Christmas is a time of joy. Christmas gifts on the other hand can present plenty of challenges. They look so good in the store but how often have you witnessed these scenarios:
* The sweater she bought her mother did not quite fit.
* His wife was not enamoured with the necklace.
* Her husband never wore the tie once.
For 127 years Melbourne's famous Hotel Windsor has been creating memories to cherish forever and so for those people searching for the perfect Christmas gift, a Hotel Windsor gift certificate could be it.
"Hotel Windsor gift certificates increase in popularity year after year," David Perry, Hotel Windsor CEO and general manager, said. "The hotel can create a certificate for any occasion and, without doubt, certificates for afternoon tea or romantic accommodation getaways are clearly the most popular.
"It is hard to imagine anything but a radiant smile from the aunt or granddaughter who receives a voucher for a weekend afternoon tea indulgence or from your partner when the opportunity for a weekend at the magnificent five star Hotel Windsor becomes a reality."
The Hotel Windsor gift certificates start from a $100 voucher to be used in the signature 111 Spring Street restaurant for an elegant dinner experience. Gift certificates can be tailored to include traditional afternoon tea, restaurant meals or accommodation packages in one of the hotel's grand suites. Each certificate is personalised and presented in an elegant gift folder. Visit www.thehotelwindsor.com.au or call 03 9633 6000 and let The Hotel Windsor make all the arrangements.
Also available from The Hotel Windsor gift shop are the Windsor Teas. A beautiful collection of loose leaf teas, packaged in elegant Hotel Windsor tins, are available as a set or for individual sale.
The 180-room Hotel Windsor was built in 1883, pre-dating some of the world's leading grand hotels including the Savoy in London, which was built in 1889, the Waldorf Astoria in New York which dates back to 1893, and the Ritz Paris which opened in 1898.
