February 2025I had an amazing experience at the bar in Mercury Hotel thanks to Artur! From the moment I arrived, he was incredibly welcoming, professional, and attentive. His cocktail-making skills are top-notch, and he recommended the perfect drink based on my preferences. Beyond that, his friendly personality and attention to detail made the evening even more enjoyable. It’s clear that he takes pride in his work and goes above and beyond to ensure guests have a great experience. I’ll definitely be back and highly recommend stopping by to see Artur if you’re in town! Would you like any specific details added?

February 2025Had a wonderful couple of days. Everyone was so polite from reception, bar, breakfast and housekeeping staff. Would highly recommend and will definitely go back. Delicious food from a small menu for dinner. Breakfast very relaxed with plenty of choice. This is a photo I took from the dinner table I was sat at.

December 2024Outside looks a bit bleak but inside it is nice, clean and cozy. Room was very clean and a decent size too (had a room overlooking the Cathedral). Bed a bit soft for my taste and the room heater (was winter) was very small for the room so takes a while to heat up, but otherwise no complaints. Bar is a nice area and both dinner and breakfast were good in the restaurant. Location is fantastic and the staff were friendly and efficient.

February 2025A very central location for this character hotel. Whilst the room was spacious, albeit a bit tired looking it was fully of character and a view towards the cathedral. We were greeted by a very smiley, friendly Magdalena who informed us that our room was ready early, however as we were heading into the town there was no rush. She shared her local knowledge and provided us with a map. A great personal approach as we arrived and then as we left.

March 2025The hotel staff were lovely and the reception area feels welcoming. The hotel rooms are a completely different story. None of our lamps nor our fridge worked so we had to go back down to the lobby. There was also a huge stain on the carpet near the bin (which looked like blood), the rooms didn’t feel welcoming and were very dated and unclean. We were only staying for two nights and spent most of our time exploring Winchester, had we been there longer I would have asked for my money back and gone to the travel lodge over the road. This is DEFINITELY NOT a 4* hotel and certainly not worth the current price.
