Hotel was undergoing renovations when we stayed, but that didn't impact is at all. Great location, rooms are clean and large, staff was really helpful. Not handicap accessible, as there were several small flights of stairs, which is common in Europe.

I booked this hotel for a birthday stay in Windsor and it was perfect. The location of the hotel means everything you’ll want to see is within easy walking distance. The hotel was easy to reach via car and had plenty of parking spaces; parking is charged. The staff at the hotel were also lovely. Overall if you’re considering booking this hotel for a stay in Windsor I’d give it a 5 out of 5.

Even though there is significant building work being conducted this did not detract from our stay. We were attending the Royal Marines presentation of new colours at the castle and so the location was brilliant for us. The staff were helpful and the day we took breakfast in our room it was excellent.

The staff was overly helpful and friendly. We felt very welcomed. Very nice amenities in the room: selection of drinks, soaps and lotion, cookies. Great location across from the castle. Remodeling was taking place during our visit. It was not disruptive, just needed to use alternative entry to the hotel.
