While the hotel has a great central location close to CBD, local trams and underground, it is desperately in need of major freshening/updating. When we arrived, all lifts, including the service lift, were out of order. Old carpets and plaster peeling on upper hallways. No handicap/suitcase ramp at front entrance. Restaurant menu from the 1960’s. Must have been beautiful and grand in its heyday, but definitely getting by on faded glory now.

Liked: Cleanliness
Have stayed at The Hotel Windsor for over forty years - this visit was probably my last. Condition of room (214) was OK - paint peeling in some areas and the safety chain on the door wasn't functioning as the fitting on the door frame was absent. It took two attempts to get the safety chain fixed (my first request wasn't referrred to Building Maintenance), then around 4pm on Thursday 15 January when I was topless in my room my privacy was disturbed when a male member of staff barrelled into my room - DESPITE THE "DO NOT DISTURB" SIGN BEING ON. He entered with such force that the newly fixed safety chain was once again torn from its mounting on the doorframe. The matter was immediately reported to the duty manager who investigated the matter (apparently the staff member was "new", "in a hurry" and "had meant to access Room 216" and offered me three complimentary breakfasts for having my nerves shredded by the unnecessary intrusion. I have another stay booked at The Hotel Windsor for June this year (the visit was booked months ago), but I am now actively looking for alternate accommodation as, quite frankly, I no longer consider the hotel to be a safe venue.
