Tukki at the front desk was extremely helpful. She upgraded us to a suite because it was the only room available when we arrived early. Appreciated. We appreciate the buildings in Winchester are very old but we think overall maintenance of rooms could be better. Coffee stains on the carpet, a little touch up paint and minor repair on walls in the bathroom could go a long way.

Great location for central Winchester. The parking situation is awful, we stayed 6 nights, and were in and out whilst staying and spent what seemed like ages driving around the one way system going from one car park to another trying to find space (each time you tried either the top or bottom car park it was another loop around the whole of the city centre!) It would be helpful if residents could secure a given space for the duration of the stay. The hotel is comfortable (note there is no lift in the old building, so the top floor was up multiple stairs). The staff were not the friendliest (staying over Christmas and not a single Happy Christmas!) We would stay again, so nothing stated here outweighs the convenience of the location.

Great location, onsite parking, lovely welcoming entrance. Room and bathroom a little tired and worn. Doors very thin so you can hear all the other guests talking and walking up and down the corridor.

The room was good but the breakfast was a bit chaotic.We had to wait a long time for bacon and tomatoes to arrive and by that time the eggs had gone cold. Think this was due to the graduations and a wedding making it extremely busy.

Very nice and comfortable and lovey place. Service was great However, Criticism would be that ‘nothing’ flushed out of the toilet if you understand what I mean, so clearly a drainage problem but not very nice. The bath wouldn’t drain after we had showers either. Also we booked our breakfast for 9.30 but had to sit in the lounge as there were no tables available? The topping up of the self serve buffet was not great and seemed a bit chaotic. They clearly they had guests to feed so should have been more prepared maybe. Another couple of toasters and definitely another coffee machine would go amiss! Other than that lovely!
