The Old Vine

We had a wonderful stay at The Old Vine in Winchester, which is perfectly located for exploring the city — shops, cafés, and historic sights are all just moments away. It’s an easy 10 to 15 minute walk from Winchester railway station when you arrive. Our room was absolutely charming, a lovely blend of character and comfort. Visiting in Summer 2026, we were especially grateful for the portable air conditioning unit, which kept us refreshed and our room cool — a small detail that made a big difference. At one point, a staff member also popped by with a small vase of gorgeous flowers for our room, which was a really beautiful and thoughtful touch. Located opposite the park that leads directly to Winchester Cathedral, The Old Vine puts the historic heart of the city right on your doorstep making sightseeing effortlessly easy. We’d highly recommend The Old Vine to anyone after a relaxing, comfortable stay with wonderfully attentive, friendly staff and a truly unbeatable central location in Winchester. We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back again!

All the staff were absolutely delightful. Professional and exceptionally polite and helpful. The rooms were very comfortable and very well equipped. The fact that it was right in the centre of the town with views of the cathedral.

Location

Limited, difficult access. Very limited parking. Staff was a bit chaotic and disorganized on our arrival. Attempting to work bar, restaurant and check in simultaneously. Too few people.
