G'Day Peeps,
Just came back from a 4 day business trip and stayed at the Windsor Lodge. Boy Oh Boy am I glad I did. The place was in a very central spot for all my appointments that were North,South, East and West. I think it was around the $140 per night mark. Not sure, work paid. But if I was paying, that's good value.
The place was very clean, relatively quiet and the staff were really accommodating and the pool was always clean. Not only was it central for my appointments, it had everything I needed within a 100 metre distance. Up the top of the hill was an IGA store, a bottle shop, a pub and a service station for filling up the hire car as the Ned Kelly bunch at the Car Hire place charge 3 bucks a litre if you forget to fill up.
I did have a few crook meals during my stay but they were not from the Windsor, you'll have to read my reviews on the Golden Mile Chinese across the road and one on a Pizza Joint nearby called All Night Pizza Cafe. The Windsor did have a restaurant on site that regular guests said was nice but that was closed until 10th Feb. Maybe next trip.
I'll tell you where I did have a bloody good feed, it was from the Como IGA I mentioned above. They have a section that cooks meats, veggies, pastas and rices and silly me told myself " you only need the $11.50 meal" didn't I. The roast pork meal i got was absolutely magnificent and I wished I had of got the bigger one for $16.50. Dumb and Dumber had more brains. I washed it down with a bottle of Howard Park Margaret River Cab Sav. It was also that bloody good, I should have got 2 of them.
So if your ripping over to Perth for business or pleasure, stay here. I'll be dammed sure I will be when I go back in a few months. Gunna get that $16.50 size, they ain't fooling me again. And 2 Howard Parks.
