Stacey Couples - 22/08/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

Really enjoyed our stay. While it was a little pricey it was a lovely room and the 11am check out was amazing. We were able to head out for breakfast and a walk around without all our bags then pop back to pick them up just before checkout. Late checkout is always something I look for from a hotel. The room is not large and the view isn't the greatest but it has been designed beautifully and they have done a great job with the limited space. The bathroom was lovely and the shower was superb! Nothing more frustrating that a poor shower, this one was great!!

Wonderful service from all staff, but the restaurant meal and service were outstanding and really appreciated. Can not speak highly enough of the staff from checkin to valet service, concierge, waiting staff to chefs and room attendants, they made our stay memorable and enjoyable. Room was very comfortable and quiet.

michaelhL1375WB 04/02/2021 TripAdvisor review

We felt cared for the whole time. We had an issue with our room but the way they looked after it was amazing. This included moving rooms and extra service that more than made up for it. Staff and managers were super friendly and we felt very special. I will always look to stay here whenever I’m in Auckland due to the way you’re looked after. The hotel is close to all amenities. This is the best hotel I’ve ever stayed at.

Dear michaellhL1375WB, Thank you very much for taking the time and reviewing your recent stay at Hotel Grand Windsor. We are very pleased when we read your review and I am glad that you enjoyed your stay with us and had good interactions with our efficient and friendly staff.

Two night stay

TripAdvisor rating 5.0/5

fourofuss66 03/02/2021 TripAdvisor review

A perfect spot to stay if visiting Central Auckland .Easy access to the Ferry Terminal and Britomart . The grand Windsor lives up to it's name as it's a lovely Boutique Hotel with charming and professional staff. Everything was spotless and our room very comfortable.It really is a 4 star hotel with all the added extras that one would expect but doesn't always get . My only negative comment would be the meals.They were beautifully cooked and presented but extremely expensive and if we were not accor members I doubt we would not have eaten in the dinning room . However it would still be my number one choice of places to stay in Down Town Auckland. .

Dear fourfuss66, Thank you ever so much for taking the time to share your recent experience on TripAdvisor. It is always a true delight to read when our guests have experienced an exceptional stay. I love that you were able to fully immerse yourself into the full experience that the hotel and our local neighbourhood has to offer. The team and I look forward to welcoming you back when you are next in the city of Sails. Warm Regards, Pablo Gonzalez Guest Experience Manager

Our favorite Auckland hotel

TripAdvisor rating 5.0/5

davidmck2020 12/12/2020 TripAdvisor review

We have stayed at the Grand Windsor several times now, it's like a home away from home. The location is good for us, easy walking distance to Viaduct Basin and Britomart. We like the intimacy and character of this hotel, it's cool and dark - a welcome relief from the heat and glare outside. In winter it's cosy. The staff are great, Pablo out front and Maria in the restaurant were especially helpful and friendly. We have a favorite room that we always book, away from the noise of the nightclub next door (be warned if you're a light sleeper staying on a Friday or Saturday night). My wife is a coeliac so dining can be a minefield for her. The restaurant staff were super careful which was a relief. We can highly recommend this hotel, not that we want it to get TOO popular!

Dear davidmck2020, What can we say? On behalf of the hotel, thank you for your lovely words. I am sure that this feedback will serve as an encouragement to all of our staff as we strive to continuously improve the quality of our services. It is always a pleasure to host you, and we will be waiting for your next visit in 2021. Merry Christmas! Pablo Gonzalez Guest Experience Manager
