Top South Downs Way Hotel Reviews

The Winchester Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Spotlessly clean and well-maintained hotel, rooms spruced up every day and lovely, helpful friendly staff. The hotel did have a water problem one day meaning I couldn’t have a wash on my last morning and I’m never a fan of “double beds” that are two singles joined; it’s not a double and it’s not comfortable…other than that a very nice stay."

Winchester Royal Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Comfortable room and helpful staff"

Wykeham Arms

10/10 Excellent

"Wykeham Arms is a period institution! Accomodation is a plus, and great food... Location, location, location helps!"

The Black Hole

10/10 Excellent

"This was a fun and unique place. The bed was super comfy, the breakfasts were made to order, hot, and tasty. This Inn is nearby to everything, and it is quiet considering it is on a busy thoroughfare. This is the place to stay if you're starting east on the South Downs Way. Also! Don't miss their Pub next door!!!"
