Top Melbourne Writers Festival Hotel Reviews

The Hotel Windsor

The Hotel Windsor

8/10 Good
"This grand old hotel is a hotel you must stay in if you can . There’s nothing «  modern «about it as   it was built in 1883. . We had a superior room . No view but we were hardly in it for the view . Good amenities were supplied . The bathroom is renovated but the shower was over the bathtub. This would pose a problem for anyone with a mobility issue . I’m sure you could ask for an accessible room. We had breakfast in the dining room which is not buffet . Order off the menu . It did not disappoint . The Cricketers Bar next door is a lively venue . I would definitely stay there again."
