Mercure Windsor Castle Hotel, Windsor

The Castle Hotel is located directly across from the Windsor Castle. Convenient to walk over and take a tour of the real castle. The hotel is quaint, does not have Air Conditioning or at least did not in 1996. Unfortunately we went at a time when it was unusually hot, the staff did a wonderful job locating fans and serving cold drinks and ice cream to help aleviate the heat. The rooms are typical UK size rooms, a little on the small size. Very nice tea service set up in the room, and the bathroom had heated towel bars, which is nice. The village around the hotel is setup with many adorable shops and lots of eating facilities. The hotel lobby was very nice and presented a Living room atmoshphere where we mingled for drinks. It was a very special trip at a very special hotel, true feeling of royalty.
