Reviews and Ratings
I had a lovely stay at the hotel in Windsor. The rooms were a mix of small and dark spaces overlooking a brick wall and an office building to larger, nicer rooms. The service was welcoming and friendly, although a hiccup with the key card affected our heating. The location was excellent with stunning river views and easy access to local attractions. The dining experience had its ups and downs, and overall it was a pleasant stay to remember.
My stay at the hotel had its highs and lows. The location was excellent, right by the river and close to Windsor's attractions and amenities. However, the room I got was quite noisy due to its position near a busy walkway. The service was very helpful, but there were some issues with computer efficiency. The dining experience was okay, but the hotel bar closing early was disappointing.
The hotel is in a convenient location within Windsor, offering a traditional and welcoming atmosphere. The rooms are spacious and clean, but can be quite noisy. The service is efficient and friendly, although there are slight lapses in attentiveness. Dining options vary from disappointing to satisfying. The location is a standout feature, allowing easy access to Windsor's attractions. Overall, a charming stay with some room for improvement.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were lovely, comfortable, and clean, with an Executive King bed that was just perfect. The location was ideal, right in the heart of everything and overlooking the river. The service from the chambermaid to the receptionist and the wait staff was fantastic, attentive, and accommodating. However, there were some issues with the shower pressure, hot water, and noise pollution. Overall, a great stay with minor inconveniences.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms, although comfortable, had a slanted floor causing things to slide off the tables. On the positive side, they were well insulated from noise. The service was excellent overall, especially with a room change to one with a hot tub, thanks to the exceptionally friendly staff. The location couldn't be better, right by the river and central to town, but the high price was a disappointment. The dining was good, though limited, with a slight hiccup in seating. Despite some drawbacks, it was a pleasant stay overall.
The hotel offers a warm and cozy atmosphere, perfect for enjoying a cup of tea or a drink with lovely extras in the rooms. However, the lack of air conditioning may be uncomfortable on hotter days.
My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant. The rooms were modern and clean, though a bit small given the number of guests. The service was brilliant and professional, making me feel welcomed and well taken care of. The location was great, just a short walk to all the main attractions. The dining options were satisfying, with a good selection of food but could get crowded. The facilities were well-kept and convenient for guests.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. While the rooms were quite a distance from the main staircase and showed signs of wear, being an executive club room, they had a broken heater which was a downside. The service, despite the staff being helpful when carrying my luggage, was inadequate with issues like a powerless shower and noise pollution. The location, although near the town center and offering spacious rooms, faced noise from the busy bridge. Dining was average compared to other places, with the hotel's location being the key standout feature.
The hotel's location couldn't be better, with easy access to Windsor Castle and the riverside, though dropping bags off on the pedestrian street can be a challenge. The rooms, though smaller than expected, were clean and cozy, and the service was top-notch despite being located across the road in a separate building. The dining experience by the Thames was a mix of pleasant ambiance and lukewarm food. The hotel offers a great setting by the river, next to the castle, and close to the train station, but the hard-to-reach drop-off point might be a drawback.
