Location is right in the centre of town. All local attractions and shops are easily accessible on foot. Has parking, which is paid, but right behind the hotel and always had space when we stayed. Room and bathroom were both spacious, clean and built with quality. Had everything you need. Not a huge range for the choice during breakfast, but what was provided was excellent. Would definitely stay here again should we visit Winchester in the future.

We stayed when it was rather hot, and despite having air conditioning we couldn't get the room cool enough to sleep comfortably for one of the nights. If you are staying and the temperature is under 26C then it shouldn't be a problem :) Could provide some more allergen friendly options during breakfast, such as gluten free oats, or coconut/almond based yoghurts.

Great position, lovely building, great style.

Was very much looking forward to dinner but couldn’t take my dog into the dining room. Fine and only to be expected. Said I’d put her in the car no problem. Receptionist said that wasn’t allowed they had a policy that guests couldn’t leave dogs in cars in their car park. My dog goes nearly everywhere with me. Often think she’s more at home in car than in the house….

We stayed for two nights for our civil ceremony in July. This event was a low key event for our immediate family but the hotel couldn’t do enough for us. All of our rooms were upgraded free of charge which made it a more special experience for all of us. Our room was decorated for the evening of our civil ceremony which was a lovely surprise to come back to. All staff looked after us very well and were happy to accommodate our requests, including welcoming our photographer and hair stylist on the morning of the event. It was great to have named parking spaces saved for us all too. The room was very spacious and clean with good facilities. We had a lovely stay, thank you!

The AC in the room wasn’t fantastic which did make a difference as the nights we stayed were particularly humid. The parking was very convenient but the barrier at the end was a bit cumbersome as we were leaving and new guests were entering, so it may be easier to just have a button to press to open the gate rather than having to ring reception each time.

Dinner in the Bistro was excellent as expected. The room, which we had stayed in before, was quiet, spacious and comfortable. Drinks in the courtyard garden were very relaxing, as we enjoyed the last of the summer warmth. Good English breakfast too.

Sadly a couple of points. At breakfast I had to ask for milk to go with my coffee and we had to ask also for a second cup as it wasn’t offered. But my main disappointment was no marmalade only strawberry jam, which I hate as it’s too sweet. Why was there no marmalade? Toast without marmalade, just isn’t breakfast.

The food and drink is very good indeed! The room was well provided and it worked.

We are both nearly 80. It was not age friendly. No lift so we had to use the stairs. And there was no handrail on the steps up and down to the front door of the hotel, which was very scary for me. The Checking in and out area was often in gridlock. The hotel management supply a single member of staff at reception. However efficient and charming the staff member might have been, a single human being really does have ONLY ONE pair of hands. Visitors arriving are often exhausted - visitors departing have deadlines to meet. Owners of the chain should employ a member of staff to double up in any department at times of overload. One is left with the sense that the owners of the chain of 'hotel du vin' are exploiting their young bright employees.

Good location. Nice choice at breakfast well cooked. All staff friendly.

I was asked at check in if I would go eco so the room would not be cleaned during our stay. No problem with that so I agreed and as a reward got a drinks voucher to use at the bar. First day room not cleaned as agreed 2nd day the room got cleaned and the voucher which was still in our room was removed. 3rd day room was not cleaned. Maybe this was just a breakdown in communication but seemed underhanded.

Beautiful hotel in a perfect location for visiting Winchester. Our room was fantastic with a very comfortable bed, large bathroom and view into the courtyard. We chose the half board dinner and breakfast option. The dinner included two courses with many choices some of which required paying extra. As you would expect, there was an interesting wine list. The breakfast buffet also offered your choice of freshly cooked eggs, my husband enjoyed the full English while I loved my eggs Benedict.

There was some confusion in the restaurant about the bill with the waiter presenting us with a bill for 100£ despite us having already paid for the room and half board. The confusion was amicably sorted out with us paying the correct amount for our wine and sides on check out. It was not clear as our Booking showed "complete dinner”; on arrival we were told this was for two courses with sides extra.

The staff were delightful! From arrival to departure we were made to feel special. Nothing was too much trouble. The hotel is atmospheric and attractive, and very conveniently situated for the city centre. In the restaurant, food and service were outstanding. The car park is spacious and secure.

We were not told in advance that there is no lift in the main building. Not a problem for us, but it could be for some guests. The road is very busy through both day and night, so it can cause a problem for light sleepers especially if you want fresh air in!

Lovely old town house in the centre of the city. Friendly staff throughout. Comfortable and spacious garden room.

Signage for the car park is poor. I was one of 3 couples completely confused, leading to our parking in a private adjacent car park. Check in was friendly but lengthy and inefficient, especially as we had already checked in online! Please replace the large reusable liquid soaps in the bathrooms, that are easily removed from the racks….hygiene issue!

Pre booked parking space was clearly marked and ready. The hotel upgraded our room because it was our anniversary. Totally unexpected so a real treat. The staff were friendly and attentive eg blankets and cushion were given to us when we wanted to sit out in the courtyard in the evening.

We could open the window in our room to it felt a little stuffy. I understand that it's for safety reasons so not sure what could be done.
