The staff were lovely. We were welcomed with a drink and sweet snack while we were waiting to check in. We arrived very early, but they accommodated us by giving us a main floor room - which was lovely, but quite noisy from traffic, until check in time when we were given a fabulous room on the 5th floor. It’s an old hotel with lots of character. The view from our balcony was spectacular. The breakfast and light dinner options were great and the meals in the cafe were very good - service was a little slow - the violinist was exceptional. I would stay here again.

Menu very limited, no toasties or light bites. Hotel next door to a collapsed building, our window overlooked a rubbish dump next to the beach.watch for scammers in reception area, booking a taxi to airport for me ( 3000 EP) I actually got one myself for 650Ep, Would I go back??? NEVER, On the plus side waiters and cleaners work hard .

First off, this is old Alexandria. The former palace is very grand, with history. The six floor restaurant is excellent. The staff really help make this place and are prompt and friendly. You come to such a hotel to experience the former glory of Alexandria. In this I was impressed. The problems is that place needs extensive maintenance. It is quite run down. My toilet was cracked and the bidet valve leaked water on the floor unless really tightened. My outdoor chair was cracked. It might be acceptable for Egyptians getting a discount rate, but for foreigners paying higher prices, this isn't really acceptable.

Only a one night stay but what a perfect place to be in Alexandria and recapture a little old world charm. The location is the best if you want to be in old Alex - 20 min walk to library and 20 min walk to Citadel - all along the beautiful Corniche. Christina at reception was wonderful helping us arrange a local tour and a taxi back to Cairo at the last minute! 10/10 for sure!

Beautiful old hotel that has been neglected a bit. My rug in my room was not vacuumed. My shower didn’t drain and I wasn’t given enough towels for 2 people. Next to the hotel is a vacant lot full of trash and barking wild dogs. Hotel should contact lot owner or city officials to remedy this eyesore. Rooms were beautiful and recently remodeled. Balcony had view of sea and vacant trash lot. Don’t get the light dinner. It was terrible. Not tasty at all and more like appetizers and not good ones. Breakfast was great. The Windsor has a remarkable location and views of the sea from their restaurant. Some of the furniture in the hallways are actually dirty and gross and need to be discarded as well as the curtains on the ground floor.

Be for-warned, if you are a light sleeper and have a ocean view room on the main street, the HORNS, horns, beeping from cars, mini buses, motorcycles is just insane and loud, it just never stops. GREAT staff and very helpful. The staff made my 3 night stay, they were wonderful. My flight arrived early from Saudi Aribia and they allowed me access to my room extra early ..... THANK YOU. The light dinner they refer to are just small finger food items. not very good. Great refrigerator, Good Wifi. Wonderful old world charm including the elevator. Again wonderful staff ....THANK YOU. I would return,

Location! Location! Location! The view! The view!!
The Windsor Hotel is an exquisitely preserved heritage hotel right on the waterfront “Corniche” of central Alexandria. The hotel was built in 1906 and the owner has tried to preserve as much of the original aesthetic as possible. You will time travel a century back in time when you use the elevator to your room. The view from the 6th floor restaurant is spectacular! You will enjoy your breakfast with a 180 degree view of the Mediterranean with the Citadel of Qaitbay to your left and the Library of Alexandria to your right. The staff have been trained meticulously in customer service so you feel like you are in a five star hotel. Every staff member smiles and warmly greets you as if you are the most important guest in town. Highly recommended!

I am satisfied with the hotel and the staff , the only thing that was frustrating was that in your website it showed sea view room , but once I booked the room that disappears and only showed smoking room . I have to pay an extra 15$ US to get a sea view … a bit frustrating … maybe you as Wotif could verify that this kind of mistake is not done . Thank you
