Overall, a disappointing experience with poor communication and attention to detail. Would not recommend.
Cons:

There were a number of issues with this stay.

Firstly, I had asked whether we could drop off a bag around 10am, which was confirmed. However, when we arrived the property was closed and no one answered the phone, we had to knock on the doors until, thankfully, the cleaning lady opened up and let us leave the bag.

The rubbish in the room had not been cleaned (photo attached). The pillows were very uncomfortable to sleep on and the windows provided no sound insulation you could hear everything from outside.

We also requested a room change prior to our arrival, as the room was available, but our request was ignored.

Overall, a disappointing experience with poor communication and attention to detail. Would not recommend.

Satisfactory, but not likely to be repeated.
Pros:

Location fairly good.

Cons:

A simple electric kettle rather than a modern coffee machine would have been preferable

Early morning loud activity (6 am) was disturbing.

Lovely little hotel close to town centre
Pros:

Cute, cosy room! It had everything we needed for a weekend. The staff was super lovely and fulfilled every special request we had :) Would definitely come back!

Cons:

The recommended patisserie opposite is sadly closed, therefore you’ll have to walk into town for breakfast.

Pros:

Størrelsen på værelset. Og at man var uforstyrret. Og beliggenheden var fantastisk i forhold til hvad man se i Winchester.

Cons:

At når man var længe ude og kom tilbage virkede det tomt. Føltes som et restaurant med værelser og ikke andet.

Pros:

It is so central to everything.
A lovely generous sized room and worth it.
It’s only 1 easy flight of stairs to all rooms.
I will definitely stay here again
The carpark is nearby £7.50 for 24 hours.

Cons:

Some paintwork a little tired

A nice hotel but not exclusive, overpriced for what it is.
Pros:

Very convenient location, nice that there's a sushi restaurant in house. Nice decor in the room and all very clean and tidy

Cons:

It was overpriced for what it is, rather than being an exclusive hotel it's a bit underwhelming, especially the odd back of house feel to the entrance and lack of reception. The room has very old lead glazed windows which are charming in an old building but also very poor at keeping out the street noise, you could literally listen to conversations out in the street with the windows closed. Similarly, the restaurant is good standard but not special, just overpriced.
