We purchased a secret deal on Last minute.com and it turned out to be the Windsor? "Excellent purchase, your going to love it" said all of our Melbourne friends and family! So off we go full of hope and expectation! The first thing you notice on arrival is how majestic the facade is, its old world beauty at its best.... More

We were originally given a superior room near the staircase, but there was an awful smell coming from the toilet. Matter requesting someone to look at it, they simply changed us to a nicer room overlooking the street. This was right next to the Melba suite and we were allowed to have a peek inside at one stage. Excellent service,... More

If you like old (as in 1800's) grand hotels you'll love this place.....we did. The halls, the entry, the creaky floorboards, the restaurant and the rooms all ooze old world charm. We'd stay there all the time but when they get booked up the prices go up too. They have an incredible dining room, good (but not great) food for... More

This is my favourite hotel in Melbourne - stayed for 1 night only and it was lovely - great staff, gorgeous old worle room and lovely pillow menu. My only complaint would be the breakfast. I had no idea you had to order from a menu, as I wasn't given one as I was seated. All the cold things were... More

We only stayed one night. The most splendid experience. Kind and cheerful and helpful staff. Excellent dinner. Damien looked after us in the restaurant in the most pleasant manner. 10/10. Will be back and stay a few days next time. More

We were a bit spoiled on the value equation with a 'surprise wotif' deal @ $149. At the price - amazing value. It's an old style hotel with the usual facilities/function compromise but high celing rooms with comfy bed and all mod cons are lovely. Staff are obseqiously nice. Loved all the Chesterfields in the foyer. More

We stayed here to celebrate an anniversary as we had done a couple of years ago. We were greeted warmly by the bellman and did not have to wait long for check in. I had bought and paid for the room through wotif.com and it included bed and breakfast. Our room was a traditional room which was smaller than last... More

Full of old world charm, elegance and character this is a must stay in Melbourne for those who want a real experience. It won't disappoint!! The service, decor, ambience is all old world and we loved it. If you want accomodation with all the mod cons, this is not for you. The air conditioning in the room was a little... More

I'd always wanted to stay at the Windsor, and as I had to spend a night in Melbourne a couple of weeks ago, decided it was time. The location is fantastic, as others have said. Very convenient to pretty much everything Melbourne has to offer. First impressions were very good - I was warmly greeted on arrival, and was on... More

In regards to the lack of response, our manager had tried on several occasions to contact you via phone and the email address we had for you had bounced back.

The Hotel Windsor really is a grand Hotel - the service is impeccable and furnishings etc in keeping with the elegance and era of when the Hotel was built. Its nice to know that a piece of Australian heritage is still here for future generations to enjoy. We last stayed here for our honeymoon in 1983 and it was great... More
