“In Windsor, the hotel makes a strategic base, especially for those keen on peeking at the castle right from their rooms. I noticed this property balances its historic charm with modern upgrades, a blend that appeals without pretense. While dog-friendly perks stand out, I think its dining-particularly the Indian cuisine-is a genuine draw.”

poor service terrible pressure
The room was dark and not as nice as I expected for the price. The shower had terrible water pressure, and the bed felt small. On check out I paid for the car park and there wasn't a single word from the staff about how our stay was. It was really disappointing.

great location good range double bed no refund
The hotel's location is great. It is on the main street, opposite the castle. the breakfast had a really good range of food and choices. i found the bedroom comfy and super clean.
i booked a twin room, but i was offered an upgraded room for an extra fee. i discovered it had a double bed split into two singles and a camp bed. there was no refund offered for the upgrade.
