Very nice room, good size and comfortable, large, clean ensuite with nice toiletries. We should have had a £10 drinks credit but were not told about this on check in - only remembered when we got home, when it was too late - would have been good to have this pointed out when we arrived as we would have enjoyed a drink at the bar. We would have liked to use the spa facilities but they closed at 7pm (Sunday) which unfortunately didn't give us enough time to use them due to our plans in Winchester - not sure why they closed so early, but this was one of the reasons we booked the hotel, so this was disappointing. Fairly easy to walk into Winchester, so location was good for us.

Staff were friendly throughout. Hotel was clean, well decorated and comfortable. The spa was fabulous and a welcome addition after a day of walking in Winchester. This is likely more of a personal request but since they have communal changing areas, bigger towels for those guests that just can't quite fit normal towels would be an appreciated addition - it's the little things!

I definitely wouldn’t rate this as a 4 star hotel. The toilet hadn’t been clean which is a pretty basic, and no full length mirror in the bedroom, again a basic facility which should be there. I didn’t eat breakfast so can’t comment on food.

Spa area was amazing, very relaxing experience and friendly staff. It felt very luxury being in the spa area and pool and jacuzzi also luxurious. Bathroom could do with some general maintenance i.e. shelf fittings loose and shower head leaking. Shower also did not have any symbols for hot/cold or on/off so took time to figure out how to have the right temperature. Pillows also too soft to sleep on causing neck pain. Internet also very poor in the room.
