There are many different hotel styles in the Windsor, Maidenhead and Ascot area – from boutique or heritage hotels to the ultra-modern – with a range of star ratings. 



Hotels have to be licensed, offer dinner at least five nights a week and all rooms have to be en suite or with private bathrooms.  The services and facilities on offer differ between hotels, for example some may have leisure facilities such as swiming pools and spas. 

All the national assessing bodies now assess hotels and guest accommodation (including B&Bs) to a set of specific criteria and award one to five stars.  The star ratings reflect the overall quality of the experience.  Places that 'go the extra mile' to make your stay a special one will be awarded a high star rating and hotels and guest accommodation may achieve a Gold or Silver Award.
