The Winchester Hotel & Spa

8/10 Good
"Great location a very short walk into main Winchester. All staff very friendly and said hello! Comfy bed, good facilities in the room (USB ports, coffee and tea, inroning board and iron). Beautiful smelling toiletries in the bathroom! And the pool and sauna etc was not huge but very nice and chilled despite being well attended. Breakfast ok - busy but things were kept topped up. Parking could be clearer when booking. Its a council carpark which isnt expensive but you do need to pay at certain times during the day OR hotel carpark but also not free. No hardship but always better to know than be surprised, I think my booking might have said 'free parking' which it wasn't. But overall would defintely stay again!"
