Reviews and Ratings
Our stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms were lovely and quiet, although a little small for a junior suite, but we appreciated the peaceful atmosphere. The service was a mix of dismissive and friendly interactions, with some aspects needing improvement. The location was fantastic for exploring the area, but there were a few noise disturbances. The dining experience was satisfactory but lacked value for money. Overall, a decent stay with room for enhancement.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were a delight, complete with a Christmas wreath on the door. The atmosphere in the hotel was wonderful, and the staff were so friendly and accommodating. However, the value for money could be improved, and the dining experience had its ups and downs.

My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The room was excellent, clean, cool, and comfortable, with views of the cathedral. However, the early morning disturbances by the cleaner impacted our sleep quality.

The location was superb for exploring Winchester, with easy access to the town center and main attractions. The dining experience offered well-prepared meals, although there were minor issues with some dishes. Overall, a good value for money stay.
