About The Christopher Hotel
The Christopher is the only hotel on Eton High Street, occupying a former coaching inn that served the London to Bath road before the bridge to Windsor was closed to traffic. That closure is the making of it: the High Street is now pedestrianised at the Windsor end, so evenings in Eton are genuinely quiet once the day visitors have crossed back over the bridge. Windsor Castle is about a seven-minute walk away.
There are 34 rooms in a range of sizes, from deluxe singles through cosy and kingsize doubles up to family rooms and junior suites. A number sit in the converted mews and courtyard buildings behind the main house rather than on the street, and these are the quietest. All are en suite, with Hypnos beds, flat-screen televisions, desks, laptop safes, tea and coffee facilities and high-speed internet. Rates include a full English breakfast, and booking direct adds a welcome drink.
The Christopher Bar and Grill handles food and drink through the day, and the hotel makes a good deal of its position among the antiquarian bookshops, galleries and pubs that fill the rest of the High Street. Eton College's buildings are at the far end, five minutes on foot, and the college's heritage tours leave from there in season.
This suits visitors who want to be within walking distance of Windsor Castle without staying in the middle of the crowds, and it is noticeably better value than the equivalent room across the river. There is limited parking behind the hotel, which should be requested when booking. Windsor and Eton Riverside station is around ten minutes on foot.

What guests say
We stayed for 2 nights this week and the staff could not have made us more welcome. They were all brilliant, helpful and friendly. From check-in, to breakfast and check-out, the staff are what made it for us. The room was spacious, clean, well-equipped and the bed was very comfortable. Breakfast offered lots of choice and there was plenty of it. It was a bonus to have parking too. Thank you all so much.

I experienced my first trip to Europe - Windsor/Eton in May and it was the time of my life. I stayed at the Christopher Hotel which was beyond fabulous. The staff was friendly and went above and beyond. The room was great and it had the best shower ever! I also was introduced to a full English Breakfast and loved it. I would highly recommend this hotel. It's also in great walking distance of a lot of things to do.

We've just thoroughly enjoyed 2 nights at the Christopher Hotel. Great rooms, great location and great service from lovely people. The breakfast and service was a highlight of both days. The comfortable bed was enormous. It felt like I slept in Eton and the wife slept in Windsor. The parking is good if booked in advanced to guarantee a space but does cost an extra £15 per night.
