I am a solo woman traveling from Canada and I am so happy I chose this hotel for a few days before my cruise out of Southampton. Everything was amazing, from the attentive and very helpful staff to the overall ambiance, my stay here was incredible! My room was so beautiful with views of the Winchester museum and the hotel just minutes away from the Cathedral. My bed was very comfy and I loved all the extra amenities included in the room! I also appreciated the towel warmer aftermy shower! I enjoyed the included breakfast, which you could have either in the restaurant or have delivered to your room! Hands down, I would stay here again in a heartbeat and I highly recommend this place.
