We have visited this property a couple of times before booking a long weekend stay. I can not speak highly enough of the staff and the food! The room was clean and comfortable, the tiniest issue I had (it’s really small!) is that the bathroom door could not be closed and the fridge in the room would cone on periodically (which for a light sleeper can be a bit of an issue). However, these are really small things. The bed is comfortable and the room itself is just wonderfully cozy! Breakfast was part of the booking- and it’s worth it! The buffet selection is already pretty good, but the hot breakfast from the kitchen is amazing! (The food in general is worth the short walk out from the city centre). The staff was friendly and welcoming from the moment of checking in until we checked out. Just a wonderful stay! Thank you to everyone who works there!

Myself and my husband stayed for one night for our anniversary. It’s a very quirky property, with a lively atmosphere, but cosy. Lots of interesting things to look at. Staff were great throughout and the room on arrival looked good. However as soon as I used the toilet roll the holder fell off, and the lack of hot water was a problem the following morning. This was disappointing as we had a roll top bath that I ran and water was tepid, too cold to get in. Followed by an attempt to have a shower that was the same temperature and I will say it was brief. My husband declined after, because the water was so cold. We mentioned this to a staff member after breakfast and apologised stating it was an old building. But no mention of any kind of refund. Which is disappointing as we paid about £140 for one nights stay, that was with a discount from my blue light. Our evening meal was good but at £45 we have the fillet steak a miss. I’m happy to pay more for a steak but that just seemed a little too much. We have an enjoyable stay but unlikely to return as not being able to wash properly is pleasant. And the fact that we were told that it’s an old building makes me question if this is an ongoing issue.

Old fashioned hotel.Modern vibe.Pleasing meli-melo

Hisoric building crammed with antiques and curios assembled by a previous owner over many years. Creaking staircases and corridors set one in mind of the 1950's. But the bedrooms are clean, modern and well-designed, the staff are super friendly, the pub is a lot of fun to be in, and the breakfast is very good. Plus the cathedral and school are on the doorstep...and free car parking is a boom.

Cheeky night away

We arrived 2 hours before check in, the staff couldn’t be more helpful getting our room ready while we enjoyed a drink in the fabulous bar. Our room was cathedral view, my wife particularly enjoyed the bath in our bedroom.

Perfect in so many ways.

During my stay at the Wykeham Arms, I stayed in two different rooms since I decided to extend my visit by an extra night. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. The La Boîte room is perfect for a solo traveller, while on my third night, I stayed in the Cannon double room, which was also perfect for travellers. Both rooms were exceptionally clean, modern, and comfortable. Whether it's for food, drinks, an overnight stay, or all of the above, the Wykeham would be my first choice. Thanks so much. Ciarán

A charming, delightful pub with rooms above and across the narrow street. Staff are helpful with anything. Including getting our suitcases up the VERY narrow, winding staircase. Not great for my husband with mobiity challenges but he was fine after the first day.
