‘From the start of planning our wedding in August 2022, Calum has been amazing. Our wedding was beyond our expectations and it wouldn’t have been possible without the staff at The Castle Hotel. Calum efficiently answered all of my enquiries quickly and went above & beyond to make it the perfect day for us. I have also had feedback, from my guests and they have endorsed how smoothly and special Calum’s efforts were to ensure all of my requests were fulfilled. I would also like to thank the other staff who were on duty that day in addition to Calum, his colleagues who also helped. Everyone was so friendly. I would like to extend my gratitude to everyone at The Castle Hotel in making our day extremely special. Calum, is an asset to The Castle Hotel’.

The whole day was brilliant, the Ballroom Suite was exactly how I wanted it! The floor plan, seating and red carpet all in the right places! All my requests on the room were listened to! My guests said the food was fantastic. A few of my guests commented on how attentive the staff was on the night. If I ever have the chance to come again and run an event, I most certainly will.

We recently tied the knot at the Castle Hotel, and we couldn't be happier with our choice! Our day was absolutely perfect from start to finish. Our wedding coordinator Calum was exceptional and was on top of every single detail every step of the way. The reception was setup exactly as I had explained and looked perfect. The day wouldn't have been a success without him!! Our banqueting manager Abdul was also fantastic, he was very personable and very accomodating. The food was outstanding and produced by a true master. Needless to say all plates were clear with no complaints but admiration from a very picky and foodie crowd. Thank you so much, you turned our special day into unforgettable experience that we will cherish for many years to come. We wholeheartedly recommend The Castle Hotel to all couples seeking a truly magical day! With the greatest thanks Mike & Essie ❤️ https://www.instagram.com/reel/CvVGsnpo3KS/?igshid=MTc4MmM1YmI2Ng==

Amazing staff and Hotel

We got married in Windsor and had the hotel first as a base for ny fiancée to get ready, then as a venue for reception. The Events team with Calum and Hannah along with all the staff were fantastic throughtout. The service and food for the reception was superb. The help , messages and little extra details from the staff were very nice. Thank you so much for helping make our special day extra special.

Perfect venue ! Perfect wedding !

We had our wedding reception at the castle hotel on 29th June 2018 this year we are so glad we picked this venue. The day was perfect and the team at castle hotel were helpful and had everything done to perfection. Right from the moment we saw this venue 3 years ago we fell in love with the Windsor suite and knew this is where we wanted to celebrate our special day in the beautiful ballroom. Kate was our planner and she made sure the day was everything we wanted and help us with all our needs. The food was out of this world and really catered for my allergy and the guests are still saying now how fabulous the food and service was. Monica was our event planner for the day and she was absolutely amazing. She made sure everything was set up on time , all the food was out on time and that myself and my husband was satisfied and our guests. I can't thank the castle hotel enough for the amazing service and food they did for us on our wedding day and all the planning to the run up of the day. I would recommend any bride or groom who are looking for the perfect venue to go with the castle hotel. We will definitely revisit the castle hotel for our first wedding anniversary and I have been since for my birthday afternoon tea which was lovely. One of my favourite hotels in the area and it holds one of the best memories in my life !

We had a fantastic time at The Castle Hotel on Friday. Please thank your team in the bar area who were so friendly and welcoming. We had six excitable children running around but the staff created such a relaxed vibe that we didn't feel stressed out by it. The food was exceptional. Everything came out perfectly, cooked exactly to order and everyone enjoyed their food. The steaks were a massive hit our guests mentioned them again and again they were so tasty. A lovely touch giving the married couple a glass of champs too. The table was set out beautifully, we have some great photos of us all in there- happy to share if you'd like. All of our guests commented on how modern and chic it was. A special thanks goes out to Tony (I really hope this is his name) he was in charge of looking after us in the Oak Room. He went above and beyond when he noticed I was trying to change the collection time of our transportation. He took their number from me, contacted them himself and sorted it all out for me- OUTSTANDING! The only thing I would change is we needed some back ground music in there, which Tony promptly sorted for us with the Bose speaker. We didn't think about it until half way through our meal. Not a criticism at all, I should of thought about it prior to the meal and it would have been there waiting for us I'm sure. Thank you again for making the whole experience with the Castle Hotel so enjoyable. The communication has been excellent throughout. Any queries have been dealt with quickly and efficently and I would highly recommend your services. With best wishes Jenny

A Magical Wedding

Castle hotel is one of two places we chose for our most special day. We never got the chance to visit Windsor before choosing it, so we had to rely on photos. The Staff made it easier for us as they offered to show us everything via zoom meetings. I'll skip to the end - it was simply magical. Every single employee was nice and extremely professional. The event was organized exactly as we planned it, and it exceeded our expectations. It was truly a dream come true. The hotel itself is gorgeous and is located right next to Windsor Castle. It is an ideal location for all who want to explore the beauty of Windsor. The entire experience was magical, and we will be forever grateful for everyone involved, and especially to Calum who was in charge of organizing everything.
