Hotel is ideally placed if you want to explore Winchester. Hotel restaurant Alfred’s serves amazing food albeit a bit expensive. Room is art deco in them. If you want to watch television though forget it. Digital channels cutting out continuously. Spa facilities are small.

The room was very dark, so not the best for getting ready to go out. Everything else was good. Shower is great, bed very comfortable. Breakfast was nice. They did run out of plates quite often and I had to hold up the queue for a bit while waiting for a plate. The coffee was ridiculous, my husband likes strong coffee but honestly it was like gravy, he had to put a whole milk jug in and it still wasn't really drinkable. No idea what went wrong there! A pleasant stay though.

Modern and comfortable hotel close to town centre.

Lovely spacious room with a big comfy bed. Good facilities like an ironing board, coffee station and hair dryer. The spa was lovely and modern. Sauna, steam room, hot tub and pool all clean and relaxing. Comfortable bar with a good selection of wines and cocktails. Would definitely stay again.
