My husband and I spent a night in this delightful pub on our way home from France. We were very warmly welcomed and shown to our room. We had the most delicious evening meal served by a very pleasant caring waitress with a sense of humour. We had an excellent nights sleep. Despite it being a pub there wasn't a... More

We stayed at this pub in the center of Winchester for 3 nights in late April 2013. The owners were really friendly and efficient and made our stay memorable. The food (breakfast and dinner) were good and very reasonable priced. Service from the bar was excellent. It would have been nice to use their garden seating etc. but the weather... More

Me and my family went for a meal at the King Alfred, of which we all enjoyed. However, upon receiving my Duck Risotto, I instantly noticed it wasn't a Risotto at all, but simply rice, and not cooked at all like risotto. I still really enjoyed my meal and had no qualms as such, but when our waitress asked if... More

The pub is located in a quiet residential area. I spent one night in the "small twin" room (Room 2), which was pleasantly furnished. The room and ensuite bathroom were spotlessly clean, and the shower was invigoratingly powerful. A parking permit was provided, so I could leave the car in the road outside and take a short walk into the... More

We stayed for 2 nights over Easter. First impressions was of a nice looking pub in a quiet area. Staff were welcoming & we were shown to our room straight away. We booked the small double (Room 1) as it was the only one available, a previous review said there was no room to even lay a suitcase out, this... More

A very well-presented room, freshly decorated, with very comfortable beds. In a quiet residential area, close to the park, a few minutes walk into the city centre. The food was very good and reasonably priced, with friendly service from all the staff we met. A parking permit was provided, so we were able to leave the car and explore on... More

We stayed two nights in this pub. It is very welcoming and all the staff we met were friendly and helpful. We were out both nights and sadly didn't eat there as the food looked good. It is a slightly longer walk back than I wanted from the town centre but not far enough to put me off staying there... More

Stayed last night and was amazed by the value which the King Alfred represents. The room was better than similar rooms in much more expensive alternatives. I usually stay in the Hotel Du Vin, but this is my new favourite in Winchester, less than half the price and just as good. I didn't use the pub, but it was busy... More

I just stayed for two nights at the King Alfred Pub. This was my first trip to England, and what a great introduction! The room was clean, quiet, and cozy, the bed was comfortable, and the en suite bathroom had sleek modern fittings. Despite being told the WiFi could be temperamental, I had no problems with it. I enjoyed my... More
