WHAT OUR GUESTS SAY

  • Leanne - Expedia review, Nov. 2024

    “This is the fourth time I’ve stayed here. The last two have been drastic improvements. The refurbishments are obvious. The character of the bldg is somewhat respected. The staff are kind. The room is fresh. And the complimentary treats were a pleasant surprise. Love being downtown. Thank you. Will be back again”

  • Laura W - Google review, Sep, 2024

    “This hotel is in the perfect spot for touring Stratford. The building is older but the rooms are quaint, comfortable and easily accessible. The highlight was the staff who were so attentive. They responded quickly to assist us as needed and their communication was stellar. The welcome treats, boxed breakfast at the door and turn-down service were lovely extras. They even took care of a gluten-free requirement with my food. I travel in Ontario often and this is the first hotel I've been to in a long time that really seem to care about making the stay an experience rather than just a transaction.”

  • Adam N. - Google review, Sep 2024

    “We had a fantastic stay at the windsor. Staff are super friendly and accommodating. The hotel has character so often missing in the current spectrum of Marriott like offerings, plus clean and bright. Complimentary snacks were a nice surprise Would definitely recommend.”

  • Robert B. - Google review, Aug, 2024

    “My wife and I were visiting Stratford and were fortunate enough to choose this beautifully appointed and perfectly located hotel. One block from the Avon Theater, and within a short walk to shops and restaurants, this hotel couldn't have been more convenient! A mix of European Style and modern elegance, the hotel features an impressive grand staircase, as well as an efficient modern elevator to access floors. The staff was extremely friendly and informative. We had a wonderful discussion with the manager who gave us a behind the scenes tour, and told us of the upcoming plans for further renovation, which sounds absolutely wonderful! We look forward to our next visit!”

  • Kate R. - Google review, July, 2024

    “Best service I’ve ever had in a hotel (better than the Fairmont!)”

  • Vijiti - Expedia review, Jul, 2024

    “Very nice hotel. Clean and renovated rooms but still has all the historic charm. Great location close to all shops, restaurants and river.”
