Properly living on its historic values but making no attempt to grow value. Rooms pretty basic. Shower in small bath. Bed not all that comfortable, and starchy sheets that scratch the skin. Staff just pleasant, but not enthusiastic. Valet parking is problematic when they don’t reserve a spot for guests to pull up out side the hotel (places consumed by taxis and cars belonging to weddings). Not happy, wouldn’t stay here again.

The Windsor Hotel is steeped in history of a by gone era and I love it for that. I love it's location within easy walking distance of some of Melbourne's great established restaurants Florentino, Longrain and Bamboo House. Breakfast in the dining room is a delight and the service is excellent The room sizes vary throughout the property but are clean and comfortable and it is my home away from home.

This Hotel was amazing 50 years ago, but now its old and crumbling and falling apart. Its lost its charm of years gone by, with old furniture, crumbling walls, and an average breakfast. This did not make up for a large room.

The hotel is in a need for renovation. The bathrooms are way too old. We visited the hotel also about 7 years ago and it’s aging quickly. It’s conveniently located within a walking distance to the grounds of Australian Open tennis tournament (the reason for our staying there), but for the next visit to Melbourne we will select a different hotel.

A beautiful old property that is being allowed to fall apart. Furniture and rugs are stained and worn. The vanity light in our bathroom didn’t work, we reported this at the front desk. No reaction. The hotel advertised dinner specials in one of their restaurants, the waiter knew nothing about it. Great location, just don’t promote this as the grand hotel it used to be.
