Elegant old hotel is seeing its age. Could use some brightening up. The original elegance can still be felt. Staf was nice, but could use a bit more training. They look good good if their knowledge and attention to detail was better the hotel would feel better.

I have stayed at the Windsor several times and like it a lot. I was annoyed by the fact that it took me about 10 minutes to get seated for breakfast on Sunday.

Beautiful character building, aging from the 1980s style refurbishment. Not enough staff to run efficiently. Concierge desk often unmanned (required for valet parking) and the amazing high tea is enough of a business income to preclude the requirement to run an evening dinner service in the restaurant. Limited room service menu has to suffice.

Best of old and new Melbourne

The Hotel Windsor represents the stately luxury of old Melbourne, but it’s at the center of modern Melbourne still. We rented a suite, and it was the most luxurious hotel we’ve ever stayed in. Breakfast was fabulous – custom cooked from a menu of great options. The staff were excellent. As we were waiting for our taxi, the porter noticed we were a bit hot and brought us each a bottle of water.
