The property itself is lovely, it has a beautiful courtyard (fro drinks/lunch) and is only a 2 minute walk to Winchester town centre. My main feedback would be on the issue of staff training. They don't look around and see if anyone would like drinks (they deliver to another table and rush off). You sometimes have to find people to assist you and they weren't short of staff. This happened at least 3-4 times. One breakfast time we went down at 10 am and it doesn't finish untill 11am but already they were clearing things away/not replenshing the breakfast buffet so the choice was limited and we had to ask for simple things like water glasses. For the price of the room I would expect much more proactive service. For that reason I don't think I'd stay here again.

Staff was extremely helpful, great location. Nice garden. Had to move rooms because AC didn’t work. Historic building has limitations, such as a very squeaky floor and no lift.

A Wonderful Stay
We had a truly fabulous two-night stay at the Hotel du Vin. Excellent and friendly staff provided wonderful service. On our first night we opted for the tasting menu, which was first class. That evening we were served by Hannah and the hotel’s sommelier, Evangelos, both of whom deserve a particular mention as they made the evening very special. I would not hesitate to recommend the hotel and would definitely be willing to stay there again in the future.

Great staff and a really nice hotel. But...they have no or little aircon so summer days mean that the rooms are too hot and uncomfortable. A big shame as it ticks all the other boxes.

Having paid £300 for one night I was not expecting the property to be as run down as it was. Check-in was delayed by 2 hours, the shower was so weak I couldnt wash the shampoo out of my hair or the soap off my body, there was a bartender (tall, waistcoat, beard) who was extremely rude even though we had been waiting 2 hours for our room!!! The bed had two big dips in each side. All in all an extremely poor overall experience. Save your money and stay at the travelodge!

My room was unbelievably hot, i didn't sleep due to being so uncomfortable. Main light didn't work and there were hairs on the bathroom sink. Such a shame as good location to Winchester high street and a lovely courtyard out the back.

Faultless
Had just one night’s stay at this hotel and wished we’d organised to stay a little longer. Very well situated for the high street and cathedral. Food was amazing- we had breakfast included and opted to have dinner there too. Ate dinner outside as it was such a lovely evening. Could not fault.
