A Breathtaking Journey Through History My visit to Windsor Castle was an absolutely unforgettable experience. It is not just a castle; it is a living monument to British history and royalty, and it truly deserves its reputation. The castle itself is magnificently grand and imposing, set against beautifully manicured lawns and pristine gardens. The contrast between the sturdy, historic stone walls and the flawless green landscaping is strikingly beautiful. Inside, the arrangement of the State Apartments is both logical and fascinating. Each room flows into the next, revealing its unique function, from grand halls for ceremonies to more intimate living quarters. They are beautifully preserved and offer a genuine sense of how the palace operated. Furthermore, the furnishings are not merely decorative; they are functional pieces of art. The vast and diverse collections are utterly precious. I was particularly captivated by the extensive array of portraits of royal members. These paintings, varying in size, are so vividly lifelike that they seem to breathe, telling the story of the monarchy across the centuries. The entire visit was an eye-opening and dazzling spectacle. It leaves one in deep awe of the British Royal Family's centuries of influence, global history, and their immense accumulation of cultural and artistic treasures. It was, without a doubt, a trip that was worth taking in every sense.

First time visiting and was blown away at the history and beauty of the Castle, the church and grounds. The town is charming as well. This is a must see, easy trip via overland train from London. Get the audio tour headsets as it’s included and will make the experience worthwhile.

I went las Saturday to see the change of guards, it is amazing!!! It it important to wait for them (10:50 am approx) if you arrive early, otherwise you won’t have time or the best location to see them. The exhibition is quite amazing, and unbelievable!

Its an english castle. Well kept. I Its slightly less for value of money. Would advice to buy tickets in advance as that will save money. If you are visiting multiple castles throughout UK, kindly buy a pass for them as that will be cheaper rather than buying tickets at every castle. No pictures allowed inside.

Over the past 40 years that I have been coming to London, I somehow avoided Windsor Castle for no reason except that there were other things to do but on this trip I am glad to say that I finally visited it and I was not disappointed. I especially was fond of the chapel. I’m not religious whatsoever, but the burial chamber of the Queen was worth seeing. The crest room as seen in one of these photos fascinated me. The tour guides and Museum staff were helpful and knowledgeable.

The Windsor Castle and Town are a must to visit! An authentic place with it's atmosphere and history. While visiting the castle you get the audio guide and it is really easy to walk, listen and admire. We spent here about 4h to visit each and every chamber and exhibition. Great experience!

​Having traveled all the way from India, and after visiting the incredible Warwick Castle, I have to be honest: Windsor Castle, while historically important, didn't quite deliver the overall tourist experience I was hoping for. ​The Good (The Royal Legacy) ​The castle is undeniably an icon of British royalty and history. It’s a privilege to walk through a working royal palace, and the sheer scale of the place, from the State Apartments to the beautiful St. George’s Chapel (the final resting place of Queen Elizabeth II), is impressive. If you are deeply invested in the British Royal Family, the sense of gravitas and history is palpable. The audio guide is excellent and helps paint a picture of the centuries of monarchy. ​The Letdown (The Visitor Experience) ​This is where it lost two stars for me. Compared to the kind of packed, energetic experience we often see in top historical attractions (think of the crowds and chaos at a major Indian monument, but in a good way!), Windsor felt a little too stiff and hands-off. ​No Photos Allowed Inside: This was a huge disappointment. In a digital world where every moment is a memory captured, the strict ban on photography inside the State Apartments means you walk through grand, gorgeous rooms and leave with only the memory, not the image. At Warwick Castle, I could take pictures of the fascinating exhibits, which made it feel much more engaging. ​Less "Attraction" and More "Museum": Warwick Castle is owned by a theme park company (Merlin) and it shows—they packed it with live historical shows, interactive elements, wax figures, and birds of prey displays. Windsor, by contrast, is a royal home and a museum for priceless art. If you want a fun day with lots of shows and activities, skip Windsor and go to Warwick. ​Verdict for an Indian Visitor ​If your main goal is to tick off the oldest and largest occupied castle in the world and see the pomp of the British monarchy, then come here. ​However, if you are looking for a more interactive, family-friendly, and all-around tourist-attraction-style historical experience—where your ticket price buys you more spectacle and the freedom to take photos—you will find Warwick Castle a far more fulfilling day out.

I came to Salisbury for the cathedral but fell in love with this chapel. I sat down for the last of the service one evening and they were kind to allow me to take a look before closing. I returned the next two days to just sit and enjoy. Highly recommend!!

Visiting Windsor Castle and St. George's Chapel on the grounds was beautiful. It was a lovely day and many visitors. The visitors were happy and friendly.

Highly recommended! St George's Chapel is a Gothic chapel located in the lower bailey of Windsor Castle in Berkshire, England. Windsor, the most important castle in England, is the primary residence of the monarch. The castle chapel is under the direct jurisdiction of the monarch and is the seat of the Congregation of the Order of the Garter. The castle chapel was founded in the 14th century by King Edward III and significantly expanded in the late 15th century. It is the site of many royal church services, weddings and funerals. If you bought a ticket to visit Windsor Castle, the chapel is included in the ticket price. You can also buy a separate ticket for much cheaper if you do not plan to visit the castle. A castle + chapel ticket costs 35 pounds, a ticket only for the chapel is about 7 pounds. Information accurate as of June 2025. P.S. I try to share specific information. If the review was useful, put 👍. I don't get any "goodies", but other tourists will see this review first. Have a good mood and exciting travels!🌍☀️🪂

A nice chapel, very informative details shared on the headphone guide set. I also saw the memorial where Queen Elizabeth II and Duke of Edinburgh was buried and also the main church where there were previous royal weddings and funerals. Sadly can't take pictures of inside the chapel.

The chapel in Kings college is amazing, but not quite worth 20+ pounds.

Within the grounds of Windsor Castle and a bit of a misnomer.... chapel, it's more like a cathedral. Epic historical building. No photography allowed inside. Built in the late medieval perpendicular Gothic style. Founded in the 14th century. Definitely worth going to see if you like architecture as the interior is magnificent and awesome.

Went to a service at St. George’s Chapel at Windsor Castle and it was beautiful hearing the choir. The service was quite full with a national scout day so I’d be curious to visit when less people are there.

Cool little museum showing the Eton life, nice walk along the river also.

Some interesting facts but I was expecting a bit more. It is free to visit though and the staff were very friendly. Do check before visiting as it has very limited opening hours

Very interesting, well explained. Only open on Sunday afternoons. And free!

Absolutely sickened by the photos of Boris and Davey C

interesting. nice building and surrounds. Only open Sunday afternoons!

It seems that it is not open.

Very nice. I want to become a student again 😀

Such a great breakfast, the bread was nice and light, we had a veggie breakfast and an egg&bacon roll along with a lovely hot pot of tea! I mean it’s next to a petrol station but you don’t really notice that, great stop while you get your car serviced at Autocare. I heard the pizzas are incredible, yet to try!

Found this place by pure chance, it is such a delightful eatery. Margherita pizza, Alfredo with king prawns, tiramisu and cheesecake were all so so good.. will deffo be going back.

The food was freshly made and so good. We didn't have a chance to get a full meal but did try bruschetta and lasagna for a light lunch. Would love to go back for pizzas and others.

This place is amazing! Food is absolutely incredible. This was the best pizza I had in UK. Highly recommend this restaurant!

I am sorry owner for my low review, but I consider is fair peoples know my experience, and don't make it wrong like us. We find you on Google Maps on a high review, while being in holiday around your area and we said deserve to try you for a dinner... We find the food to be expensive, but we didn't run away, expecting an extrem italian quality + big portions under this high review., but was normal quality, with decent small portions.., nothing extreme to reflect that expensive prices.. I may be a poor old facion person.....but what hurt the most was that 10% service charges(+6£) on top of the bill.., just like that..even we paid £60 for 2×12" pizzas, 2×portions of pastas + 2×small sparking waters.. In over 15 years living in UK, and traveling many times in Italy and Spain, I didn't find yet big restaurants to charge this amount.., what to say about your small 20-25 seats shop..., with a restricted shared parking. I'm sorry again, but I think is right to be fare, and is good for new clients to prepare that, in the end they will pay 10% on top of the exposed prices.

Lovely Italian i will call it proper Italian restaurant very fast order pizza margarita come in minutes the sourdough home made lovely simple delicious 😋 😀. Come back the second have lovely bacon and hasb brown on a bap from the first bite I new that bap was made in house succulents well-done guys

Possibly the best lasagna I’ve had! We ordered the burrata starter, the lasagna, and a half cheese, half pepperoni pizza for the kids. The food was delicious! I recommend asking the server what is best because ours gave us great guidance. The location is a little weird, it’s between an auto shop and a gas station, but the restaurant itself is very cute. I also ordered a latte, but sent it back because it was very bitter. I told our waitress we would of course still pay for it, but she still took it off the receipt and offered to make us another. I’m a big coffee drinker and am being honest when I say it was pretty bad, but I think they roast their own beans and it might have been a fluke…so maybe still give it a try.
