We do our best (and then some) to ensure we keep groups on the same floor and, where physically possible, next to each other.

There are some physical limits that mean this might not be possible in all cases. We appreciate your understanding if you’re a little further away from your group.

All hotel irons will be located in ‘The Press Lounge’ – Room P3 on the ground floor. Smile at your fellow attendees while you iron out those creases!

Out of the lift turn left, and follow round.

Head down to the ground floor, turn left out of the lift and follow round to the stairs leading up to the gym.

You are free to have drinks (and bar) in your room, but personal drinks are not allowed on the ground floor or public area’s after 9pm each day

Yes! We are located minutes away from countless high street shops available for all your last minute retail requirements.

12pm on 1st January

Say hello to everyone you see! – its the social hub of the hotel, the common room, the place to smile and get to know new people!

The hotel has 200 rooms across 6 floors, all accessible via two lifts.

Daytime experiences and parties take place across the ground floor.  The layout below shows NYE party rooms.

Gorgeous Getaway Windsor VIP

Seating in the area will be allocated by our team on arrival with 6 people per table.

If you are in a group less than 6, you will be seated with other guests to fill the table. 

For groups over 6, where possible we will pre allocate area’s for you with tables near each other. We will complete that allocation when you arrive, in order to allow our team the flexibility to adjust seating allocations on the fly where necessary.

Live Dj's & hosts

All three days feature a powerhouse lineup of the hottest DJs the UK has to offer, bringing nothing but elite vibes from the moment you board the coach. Expect feel-good anthems, old-school classics, and the latest party-starting hits to keep the atmosphere electric from midday to sunset and beyond!

Whether you’re celebrating a big win, laughing off a near miss, or simply soaking in the glamour of Royal Ascot, the music will have you on your feet, glass in hand, dancing, singing and living your best life all day long.

This isn’t background music – it’s a full soundtrack to an unforgettable day of style, energy and non-stop celebration.

Breakfast

Start the day in style with a relaxed breakfast stop at the Hilton Hotel (or a similar premium venue), where you’ll enjoy a classic full English breakfast to fuel the celebrations ahead.

Think freshly cooked egg, crispy bacon, sausages, hash browns, beans, mushrooms and all the traditional trimmings, served in comfortable, elegant surroundings.

It’s the perfect chance to gather your group, enjoy a hot drink, soak up the anticipation, and ease into the day before heading on to the excitement and glamour of Royal Ascot.

Coach Journey

The experience begins from the moment you step on board. Our coaches become the first party of the day, complimentary drinks flowing, feel-good music setting the tone, and a lively, social atmosphere to have you in the mood long before we reach Ascot.

Expect classic anthems, sing-alongs, laughter and curated icebreakers to spark conversations, connect groups and turn strangers into friends.
