Lovely hotel, perfect location, excellent staff service. Only negative was when we got to our room we were allocated one that could be used as a connecting room for families, only a thin door separating the rooms and you could hear everything the people in the other room were saying,

Just ok

The deluxe room we had felt a little tired. Pillows were awful and bed was hard. Easy to scald yourself in the shower as there are no clear indications as to hot or cold options or temperature levels. Little dissapointed as our stay was for a special reason.

The central location suited our needs and was within easy walking distance from Windsor Castle. The staff were friendly, welcoming and very helpful. Safe, but expensive on site parking. The restaurant was mediocre, small portion and very expensive fish of the day.

Not as good as last visit

Not our first visit to this hotel. It is in a great location and overall a great hotel. On this visit we noticed a general deterioration in the property. Worn metal on taps in bathroom, marks on carpets. Not major. Breakfast was a big disappointment though. Limited choice. Not cooked to a good standard. Processed bread. Nothing that said fresh and healthy
