It's a fine hotel, with a character and a history than any updating would only tarnish. The Cricketers' Bar would be one of the best places in the world to have a drink if its stereo broke.

Disliked: Amenities
The Victorian Sweet room 306 was $640 per night and sadly was not as the advertised photographs. The carpet had more than a dozen fifty cent piece sized brown filthy marks. The beautiful large drawer desk in the add were missing, instead, a flat piece of timer with four wooden legs. The three couches were not matching as per the add. The stereo cabinet was broken with timber missing smashed out of it. Many of the room doors had their inner latches removed and unable to close doors. Many of the walls were marked. Tiles around the fire place were broken. The hotel is vintage and parts of it were beautiful but when the lovely brass light switch brackets were swapped out for white light switches it was dissatisfying. Be careful of the door of the single bed in room three had a sharp screw hanging out of it that I brushed then caught my leg on, ouch! There was a lot of other damages and it was sad to see it neglected with cost cutting repairs. I cannot recommend room 306 and am happy to upload photos onto support my review

The Hotel continues to shine with old world charm with spacious, comfortable rooms. It does lack dining options, with the food at The Cricketers Bar being very ordinary. I ordered a medium steak that came well done. It is also unacceptable to have no WIFI in 2024, especially when it is offered as being complimentary.

Property requires significant renovation, one of two lifts not working, plumbing issues, TV old and unable to connect to streaming even though it's offered, very outdated rooms - and not in a period way but in an early 90s fashion. Staff were generally lovely, even when moving us to another room at 9.30pm due to plumbing issues, food was acceptable but not a highlight and unfortunately the high tea, which the Windsor is known for, was very disappointing. The burger we ordered from room service was absolutely delicious.
