I had my hens' party at The Windsor Hotel - we had their high tea on a Sunday afternoon and it was just perfect! Well organised, plenty of food, free glass of champagne to start; they made us feel very special. The food was absolutely delicious too!

We had our wedding in the grand ballroom (organized very last minute) and it was just amazing! Very lucky that it was available as it was thee best wedding venue we could ever ask for. Lovely and friendly service and tasty food. I really appreciate their assistance with preparing everything. It was very stress-free as they greatly took care of everything!

The Hotel Windsor is a brilliant venue for weddings of all sizes and scopes. My partner and I had a small, under 40 person wedding in the hotel’s Canberra Room on June 2nd—and our guests are still raving about the attentive and seamless service. All wedding packages come with ample structure, provisions, and complimentary inclusions; and yet still enough flexibility to truly personalize the day. But I really must rave about Louise and the Hotel’s wedding planning and event staff! With her assistance, I was able to plan our wedding from the middle of the Pacific Ocean (my partner and I are cruise ship employees). I cannot recommend this venue and these people enough.!
