Review summary

Based on recent reviews

The Windsor Hotel offers excellent value, especially considering its convenient location near the beach, town centre, and metro. Many found their rooms clean and surprisingly spacious, sometimes featuring large bathrooms with both a bath and shower. The hotel provides parking, although spaces might be limited when fully booked; also, the nightclub across the street has been noted by some guests as a potential source of noise on weekends. Overall, the location close to the seafront makes it a good choice.

good size separate shower easy control

The room was a good size (I got a Double Room). The en-suite had a large bath and a separate shower. The radiator controls were easy to use, so the room was warm.

The entrance looked a little run down.

Adequate stay with minor issues

good size sea view bath option broken lift run down area messy garden

The room was a good size. I appreciated that the room had both a bath and a shower. I was happy with the sea view from my room (it was very nice).

The lift was out of order (this was inconvenient). I also noticed the area around the hotel looked a bit run down. The garden area outside my window was quite messy and needed some work.
