Welcome to Winchester. An ancient city steeped in history. And at its heart, within earshot of the peels of the city's landmark cathedral is the stunning Winchester hotel, the original Hotel du Vin - in all its Queen Anne-style architectural glory.

Built in 1715, they've lovingly reinvented their Winchester hotel as a grand but informal place to work, rest and play. A stone's throw away, you have wonderful architecture, historic museums, cobbled streets lined with independent shops and boutiques, theatres, literary events and arts festivals. All on the doorstep of the stunning landscape of the South Downs.

Hotel du Vin Winchester features 24 individually styled rooms and suites to retire to. Big custom-made beds, handsprung mattresses with Egyptian cotton bed linen, huge fluffy bath towels, drenching monsoon showers and roll top baths. Take morning coffee or afternoon tea in our Bar 20, dine al fresco in the charming 18th century walled garden or enjoy hearty, classic dishes and local flavours in the cool ambience of their trademark bistro, all within the walls of our hotel in Winchester. Taste the finest fizz or discover a wealth of wines with expert guidance from our Sommelier. Find a cosy nook to relax in the low-lit bar. Choose a cigar from the humidor and retire to the Cigar shack. Take advantage of the unique charms of the Abbey Well room for an inspiring meeting, celebration or memorable wedding. It's a fairy tale ending to a fairy tale day.
