creaking floor boards, furnishings from the 60's (like the noisy in-room heater), and an ancient mattress...i suppos all of this could be spun as old-world charm. and to be honest, if you like that sort of thing, the lobby and dining areas do have a degree of charm from a faded past. but this hotel is insufficient in basic comfort.... more

I stayed at the Windsor recently and was so overwhelmed by the experience that I felt it necessary to actually send their general manager a thank you letter, something I have never done. It was my first time at this hotel, and the personally written welcome note made me feel right at home, as I sunk into a bed that... more

I Usually try to stay in smaller hotels when I travel so I thought I would try the Windsor hotel. What a bad experience it was. First, the service was really poor. The prices aare rediculous and the hotel is a 3 star at best. The room is small with an uncomfortable bed. I called the manager to suggest that... more

My partner and I decided to do something romantic and see Melbourne from the balcony of a Hotel Windsor suite. It had been a pretty good experience until, for some reason, the bathtub started to fill with dirty, filthy, rubishy water. It filled to about halfway until it started to subside. We called the concierge and they sent someone right... more

We arrived into Melb on a cold & windy night. As the taxi pulled up to the kerb the doorman opened the door, shielding us with an umbrella and thankfully keeping us dry. The receptionist was polite and cheerful, with another gentleman escorting us to our room. Such service!!! Our room, though not large, was of an adequate size with... more

At first glance I didn't think The Hotel Windsor was my style at all but after a few nights, having been greeted by the delightful (and very tall) concierge and sleeping in an extremely comfortable bed it grew on me. It's situated in the best part of town, just around the corner from Flinders Lane which I adore, Chinatown and... more

This hotel might have history, but the rooms are simply old. The wallpaper is starting to peel and wall trimmings are beginning to crack. You can see how it might have been elegant at it's peak -- but the hotel is past its prime. The walls are also thin and you can hear what's going on in your neighbor's rooms... more

In response to adam695 the same thing happened to me. I was told by the lady at the reception that due to not having a credit card i would be required to pay a $200 deposit. On my exit i handed back the room key and only received $100 in return. After about five minutes of arguments i gave up... more

the hotel windsors quality can not be denied, its rooms, service, facilities and atmosphere are all 5 star, but make sure you count your money two or three times before handing it over to them, and be certain to obtain a reciet immediately on payment. after my financial robbery at the windsor, i felt it would be the wrong thing... more

Booked a rediculously cheap special here (AU$50 per night) in a traditional room so I seriously cannot complain. I'm glad I've stayed here now (I'm from melbourne) so it's nice to see what people are talking about. It is a lovely hotel - I loved the foyer and the lobby areas of the hotel. I'm sure the superior and deluxe... more
