I am disabled and use a wheelchair. I was in an accessible bedroom with accessible bathroom. The bathroom was unsafe. The floor tiles were slippery and I almost fell over. There were not enough handrails. The toilet was really low. There was no hot water in the sink. I felt very unsafe and would not recommend this to other wheelchair users. The bathroom was designed very badly.

It’s a supremely comfortable hotel. The staff are excellent. Really amenable & helpful. Hugely appreciated the front desk teams various kinds of assistance. And the hospitality team are ace too. Toby went above and beyond to also help with a tech matter. Medi was a delight on the bar. Thanks to all!

Top Class

Love The Winchester Hotel and Spa. Can’t wait to return. The Spa facilities are amazing, breakfast up there with the best but the most appropriated was the quality of the staff, so welcoming, courteous and professional. All this and a short walk into town centre. Thank you all!! ❤️

Great location with an easy walk to the centre. Clean, warm and comfortable stay. Parking was easy and reasonable (extra cost). Tea tray a little disappointing for the style of hotel.

Amazing Hotel !

We have just got back from an incredible stay at the Winchester Spa Hotel. From the moment we stepped through the entrance till the time we checked out. The reception staff were polite and helpful, the foyer was beautiful decorated. Our room was close to the spa which was an excellent location. We stayed 1 night to go to the Christmas market, wished we’d have had 2 nights though. The town is a 10 min walk with lots of nice bars and restaurants. We had brunch at Kavi Coffee which I can highly recommend and also a drink at the Cabinet Rooms again excellent. We had dinner at the hotel restaurant, the food was amazing and well presented. Lovely staff. We enjoyed the spa which was fairly quiet considering it was a busy Christmas weekend, so able to use the jacuzzi, sauna and pool, and the beautiful relaxation room. Which had drinks and fruit provided. I can honestly say the whole weekend was amazing. Parking is provided at a cost. A lovely surprise was a voucher towards a drink per room. Not sure how long the offer would be on for though. I can highly recommend the hotel and Winchester itself for a weekend break.
