Historic pub and rooms with tourism a short walk away

Breakfast was superb, as was staff. Welcoming, lively pub. Dinner menu interesting and varied. Just a short walk to many of the tourist attractions. Quiet room. However, be prepared for stairs to the rooms.

No complaints.

Great people, fantastic space, old building

Great location, amazing breakfast, fantastic pub

There’s no indication on Booking.com that the bedrooms are in a building outside the pub, and that has 2 floors. If this information was on the site, I would not have stayed because it is difficult for me to use stairs. My bedroom was on the 2nd floor, my bed was not right and the floor was creaking, so it was very annoying. But the staff was absolutely brilliant and moved me to another room that was lovely.

Excellent! Have already recommended to others.

Welcoming, smiley and helpful staff. Good service. Great breakfasts and delicious dinners.

I found the stairs to La Boite challenging, but in fairness I had been warned about them and I managed.

Canadians at The Wykeham Arms

The staff were excellent. We were welcomed with open arms and treated like Royalty throughout our stay. Food was excellent, and the beer divine!

Not a thing!

The perfect place to stay in Winchester if you want a bit of character

Immaculately turned out, old school English pub with accommodation opposite.

Car parking was very tight, but clearly due to the surroundings, there isn’t anything which can be done to change that.

Warm welcome to a homely, traditional pub. No request too much trouble.

Hotel staff, food, cleanliness excellent. Room was good, but a shame that they did not give us 2 rooms nearby. One was across the road in separate accommodation. Lounge, bar area very welcoming. Pity there was no garden/outside space.

Cost a little high, especially evening meal, so we didn't eat there the second day.

A brilliant, smart modern pub / hotel with many period features, set in a beautiful old part of Winchester

The pub and the hotel rooms were lovely. Situated in charming period back streets. The staff were fantastic. Nothing was too much trouble.

The dinner I bought was outstanding. I had a Pork loin roast dinner and it was the absolute best roast dinner I have ever had. I plan to go back to the hotel and have a roast dinner - I live in Kent but the journey wouldn't matter given the quality of the food.

The food was excellent. We had dinner at the pub; the atmosphere was good and the food delicious. There were plenty of non-meat options as well as meat on the menu. The location was lovely, a beautiful and quiet area just around the corner from the Cathedral.

The stairs up to the room were steep and narrow, but were because of the age and conservation area. Whilst we might prefer another room, it will not put us off coming.

Excellent location, friendly attentive staff, great facilities in the room, tasty breakfast, very clean.

Superb

The room was lovely and the staff were really kind. My car was playing up and the manager sorted out the problem for me which was great.

I would have liked at least a couple more breakfast teabags in my room. I had one. And there was no milk on the table or in the fridge. I would rather have had my dinner near other diners in the bar rather than being segregated as a singleton in a side room!

Loved Winchester but for us the Wykeham Arms was a real disappointment!

Brilliant location. Good service and very friendly and professional staff. The free on-site carpark was a real bonus. The pub is lovely, very cosy and traditional with lots of history and on first impressions the room was lovely too. The breakfast was also very nice.

Immediately on check-in we were informed there was an extra charge of £15 for our dog. Which surprised me as I had not seen mention of this on the Booking.com website (rather than putting charges 'may apply' I think additional charges like this should be clearly stated at the time of booking). We were shown to our room, which was lovely, however it became clear later that evening that it wasn't as lovely as we had initially thought. The room was really hot, despite having the radiators off and the window wide open. The bed was also dreadful. Really, really uncomfortable and creaked very loudly every time you moved. In addition to this, our room was the first one by the stairs meaning everyone passed it on the way to their rooms, so it was quite noisy. As a result our dog couldn't settle and constantly growled at the people walking by. This is something the hotel should take into account when allocating rooms so that travelers with dogs are put in quiet rooms away from the main areas. Luckily our dog isn't a barker, so she wouldn't have disturbed other guests, just us! All in all a very uncomfortable and sleepless night, which cost £174 for B&B - not good value!!

Single room, cute but tiny

Personal touches: beer, chocolate. Breakfast - the variety and their willingness to accommodate you - was absolutely excellent.

Huge construction was going on. Told only weeks before. There was no refund offered, only a tiny reduction in price, but it was VERY noisy, most of the time and nowhere to eat dinner close by. Most of the TV channels didn't work.
