“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 serviceterrible 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.

The hotel location allowed immediate access to shops. the staff ensured my luggage was taken care of. the bartender created a bespoke drink. I really appreciated this. the room proved quiet. I wasn't disturbed .
i find the cost for parking as a hotel guest a lot. this detracted from my experience somewhat. perhaps a reduced rate could be considered.
