Reviews for Hotel Windsor Melbourne

I stayed, with my husband, at this beautiful, iconic hotel, and it was everything I hoped for and more. I should not have been worried about the bad reviews I read. From the moment we walked in, we felt we were in another time, with the gorgeous old furniture creating such unique and charming atmosphere. We would not have been surprised if people were walking by with beautiful dresses and suits from the era of the Hotel. The staircase is amazing and we enjoyed walking each level to look at the different paintings on the walls. And the old elevator we discovered while walking in the floor hall is something to be seen. The grandeur of this hotel is undeniable, and although it definitely need renovations as some reviews points out, you wouldn’t want to lose the essence that makes it so special. After all, we didn’t come here to experience a sleek, modern hotel; we came to experience the history and character of the Windsor Hotel and this is exactly what the hotel offered us during our stay. The deluxe king size bedroom was extremely spacious, there was a bathtub in the bathroom which was so appreciated and the walking robe is big. Yes as some reviews points out, it was two beds put together, as for us this is what our grandparents had back then (in Europe) the beds did not feel out of place in the room, to the contrary. The dresser was an old beautiful dresser. Not so fond of old carpet for a hotel room but it was going with the style and again made the room a feel of being in a special place. We did ask for slippers as none were in the room, they were brought in an instant. The bathrobes were super comfy. The à la carte breakfast we thought complimented the high quality of the hotel. A buffet would simply not have been at his place in an old iconic hotel like the Windsor (although I prefer a buffet usually). It would have been nice to get more than one coffee but we cannot fault the menu offered. The orange juice, cappuccino and hot chocolate were excellent. Egg Benedict were done to the perfection and the toasted waffle was so good. Portion were for us big which was great to start our long days visiting Melbourne. The French server at breakfast (sorry we forgot to ask his name) was absolutely wonderful. He’s truly a gem for the hotel. The room was nicely cleaned each time we came back in the afternoon in our room. From the reception to the servers at breakfast, the cleaners or the concierge nothing has been at fault during our time at the Windsor Hotel. We had a wonderful time at the Hotel Windsor and we look forward to returning. If you're looking for a place that combines history, charm, and character, this iconic hotel is the perfect choice. Thank you so much to the staff for making our stay special!

Upon arrival at 11am on day of check in we were made to feel unwelcome and an inconvenience to the front desk and concierge for trying to leave luggage. Gentleman on concierge said “it’s a bit early” when we asked to leave our bags at 11am. It felt like our age and dress suggested we were not welcome to such a “prestigious” venue. When we later arrived to check in the receptionist was very welcoming and very helpful. Upon entering the room we were very disappointed with the overall quality of the decor of the bedroom and bathroom. There was a gap in the entrance door allowing lots of noise through, the bathroom was verging on unacceptable for a budget hotel let alone a luxury stay. The bathroom taps leaked throughout the duration and mastering the shower mixer between scalding and icy cold required the hands of a surgeon. The bed was very comfortable and did help for a good sleep, however we were awoken throughout the night due to people walking the corridor. After checking out we again needed to leave our bags with concierge for the day which felt like a burden for the team after we waited for 5 minutes for someone to help. Overall this was a very disappointing stay for the price charged and the expectation of a luxury hotel. The location and the exterior of the hotel are fantastic but the staff and interior massively let it down. What may have been a luxury stay in the 90s is crying out for a modern overhaul and a smile.

We have always loved The Hotel Windsor. It has soul or atmosphere or an old world elegance about it that has always appealed to us. We were warmly welcomed by the front desk staff. As we were staying for 5 days we lashed out on one of their Windsor Suites which did not disappoint. It was the perfect home away from home and a good starting point from which we were able to walk to the various shows we attended and view some of Melbourne. Breakfast in the dining room was a great way to start the day. Room service for a couple of the evenings was prompt and perfect, delivered by personable and amiable staff. The High Tea on Sunday was very enjoyable and since we attended the 2.30pm sitting ensured that there was no need for another meal that evening as there was such a variety of sweets and savouries to partake. Just walking down the elegant centre staircase each day or strolling through the hallways were experiences to be enjoyed. What can I say...we love The Hotel Windsor.

The best location,with really nice rooms, crispy wonderful bed linens, overall an excellent stay in an old fashioned hotel, but we totally recommend it!!! we would stay again. The only fault was the internet , very weak, almost didn’t work in our room. please fix it!! very polite front desk and concierge!

It didn't feel like a 5-star hotel. Yesterday, the weather was 40 degrees, so I wanted to check in a bit earlier, but the woman at the reception desk inside without any explanation spoke in a rather unfriendly tone and told me to leave my luggage and come back at 3 PM. It also took a long time to check in because they struggled to find my name saying there were many people with the same last name. The room itself was so poorly maintained that I couldn't tell if it was a hotel or not. Even though it's a heritage building the interior and service made it hard to believe it was a 5-star hotel. However, I appreciated the porter and reception staff who worked diligently during the early morning hours which allowed me to leave on a more positive note this morning.
