This hotel was fantastic. Beautiful hotel, with spacious rooms. It's almost directly across from the entrance to Windsor Castle, so it's perfect for visiting that and the town. No meals were included with our stay, so we had Eggs Benedict for breakfast at the restaurant next door, which was fantastic. My only complaint is their lack of parking! If you have a car then make sure you reserve a parking spot for the night! We were unaware of this upon arrival and ended up having to park in a pay lot down the street. It wasn't the end of the world obviously, just a bit inconvenient. But otherwise va lovely hotel

Fantastic location, quiet and good service

Fantastic location for castle and train station and very quiet hotel. Nearby taxi rank if need, although we used Uber. We didn’t eat in hotel at all as we were out a lot, and used pubs, cafes and local restaurant ( although all overpriced due to tourist location). Service as hotel was really good and the fact as train travellers they could look after our luggage before check in and after check out made a massive difference to us. standard Room spacious , quiet, well equipped, comfortable, a little dark and dated but fine for us.( Note light sensor in corridors and bathroom can be pretty slow to react). No phone in room a little inconvenient but okay. I only gripe was the mobile phone signal/ internet was awful in our room, poor near hotel entrance and generally around Windsor so hard for us to plan , especially our travel.

Don't buy the breakfast

Hotel was good rooms spacious clean only downside was the Bath as if you were elderly as it was very high to get in for a shower, fridge light was on but not working as milk went off. Breakfast was very poor bacon was well overcooked sausage was ok hash brown were horrible the toast option was cheap processed bread as the fresh bread wasn't refreshed.
