Hotels near Windsor Castle

Windsor Castle is a royal residence at Windsor in the English county of Berkshire, about 25 miles (40 km) west of central London. It is strongly associated with the English and succeeding British royal family, and embodies almost a millennium of architectural history.

291 hotels within 5km of Windsor Castle in Windsor and Maidenhead, United Kingdom, with nightly rates from around £41 to £573 (averaging £147), including 47 properties rated 4 stars or higher. The closest is Stylish Stay- Windsor Castle- Parking- By Tempstay, about 0.2km away.

Windsor is small enough that "near the castle" genuinely means near everything else too — the town centre, the river, the shopping streets and the station are all folded into the same compact grid around the walls. That's borne out in our numbers: 132 of the 285 hotels listed sit within a kilometre of the castle, so for once "close by" isn't marketing spin, it's simply how the town is built. The practical question isn't really distance, then, but which street and which price bracket, since options range from modest guesthouses to more polished stays, with 43 of the 285 rated 4-star or above.

Basing yourself right in the old town, near the castle walls and Eton Bridge, suits anyone wanting to walk out after breakfast and be inside the state apartments before the coach parties arrive, or to wander over into Eton in the evening once the day-trippers have gone. It also makes sense if you're combining Windsor with a London day out by rail, since the station links sit within that same short walk. Staying a little further out — towards the Great Park or the edges of town — tends to bring quieter, sometimes better-value rooms, at the cost of a short drive or bus ride back in, which matters more if you're also trying to fit in Stonehenge or a London day exploring Westminster Abbey and the Eye.

Given the density of options within that 1km ring, it's worth choosing on quality and quiet rather than assuming you must sacrifice location for either.
