The building features high ceilings, polished wood, and large windows displaying early 20th-century architecture, while rooms include modern conveniences such as refrigerators, microwaves, and televisions.
The building was constructed in 1924 to serve train travelers and later operated under various management including as a Howard Johnson's. After closing in the late 1970s, it was renovated and reopened in 2008 as part of the Wyndham group while preserving its original architectural character.

The hotel sits in downtown Winchester, just a short walk from shops, cafes, and restaurants, making it easy to explore on foot. Rooms are spacious and well-appointed with functional bathrooms and comfortable bedding that supports good sleep.
The hotel was originally conceived as a railroad station lodging to serve travelers arriving by train in Winchester. This distinctive purpose reflects a historical moment when rail transport shaped how people traveled and towns developed.
