Windsor Castle - European Luxury Par Excellence

A spectacular white castle on a little mount by M C Road, Kottayam with lush landscape on either side. The Windsor Castle is about 70 kms away from Kochi International Airport and very near to Kottayam railway station. Set like a jewel amidst 20 acres of lush foliage and landscaped lawns, on the evergreen banks of inland backwaters of the Vembanad Lake, the style and ambience is unmatched. As you sweep into the atrium, the easy life, peace and friendly smiles will surprise you. It is a charming mix of old-fashioned hospitality and contemporary amenities that typically incarnates the culture of Kerala.

Luxury in its pristine form permeates the elegantly done interiors that compliment the imposing facade. Modern comforts artfully coalesce understated elegance and complement the layouts in each of the 42 rooms. Seven spacious suite rooms are indulgently comfortable and furnished in rich classic tones with impeccable taste.

The courtly unobtrusive service here is truly reminiscent of royalty and grandeur. For a delectable meal head towards the 'Lake Paradise', facing the swimming pool, which offers a multi-cuisine buffet for lunch and dinner that is a feast for the taste buds and senses alike. The 'Sunset' restaurant serves a la carte multi-cuisine delicacies as diverse and colourful as the land itself. 'Nalikettu' is the heritage restaurant that specialises in authentic Kerala cuisine and finally, 'Anchor' in the charming poolside barbecue that is exceptionally appealing under starlit skies.

Winsor Castle is a centrally air-conditioned hotel with state-of-the-art rooms, swimming pool, doctor on call, 24-hour room service, a multispecialty restaurant, a specialty restaurant, pastry shop, book shop, beauty parlor, sprawling lawns, boating in the backwaters, money exchange facility, credit card acceptance, safety deposit lockers, international direct dialing, fax, email, car rentals, and parking space for more than 100 cars.
