The hotel's biggest advantage is its location. it's walking distance to marine drive and just a short cab drive away to india gate. Along its street are good restaurants/bar (i.e. chopsticks, gaylord, not just jazz by the bay) It doesn't look at all appealing from the outside and the "lobby" is located at the 5th floor where you have to go to via a very old-looking elevator. But i was very surprised at its cleanliness. The room was big and although not equipped with modern facilities, it was very clean. The bed is hard though, but this is i think common in most of India mid-range hotels. It has good hot/cold shower. One thing i have noticed in hotels i've stayed in india is that they use these napthalene balls as odor minimizer in toilets....it's very irritating to the nose and most of the time, i'd find myself throwing them away each time i got into the newly-cleaned room. :)
The staff was very nice, courteous and very accomodating. The hotel doesn't have a restaurant (I think) coz we only ordered room service for breakfast. It's nothing fancy however, but you can also easily just go out and grab breakfast outside.
I highly recommend Chateau Windsor for budget hotel for its location and value for money.

| "We stayed in the renovated part of the hotel,so can't comment on the rest. Good location,Tariff and resturaunts nearby.Room spacious and clean. Staff were efficient,although impersonal. Noises seemed to echo throughout the hotel,especially after 7.00am. Could hear office telephone ring two floors away. Do recommend and would stay again." |

| "This hotel is really easy to find, just tells the taxi driver to go to the Ambassador Hotel in Churchgate, and Chateau Windsor is the building next door. The reception is on the 5th floor. There are varies kind of rooms, 1 to 4 people, with or without private bath, with or without breakfast, etc. Make sure to find out the type you are reserving ahead of time, or even better to have it in writing. They have a kitchen that only serve breakfast.
Upon arrival in an early Dec. night, they showed us a tiny room full of cigarette smell, without a private bathroom, right next to the reception. We refused but they insisted that this was the room we paid for and any room with a private bath will incurred an upgrade charge of $20 and up. Oh well, it was midnight and we were tired. So we ended up paying the additional charges for a bathroom. At least, the place was clean, Marine Drive was just a few buildings away, and there were plenty of good restaurants nearby. And these are the reasons why this place is still getting a 3/5 rating from us, just watch out for the bake and switch.
