Mercure Hotels in Winchester

Lovely hotel and spa . Only let down was the car park attached to hotel only has one way in , no exit very very dangerous there was four of us grid locked inside it. Lucky we were all good drivers and managed to exit . There is a public one outside , but hotel car park is very limited and dangerous hardly any room inside , weird old shape and reverse driving more than forward . Hotel are cash less and there attitude was.... ah na , sorry cashless system . Shop up road. that's all they could offer don't give a dam how you park. Also took 160 deposit and will return sometime after. At later date. That was the real letdown reception staff.. .. not my problem attitude was poor. While the people that did get in hotel carpark was lucky to pay at reception off there deposit. Such poor service for such a lovely hotel. Apart from that the rest good.

I stayed on Christmas night so perhaps not typical experience. Staff were friendly and didn't resent being there. The value for money is pretty good, the dining area is decent enough and the mattress comfortable. I prefer rooms with radiators than aircon in winter, so I had my usual issue of finding it bit too noisy at night, but I'm quirky like that. There's free wi-fi but it's not as good as the £5 (a day?) upgraded service, so you might want to be aware of that. Bathroom is ok, there's no delay running hot water but don't expect bath robes or any kind of extras beyond the standard three towel routine. But they have rooms with baths, which is good. There's a cheap, not free, carpark. All in all it was fine.

The room and the price match. The breakfast at 12 pounds is good, which is more affordable than the outside. There was a problem at the time of settlement, and I calculated two extra nights of room charges. After I found out, I went back to the hotel to ask the staff to refund, but in the end I returned to the bank and still lost more than ten pounds. Maybe it was the difference in currency exchange? Tax? The hotel email address is wrong and the communication is not smooth. Ctrip's customer service is enthusiastic, but it seems to have little effect.

Pretty basic no frills hotel but quiet and clean with a good comfortable bed and well equipped shower room. Rooms are a good size. Easy to find. Good parking. Polite and helpful staff.

Mengmeng's trip to the UK this time is a self-driving tour, so we went to some very niche attractions and checked in a very special five-star manor hotel. One of my favorite hotels is the Lanstern Hotel next to Southampton. The quaint manor really has the sense of being a movie blockbuster, and bicycles can be rented, and then take a circle in the surrounding forest. It feels great! ⛄⛄⛄ The coordinates of the hotel are SO212LT. It is about 7 minutes drive to Winchester Cathedral and about 25 minutes drive to Southampton. The entire hotel was converted into a 17th-century manor. So the biggest feature is that it is particularly large. According to the steward, it covers 63 acres! It took us more than half an hour to shuttle through the hotel's corridors without even finishing. In addition, the hotel was hung with oil paintings of the Louis period, and a lot of antique furniture was placed. So I often watch European and American novels and movies always feel a little bit cold. Coupled with the surrounding forest, unknown birds such as cuckoos have been calling, adding a little fear. ⛄⛄⛄ The environment is really beautiful, I feel a little afraid that it is actually my psychological role! In fact, the occupancy rate is particularly high, not only foreigners, but many British people like to live in such a manor hotel! The decoration of the room is very elegant and new, with about 50 rooms. The style of each room is different. Some rooms have a British four-poster bed! The bathtub in the room is also equipped with a TV and a spa. Bath products are also very high-end brands! ⭐⭐⭐ The mascot of the hotel is an owl. This hotel not only has an owl puppet in the room, but the hotel owner really has an owl! You can pay for feeding the owl, and train her to fly to your arm. It's just that Owl Cafe is everywhere in Japan, so we didn't train raptors, and families with children can try it. 🥘🥘🥘 Be sure to boast that the hotel breakfast is really delicious! It was later discovered that this restaurant was an award-winning restaurant, using local produce and herbs and vegetables grown in the hotel's back garden. During our trip to the UK, the breakfast we chose in each hotel was a full English breakfast. But only the black mushrooms in this hotel are particularly thick, probably picked from the nearby forest! Bacon and ham are not too salty. It ’s enough. I ate a CD! Dinner is delicious too! There is also a 24-hour room service. 🌲🌲🌲 The hotel's front yard, backyard, and corridors are particularly suitable for taking photos. There is a tennis court ahead. The parking lot is an English garden. The price of this hotel is really very suitable, five-star service, but the double room only costs 900 yuan, and also includes double breakfast. If you are driving near Winchester, I highly recommend staying here!

I had a lovely overnight stay at the Old Vine hotel. I was visiting Winchester to visit the cathedral and I couldn't have picked a more central location with easy access to the cathedral. I was put in the Zoffany Room at the front of the hotel and despite being over the pub and dining rooms I didn't experience any distracting noise from the patrons downstairs and being at the front of the hotel gave a nice view onto the cathedral grounds. The room was spacious and well proportioned, fully of character and charm and had all the amenities you'd expect. The bed was large and comfortable as were the arm chairs. The bathroom was also of a very generous size, very clean with a good sized combined bath and shower. My only suggestion to the hotel may be to move away from small individual single-use plastic bath products to improve environmental sustainability. The breakfast was served downstairs in the main pub dining area, which was welcoming but not overly busy. The breakfast itself was very good. Great local ingredients in my vegetarian full English breakfast. The staff were all lovely and very helpful, friendly and professional. I'd be very happy to stay here again if I were to visit Winchester in the future.

My husband and I enjoy our visits to this lovely, characterful pub. The only comment I wanted to make was about the desserts, that although presented beautifully, I don’t find as satisfying as last year. I think the new ‘buffalo?’ Ice-cream is too light and lacking in substance. It feels more like a diet option, I understand it would appeal to some. The chocolate torte-like dessert tasted nice but was too hard to get the spoon through the lower section without it shooting off the plate. Sticky toffee pudding with sautéed banana was delicious but again, a different option to the ice-cream that feels like sorbet would be great. The puddings are expensive but of high quality, but one expects to feel satisfied and full after one. The peaches were delicious but again the ice-cream too light and ultimately unfulfilling.

Staff excellent especially Abby on Reception, so welcoming and nothing too much trouble. Perfect welcome. Spacious room, excellent bathroom spotlessly clean. Excellent location. Electric heater made room perfectly warm. Bar and entrance area excellent. Loved the style and quirkiness - reminded us of Canadian hotels ( quality of some much worse ) and Disney Wilderness Lodge. Perfect. Breakfast excellent. Dinner not so much. This is not a Boutique Hotel so perhaps the name Bespoke Hotels sets it up to fail, sadly. Yes it needs new mattresses and mattress covers are a MUST. Agree that dining room chairs need cleaning and much dusting required. It could be so much better - just TLC - But no where near as bad as the horrible reviews which nearly out us off. We Loved It !! Can't wait to come back....Thank You :) :) :)
