Have stayed a few times now at the Windsor. Whilst it's a little 'tired' in some areas, we love old world atmosphere an charm it has (as well as a seriously impressive list of past guests!). Staff are always efficient and courteous. Our rooms have been great (particularly the upgrade we scored this time around). Great location opposite Parliament House. Very close to the theatres, multiple dining options and free CBD tram access. Will definitely be back.
