Liked: Amenities
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!

Nice old property food great difficult parking after 200 hundred mile journey room clean and tidy nice garden outlook but have to say is does not justify the price but I suppose that’s because it is Winchester
Very good location but through traffic was bit difficult. Staff Very helpful but seemed overwhelmed one evening. Parking got very congested on the Saturday. Liked the relaxing decor and atmosphere. I'd go back.
Great location for all amenities, really comfortable and well decorated room. Toothpaste in the sink which was the only fault of the whole stay. Great choice at breakfast with good quality food. Would stay here again.
Staff extremely helpful. Room nice and pretty good sized. But be aware there's no A/C nor an elevator. I'd stay there again, but perhaps not in the summer.
Charming hotel, quiet and very central to everything in the city. My only observation was that the mattress wasn’t the most comfortable - it seemed quite well used.., otherwise it was great
