Great location, nice property, friendly staff. However, we wish we had known that we were staying at the apartments and not the inn. I'm still recovering from a long illness, and thought we would be at the Inn and thus have an elevator. There are quite a few stairs at the apartments.

The staff and location were great. Parking is a problem. You have to park behind YMCA where there is free public parking. The room was very clean and spacious. There was a neat window at the top of the wall of the bathroom. It was neat until it was time for bed. The kids didn’t want the room dark so we put the bathroom light on. It was crazy bright. So bring a nightlight. Beds were very very hard! I have never slept in a bed so hard. All in all its a nice hotel. But for the cost I don’t think I will be back. It would have been nice if we got a breakfast voucher or something for the restaurant. For the price we paid.

Great location
Great laid-back stay in a well-appointed studio apartment a few blocks away from the main hotel. Apartment is a walkup with somewhat steep stairs. Excellent location with lots of restaurants and convenient to Stratford Festival theatres.

There is nothing not to love about Foster's Inn! We have stayed here at least half a dozen times in the last few years - the staff are great, the restaurant 5 stars and the rooms are spacious and beautifully furnished.

This is a fantastic place if you just need a convenient place to stay downtown Stratford and are only going for a night. The room was really neat but just needs so more love. What got us most is that there is a smell like you visited your grandmas house and she has been a smoker for 40 years. Some air fresheners, more attention to cleanliness and a fresh coat of paint will go a mile. Parking is a bit of a walk which was not what we were expecting because it’s not right on the property. The last concern is the noise. Not that people were making a ton of noise but the hallways are so lively and there really isn’t any sound dampening material in the hotel so you hear everything! This makes it a bit difficult at night or in the morning when you want to sleep and you hear people talking or turning on the shower or knocking on doors. Stay here for convenience but it has some issues.

Very homey, excellent dining room. This is a unique city centre Inn that sports an excellent dining room and a very cool bar. Within easy walking distance to two of the Stratford Festival theatres. A block from the main shopping and dining areas. Nice staff, clean spacious rooms, comfortable mattresses. Only downside is parking which a block away. Will definitely return.

Is really like an old-time pub with rooms except that it has all the modern amenities. My room this time (yes, I stayed here before and am already booked to be back) was minimal but the really friendly staff compensated. Very central for my needs and very comfortable

Perfect Location
We were in town for La Cages aux Folles and chose Foster's Inn as our base, and not a single regret. Our room was very clean, spacious, and quiet. All of the staff were so amazingly helpful. The night of the show we were running a little late, and their restaurant staff ensured we received our meal quickly so as to make the show on time - thank you! And we didn't have to go far - the theater is across the street! The entire downtown was at our hotel's doorstep - so incredibly convenient. We never used our car during our entire stay. Everything was no further than a couple of blocks in each direction. We're both very grateful for all the effort Foster's Inn puts into their presentation and hospitality. We'll definitely be back!
