Hotel & Brasserie
The White Horse is a very smart hotel in the middle of Romsey. The hotel has over 500 years of history; perhaps the most interesting remnants are some Tudor wall paintings of motifs and roses. A courtyard on the left leads to the entrance, and the bar is to the left of reception; being open all day to non-residents. Breakfast hours are 7am-10am Mon-Fri and 7.30am-10.30am Sat & Sun. As well as breakfast, lunch and dinner served in the brasserie, the bar serves a snack menu all day, including a wide range of teas. A formidable array of whiskies is also available.
The hotel was transferred to the National Crimes Agency to settle a civil court claim May 2019. It continued running until the end of September and fully reopened after a short closure but under a new management company.
