The family apartment at The Old Vine where we stayed was an excellent accommodation. It's located in a separate building from the pub. There's a lot of space over 3 floors - the photos don't do it justice! The lounge is very cosy with a large sofa bed and armchair. The table in the lounge is suitable for doing work on a laptop etc. The WiFi connection was fine as well. The location of the apartment is very central - right next to the cathedral green, the city museum and the high street with lots of restaurants and shops. Other attractions (such as the hall with King Arthur's round table and the National Trust water mill) are within a walkable distance. The breakfast menu options are very generous, and the pub has good food options throughout the day. It was nice to be able to park the car in a space recommended by the host (detailed instructions are given) and enjoy some car-free time for a couple of days. We can't wait to go back to Winchester to explore it further, and The Old Vine will be our first choice of accommodation - to stay either as a couple or as a family.

Great room, food and staff
Lovely one night stop over at the Old Vine. We arrived on a sinday and decided to have a sunday roast in the restaurant. Highly recommended the restaurant, food and service was great. Staff are all very knowledgeable, friendly and polite. We were shown up to our room and was supprised at how big it was. Very comfortable and perfect location for a stroll around the town and cathedral. Slight down side was noise fron delivery vehicles early morning but the hotel had provided ear plugs and they worked a treat. We would definitely stay here again

This was my second stay at the Old Vine this year, and I have had another lovely time - excellent service from staff, and a beautiful, comfortable, spacious and clean room, with wonderful amenities. The breakfast is also amazing, and a huge selling point as it is included in the price. I will definitely be coming here again! Thank you!

A fabulous stay!
Had a fabulous stay at this gorgeous traditional inn. Rooms are beautiful, spacious and clean, with good amenities, such as a Nespresso coffee machine, and complimentary items in the fridge and bathroom. Service from staff was wonderful and friendly, and the included breakfast is amazing. Location is exceptional, right on the square opposite the cathedral, with easy access to the high street and the train station. I loved my stay, and definitely hope to stay again. Thank you to the Old Vine!
