Comfortable and friendly, great staff. Close to all the theatres. Was concerned about new owners (I've stayed many times before) but the only difference was a few upgrades. Still my favourite place to stay when I'm in town

Access to our room on 3rd floor from front entrance difficult. Had to navigate past a narrow area along the bar to get to the back & open a very heavy door to access the elevator. Separate front entrance had very steep stairs to climb. Not ideal for older guests with luggage.

Loved Foster's!!

I booked an extra day at the last minute. The staff (Laurie) worked with me to make the transition to a new room seamless. The service in the dining room (Scott) was excellent with respect to recommendations and knowledge of the menu.

When I voiced my concern about no onsite parking staff were very argumentative and unprofessional. I was also double billed on my credit card and was unable to contact the hotel directly. I have had to waste time and effort to get the issue resolved. As of this time the money has not been returned to my card!

Everything at the hotel was very satisfactory. However the bed mattress Was deeply grooved in the centre. it caused us ( in a queen ) to constantly roll into a valley and bump into each other. Thus repeatedly disturbing our nights sleep. A new mattress is suggested. We were in the “Skylite” room 3 rd floor.

Liked that it was so close to town. Nice high ceilings making the room appear very spacious. Would liked it to have a bath tub, but otherwise, excellent stay.

Located centrally. The room had no windows, only a skylight so even during the day it was darkness in the room however the skylight had no coverage so early in the morning the room was lit up. Also, the bathroom had a large window so if someone uses the bathroom at night and turns on the light, it lights up the sleeping area. Parking is not at the hotel but in a free public parking lot several blocks away.

It was an okay stay.....decent sized room and good price for being downtown Stratford. I was told I would get my receipt for my stay via email but that never arrived.....so never did get to see a final "bill" for my stay. We stayed on the second floor which was fine. There is a bar/restaurant downstairs. We did go in there for a drink but staff didn't seem overly attentive.....so left and went to other places (The Starlight, The Relic Bar, Chuck's Roadhouse) which were great! There is free parking for Fosters but it is 5 - 10 minutes away. I would stay here again if the price is right.

Very well located downtown Stratford. Parking was in free public lot around the corner. Not a huge deal because very safe area. Was a little inconvenient from a luggage standpoint. Great restaurant in main floor of Inn. Lots of shopping and restaurants within walking distance. Very quick walk to River and walkway along River. Very beautiful little town. The Festival Theatre a quick drive or 20 min walk.

Everything was great. New management so a learning curve to some of the smaller details. It would have been nice if there was a mini fridge in the room. Wasnt clear about room service but easy to order and pick up from restaurant area. A few details on expedia don't match up ie breakfast hours.

Loved the ambience of this Inn. The food at the restaurant was cooked to perfection - our compliments to the chef!! Ryan & Ted where very helpful suggesting places to dine, theatres to take in a performance, & providing a map of the areas' attractions. The Inn was in the perfect location to walk most everything the theatre district has to offer. My daughter & I had a wonder time, dispite the rainy weather. We'll be back!
Bar at the entrance to the restaurant - Warm & inviting 😊
Tomato, mushroom, spinach pappardelle - Delicious!
