Stayed at the Wykeham when in town for my sisters wedding. It is her favorite haunt & she knows the landlord well, which might explain the wonderful room i had above the pub. Food is just fantastic as is the atmosphere in the pub. It is as all English pubs should be like, but few nowadays are. Ideal for foreign visitors who hanker after that authentic experience. Staff were helpful beyond belief. Thank you.

This is the second time we have stayed at the Wykeham Arms and the food was just as good the second time around. However our only complaint related to our room "Redman". Only book this room if you are extremely short as the ensuite facilities are very cramped. It is impossible to stand up in the bath and try to use the shower attachment - so if you prefer a shower - choose another room!

Winchester was our favorite destination during our recent honeymoon, and we couldn't have found better accomodations and food than the Wykeham Arms. Located just around the corner from the historic and stunning Winchester Cathedral, and within walking distance of shops and pubs, more than any other place, Winchester and the Wykeham Arms made us feel like we were in England.

Our room was in the main building, and despite being above a busy pub, things were quiet enough for a good night sleep. The room contained a large ensuite bathroom, and a TV (which we never turned on.) We ate both dinner and breakfast at the Wykeham Arms, and both were excellent (we're now addicted to sticky toffee pudding). The owner, staff, and pub patrons were all very helpful, and the atmosphere was friendly.

The only regret we have about our visit to Winchester was that we didn't budget enough time to truly exprience this great city. When we go back, we'll be staying at Wykeham Arms.

We had a lovely dinner here (Feb 05), in this wonderfully decorated and charming old pub. Very friendly staff, good food and good prices (mains £11-14). Would definitely recommend it for tourists (although it was full of locals) given its traditional olde-England pub style - many of the tables are old school desks, it has hundreds of pictures and momentos on the walls, open fires etc. You really need to book though to get a table. The perfect place for dinner or a drink (extensive wine list as well as beers) in winter.
