Brimming with old-world charm and luxury, The Windsor is the last remaining grand heritage hotel in Australia. Established in 1883, it combines the classic beauty and architecture of the Victorian era with the graciousness of the time.
Nestled across parkland and the historic Parliament House in the heart of Melbourne (city), stepping through the polished brass doors here transports you to a quiet oasis. This is the only place where one can hold a meeting, conference or private event in the heritage-listed Grand Ballroom - a rarity in Melbourne and one that has left indelible impressions on guests both Australian and international.
In recent years, The Windsor has expanded into a collection of hospitality establishments including two hat native Australian x modern Asian restaurant Aru, modern Australian restaurant & bakery Antara, and notable Asian-Australian bakery Kudo. These also feature private dining rooms for entertaining.
