“This hotel stands out for its prime location near Windsor Castle, along with service, especially in the restaurant; some rooms, though, can be affected by noise. Its afternoon tea and dining options are definite highlights; still, carefully consider the room choice to match expectations. I think this is a solid choice for those prioritizing location and service.”
