Great service, ambience and location excellent. Very close to town centre with parking. Restaurant very good. Excellent breakfast. Recommend. (Although not noisy after closing time, rooms are above a busy pub/restaurant which might not suit everyone}.

Wonderful location near the center of Winchester. Had a single room which was a reasonable size. En-suite was well stocked with shampoo, conditioner etc…. Also had coffee and tea in the room.

Old fashioned hotel.Modern vibe.Pleasing meli-melo

Hisoric building crammed with antiques and curios assembled by a previous owner over many years. Creaking staircases and corridors set one in mind of the 1950's. But the bedrooms are clean, modern and well-designed, the staff are super friendly, the pub is a lot of fun to be in, and the breakfast is very good. Plus the cathedral and school are on the doorstep...and free car parking is a boom.

Great location; staff very pleasant & helpful; rooms are small, & lots of stairs, but typical of old building; decent breakfast; really good house pie. No a/c, which was a problem as heat wave hit when we were there (early September); the two fans provided helped a lot.

Perfect in so many ways.

During my stay at the Wykeham Arms, I stayed in two different rooms since I decided to extend my visit by an extra night. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. The La Boîte room is perfect for a solo traveller, while on my third night, I stayed in the Cannon double room, which was also perfect for travellers. Both rooms were exceptionally clean, modern, and comfortable. Whether it's for food, drinks, an overnight stay, or all of the above, the Wykeham would be my first choice. Thanks so much. Ciarán

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Perfect location for cathedral, shops , museums,. Pub had Lots of character. Room was excellent, spacious , well fitted out. (note rooms are opposite pub) Car parking at site was great. Bathroom radiator didnt work which was disappointing as we had wet towels to dry (asked to be fixed, but no follow up). Tissues left on bed after room service. Remarkably quiet as rooms across road from the actual pub itself. Could have done with more soap etc after cleaning room. Disappointed on first night as had meal in restaurant , but waited 1.25 hours to be served after order. We were communicated to but spoilt the evening also cancelled next nights booking .
