Mercure Wessex is an older boutique style hotel offering amenities such as restaurant and bar among others. While it is an older hotel/building the location of the Mercure is excellent! Right on the corner of Hight St with all of the great shopping and food options and steps away from the Winchester Bus station the hotel has an. incredibly convenient location

Pleasant stay but needs investment
The hotel is well situated just off the high street, we managed to park on site, which was a bonus. The hotel was clean but fixtures and furnishings was very out dated and worn. The reception staff were nice and pleasant but we didn’t eat or drink in restaurant so cannot comment on that. The room was very spacious with lovely view of the cathedral but as mentioned before room needs a make over!

Good room and bed. Choice of menu in the evening very limited. Mostly burger type food so didn’t use the dining room. Realise that it is off season and the hotel very quiet so, unfortunately, no atmosphere in the bar which we also didn’t use.

Staff were welcoming, friendly and very attentive. The room was clean and comfortable. The breakfast was very good; I enjoyed my porridge which was made as soon as requested. The bar area had very pleasant staff and a very relaxing atmosphere. This is one of the best hotels I have stayed at.

Gorgeous front of house Magdelaina was perfect. What a skill she had of interacting with customers on a real personal level. Knowing how to converse with different clientele at different occasions is a unique personality trait which so many do not have. First class. Thank you.

Really dated hotel.
The hotel overall is really dated. The TV in my first room didn't work and so I had to walk all the back to reception just to move 2 doors away. In the new room the hot water tap in the bathroom wasn't fixed to anything so when you tried to turn it on, it just twisted and twisted. The room was very hot with no air con, and so I had to get a fan to try and cool things down. There was a shower over a bath, which makes no sense unless your one of the weird ones who like taking baths in hotels. Think I'd rather stay in the travelodge next door.

Nice hotel... lovely city.. The only complaint I could have was that the television in my room wasn't up to scratch... neither was the remote control!!

Location is very central, hotel lobby is fine, room was nice and tidy but a little tired, bathroom needs updating however it did have a de-misting mirror. No air-con but it did have a good fan and the windows can be opened as well which I prefer anyway. Door lock for our room happened to be dodgy and needed fixing (didn’t unlock and yes it was our room), the night time staff (a lovely gentleman at the reception) was super helpful. The view outside the window was on the street side this time and some building work was happening opposite the hotel. The bed was comfortable so we had a good night sleep despite someone singing their heart out and some loud bin noises happened briefly which both are uncontrollable circumstances by the hotel. Overall I would stay there again if I found a cheaper rate for street side room or if it was facing the cathedral side.
