Visiting daughter at the university. Always love visiting Winchester. Found some wonderful walks this time along the river and also a good walk up Saint Catherine's Hill with views all across Winchester and further afield. Wonderful pubs and vibrant atmosphere.

We have grown to love Hampshire so much as the people there seem the most lovely wherever we go. We went to the Jane Austin House and I said this to a lovely man who was one of the curators and he said 'that is Hampshire people and that is why we moved here'. Winchester itself is beautiful not just the Cathedral or Great Hall or the Mill but spending an hour or so sitting outside one of the many establishments watching the world (and their dogs - we've never been anywhere where there were so many dogs and we argued which we should get). We both work hard but upon arrival we just completely relaxed. Other recommendations the Bangkok Bistrot restaurant in Jewry Street (we also saw the Grayson Perry Exhibit in the same Road), the Sunday morning antiques and retro and other market - I bought two wonderful things I will cherish, but above all the happiness everyone exuded, we will be back. This trip was short but there is so much to see (and also so many of my favourite shops, more than actually accessible in where I live in Kensington but in Winchester all in the high street - the White Company, Hobbs x 20!)
As you can tell we fell in love with Winchester!!

Winchester is a delightful place to visit.
Winchester is a delightful place to visit. It blends the old with the new extremely well. The cathedral has to be seen inside. A guided tour is available which is essential to appreciate fully the cathedral's remarkable history.
Further attractions are the wide range of excellent restaurants and pubs,museums and historic buildings.

Lovely historical sites and museums.
Lovely historical sites and museums. A walk along the trail was refreshing and seeing Winchester from Saint Catherine's Hill and lunch at the Handle Bar cafe at Saint Catherine's Hill was good value for money, lovely fresh panini's and friendly staff, not to mention the cake.
Plenty of eateries on an evening and quaint streets.

Winchester is a charming city which needs you to fully...
Winchester is a charming city which needs you to fully explore. As well as the Cathedral and Great Hall, you should walk right to the end of the High Street as see what is down each street- particularly at the top of the town. There is a wide variety of cafes and restaurants. We had a Nepalese meal at Marse which was great with "ancient grains".
The Tourist Information Centre were fantastically helpful. Do walk the Water Meadows on the other side of the Cathedral and visit St Cross- following the river and in the spirit of John Keats. Finally, walk around the ruins of Wolvesey Castle.
Every member of staff we encountered was friendly and helpful. People often complain about the standard of food in "corporate" hotels - the menu was understandably restricted in choice but our meals were well presented, the portions were generous and the quality was excellent. Breakfast was very good with plenty of choice.
The hotel is also easy to get to, being on a peripheral road but only a few minutes drive from the city centre. Ideal for visiting Winchester and it's surrounding area
We had several rooms (all across the street from the main hotel). Single rooms are small but adequate. A double room was luxurious for this type of inn. The location is super, just outside of the old town wall and a short walk from the cathedral and town center. Very good breakfasts. We enjoyed a guided tour of Winchester College ( a school with more than a passing resemblance to Hogwarts) and walks along the small river that are near Wykeham Arms.
From the minute we arrived (during what looked like a busy restaurant service) we were made to feel extremely welcome. They had upgraded our room, which was extremely comfortable, immaculately clean and quiet. Superb facilities, everything you could need. The location is stunning just a 3.5 scenic walk into Winchester. The breakfast the next morning was brought to the room and was absolutely EPIC.
It is our second stay at the Running Horse. It is good value for money and rooms are nicely decorated and comfortable. The toiletries in the bathroom are really good. Staff is very friendly and helpful. The breakfast is ok but slightly overpriced as the ingredients and the coffe are average. The location is in a pretty village just outside Winchester and there is free parking at the hotel.
We used the spa everyday, and found it very clean, I liked being able to dress for swimming in our room and wear a robe to the spa.
Breakfast was a good quality buffet.
Winchester is a lovely old city with lots of eateries and old buildings of interest especially the cathedral. We could walk from the hotel to the city centre in about 10 to 15 minutes
* Location of hotel, with an exceptional view of Winchester Cathedral
* Willingness of staff to help
* Comfortable room (the deluxe double)
* Good-quality breakfast
* Proximity to town centre
*Pre-ordered prosecco was presented as a complementary gesture, as it was delayed by a day (and thus spoiled the surprise on check-in)
The location is fab. I've stayed here twice now - definitely worth booking the larger double as it is more than doubly nice (get a kettle and tea in the larger room, but not in the smaller?). The hotel was clearly once great and now is just a bit run down and shabby. Having said that, you can't get better value for money in Winchester!
When I booked this I was told it was on the M3 at Winchester. When I got there I found it was nearer to Basingstoke . It’s a ridiculous scenario to have to drive so far out of the way north bound and then all the way back southbound to get to the hotel. The taxi from fair oak was £58. I was shocked beyond belief!
We enjoyed the stay at the Winchester Royal Hotel. It is a fun historical hotel and we enjoyed our room in the old part of the hotel with all the twists, turns, and steps to get to the room. Our room was clean and the bed comfortable. About a 10 minute walk from the train station.
Beautiful neighborhood with gorgeous greenery and landscaping. Gorgeous views, closes to multiple footpaths, convient location for access to nice pubs, sites and Winchester. The studio flat was modern and thoughtfully designed, and stocked with quality items for a comfortable stay.
Booked last minute as came to Winchester for a night out for my birthday! We got at a bargain price on the day, literelly a 10 min walk into the night life which was perfect. Hotel had everything we needed for an overnight stay and will definitely stay again xxx
The location near to the centre of Winchester. The garden and the quiet location, no traffic noise. The car parking was very close and convenient. We liked the overall ambiance of the Hotel.
