About The Guildhall

This elegant 17th century masterpiece is situated in the heart of Royal Windsor just a few steps away from Windsor Castle. It is a stunning venue for weddings and special occasions available for hire 7 days a week, 12 months of the year.

The Guildhall is set among the splendour of historic Windsor which has easy transport links from Heathrow airport and the M4 motorway. There are also many hotels within walking distance of the Guildhall making venue access easy for you and your guests.
