Pros:

Fantastisk morgenmad og autentisk britisk pub-stemning! Meget centralt beliggende i Winchester, som viste sig at være yderst pæn og charmerende at gå rundt i.

Excellent location, lovely hotel

The Old Vine is a beautiful old building right in the heart of town center within walking distance to everything. The Cathedral is literally across from it. The service is excellent. Our room was large, beautifully decorated and very comfortable.

Cons:

Nothing

Central place - recommend more if no car....
Pros:

Very central. We had a big room with two beds and a big bath room which was nice (but no window to open). It was surprisingly quiet during the night. Very friendly manager - helping with the suitcases while my partner tried to find a parking lot...

Cons:

All these carpets are not really modern anymore but it's very usual in England still. Had to search 50 min. for an available Parking lot in the blue zone which is free of charge...

What a fantastic find
Pros:

Stayed here for 2 nights. The whole experience was fantastic. Our room was lovely, comfy beds and a well supplied en-suite. The staff were friendly and efficient and the food was delightful. The hotel is is very central enabling us to walk to all the sights. Parking can get a little interesting but if you are lucking, they have a small garage into which I managed to squeeze a medium sided SUV. Definitely recommended. We'll be back.

Pros:

Excellent location, central but in a quiet location close to the cathedral. The annexe is very well equipped for a short stay, with kitchen facilities as well as offering very comfortable living space and bedrooms. Breakfast options, served to your table, are of the highest quality. Dinner choices likewise very good. Staff are great.

Cons:

Not a serious criticism, but some of the furnishings in the living area are looking worn.
