Our hotel room was decent. It was fairly large and comfortable. In particular, the bathroom was particularly big and the bed linens were clean and a reasonable quality. Having said this, it was far too expensive - $300 for one night and no breakfast included? I wasn't impressed with the AC in the room because it was so loud! I felt like I was sleeping in a cement mixer. The amenities were questionable too. The pool was a disconcerting yellowish green colour. Also, when we checked out, we were not even asked if we enjoyed our stay. Isn't that standard? All in all, it was convenient location wise to go to the theatre, but that's all this place really had going for it. I would not stay here again.

The property is a short 10 minute walk to the festival theatre and it is rather easy to walk into town. There is also a great little cafe across the street

Reasonably priced hotel to see Stratford shows

Location was great for the Festival Theatre and very walkable to the Avon Theatre. The other 2 theatres we did not attend but I think they are close by too. The room was a little dated and while it is nice to have the little bottles of shampoo, conditioner, lotion ... I know in most hotels nowadays, they are trying to be more eco-friendly with mounted toiletries amenities.
