience.
Stayed for a one night trip, expecting a luxury experience from a well known hotel chain, but was left very disappointed by the lack pf personality and charm as advertised, the cold service and tired hotel. The hotel room was small, with no amenities to speak of (not even a box of tissues!), despite stating that the room would be occupied by 2 persons, there was only one towel and bottle of water, the 'welcome' at the reception desk at both check in and check out was very cold, with no personality or even asking if we had a good stay! The sewage smell coming from the bathroom sink as well as hot water from the cold tap left us feeling very disappointed. Would have expected much better, from a hotel claiming to be 'exuding charm'.

Underwhelming for the price
Expensive hotel, nice decor and good location but room cold and heating/air conditioning not working, shower temperature limited so not really hot enough, no normal coffee (only decaffeinated), only one set of towels for two of us…

Nice stay
Nice room, a little worn but Hotel du Vin has always been a bit shabby chic. Lovely amenities in the bathroom, nice coffee and tea tray. The shower had virtually no water coming out of the shower head so had to take a “splash bath”-I guess because it was a top floor room

We had minor frustrations with service at breakfast but the Manager was quick to respond, spending time with us to fully understand our concerns. Quality of food service was excellent. Good position in town centre with the benefit of parking.

Great hotel but a little noisy
This was our second visit having had a brilliant stay previously. Rooms and bedding are extremely clean and comfortable. Food is excellent. Location is perfect for Winchester. The only really downside is the noise. The hotel is in a busy main road and previously we had a room at the back but this time we were in the road. We asked to move as it was noisy and they kindly moved is to a side room but it was still noisy and as well as the road, music from the restaurant below was playing until after 10pm and before 7am. We would stay again but would definitely request a quiet room in advance.

Disappointing stay. All the staff were friendly and helpful but I felt the hotel itself is tired and needs some tlc. Our room was called “deluxe” I felt it was cramped, old fashioned and tatty. The carpet had stains, beds were sagging in the middle the pillows were lumpy, The shower was weak, the taps and the shower have air locks and splutter a lot. The tap on the hand basin swivelled round when you tried to turn it on. Some tiles on the floor weren’t properly laid and had sharp edges There was a lot of building noise from about 5.30am onwards. The communal areas also need a good luck of paint and carpet cleaning. The bar was not inviting at all but on a sunny day the courtyard would be lovely. Hot breakfast was good.

The property itself is lovely, it has a beautiful courtyard (fro drinks/lunch) and is only a 2 minute walk to Winchester town centre. My main feedback would be on the issue of staff training. They don't look around and see if anyone would like drinks (they deliver to another table and rush off). You sometimes have to find people to assist you and they weren't short of staff. This happened at least 3-4 times. One breakfast time we went down at 10 am and it doesn't finish untill 11am but already they were clearing things away/not replenshing the breakfast buffet so the choice was limited and we had to ask for simple things like water glasses. For the price of the room I would expect much more proactive service. For that reason I don't think I'd stay here again.
