Lovely pub. Good service and lots of character. Only real negative is a tricky and noisy toilet cistern.

I found the room really uncomfortable, shower room and toilet were dirty. They also offer free breakfast but this only consists of granola, yoghurt & an orange. The most disappointing part of my stay though was that the wifi connection in the room was absolutley awful. The host offered me to book a table down in the restaurant, but i would expect to have a similar wifi reception in my room as i would recieve in the bar.

Xmas break
The hotel was fairly close to the town centre we arrived before the pub was open so couldn't park the car there as you need a on street permit so had to go to the town centre car park. The room was cosy and we had a very nice evening meal we tried their pies, the pub was busy with a good atmosphere only a small criticism was the 10 percentage charge on the bill that put a glass on cheap wine over £9.00.

A hidden gem in Winchester. Cosy room with some nice touches like real coffee and a mini cafetière. Friendly staff, and the pub itself does great food. The TV was damaged and had a line across the middle, which was a bit annoying, but obviously we didn’t book the hotel for the TV! Excellent value and a nice place to use as our base for a few days while visiting family.

Cosy rooms above a great pub.
Fabulous location in a very quiet residential area. Literally 5 minute walk into the city centre. Pub is quirky , warm & welcoming. Our room was spacious , very comfortable beds & fabulously clean . We were treated to loads of tea/coffee , yoghurt, delicious granola, muffins & fruit for breakfast..perfect ! Shower was powerful & hot . Wifi good. Not a complaint but rooms now in need of a little TLC . We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here.

We liked:- - the very individual character of the pub - proximity to railway station & city centre - friendly staff - good quality food (evening meal). Not so good :- - our room had a 'dog' smell, particularly noticeable every time we entered the room. - the lack of a normal breakfast service - no hot food available, and the 'complimentary' snack breakfast had to be eaten in our room, which did not have a dining table or chairs. Surely a breakfast service, even if only continental, could have been provided in the bar area.
