The Winchester Hotel & Spa
Clean rooms, very central for the town. Would recommend to anyone looking for a lovely place to stay in Winchester. Breakfast was good and enjoyed the pool. Although please note children only allowed for 1 hour in the morning which was a bit of a disappointment.

Moxy Southampton
Good hotel which has very helpful staff and is very clean. It has a ‘young and vibrant’ feel. Rooms are good but basic (eg just a rail for your clothes). All every clean. Breakfast is good but the ‘cooked part’ is limited.
