Unübertroffene Lage in einer tollen Altstadt
Pros:

Tolle Lage direkt am Cathedral Close, freundliches junges Team und gute Küche. Altes Gebäude toll renoviert, authentisch.

Cons:

Nichts, Parkplatz nur mit Glück in der Nähe zu finden, aber dafür kann das Hotel nichts

Historic small inn in the heart of Winchester cosy with excellent breakfast
Pros:

The location absolutely central but quiet as next to the cathedral park - the bar closes at 11pm and is very friendly. Breakfast was fantastic. Great sized room very comfortable with a place to eat, sofa to relax and a good set of furniture to unpack our clothes- we were travelling to a wedding so it was perfect

Cons:

The only thing I didn’t like was the plug in air fresheners- and it was difficult to open the windows enough so it got very warm and a bit stuffy

Really nice old inn with excellent staff in a great location
Pros:

Very nice old inn, lovely staff, perfect location for Winchester, good breakfast. I think we'd definitely book this again on a further visit to the city.

Cons:

the parking on arrival was a little bit stressful, it would be useful if they sent out the parking map they give you on checking in in advance. Once you know where you can park it's easy.

A wonderful short stay 😁
Pros:

Charm, convenience, quaintness and welcome.

Cons:

As it’s so central, we had to relocate the car once midday arrived on the day of departure to continue our sightseeing. But the very central position does compensate.

Enjoyed our stay and would stay again
Pros:

It was very convenient to things we wanted to see. There were several restaurants within easy walking distance plus the one at the Inn. The shower was great with good supply of hot water. The staff were very helpful. They arranged for a car to drive us to Southampton for our cruise.

Cons:

The room was on the front of the building and due to heat we had windows open. If we went to bed early could hear noise from people sitting outside of pub.
