Old bones given new life

This us a very old property in a very lovely town. The new management has done an admirable job of dressing it up, but the bones are still "old". The staff are all very friendly and try very hard to please.

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.

The room is what you would expect in an older building as far as size. It was clean and comfortable. But, according to the Expedia ad all rooms are queen or king. Our bed was a double. Also the ad says are room are accessible by elevator and my wife is currently using crutches. Room 221 and several others are up 12 steps after the elevator. We were told we could pay an additional $50 for an accessible room. Not cool.

The hotel was perfect. The only down fall was the restaurant was closed, however the espresso machine in the room more than made up for it.

Lovely stay in Stratford

Since I am currently having mobility issues from an injury, the staff quickly helped us get our luggage out of the car and up to our room and the same when we left, they helped us get the luggage packed in our car. We also received a beautiful treat in our room for our anniversary celebration. The room was clean and beautiful, not to mention the great proximity to the theater and downtown Stratford.

We chose this hotel because of the proximity to the theatre and some great dining options that were walkable. We thought the location was perfect for that. The staff were terrific. The only downside for us was that the room was smaller than we expected. It would have been perfect for an overnight but we stayed for two nights so found the size to be a bit of an issue the second day.. We loved the breakfast box in the room. The bed was very comfy and we had two good night's sleep. We enjoyed our stay.

Review

The place looked newly renovated, but it was very dirty. There were many flies around, dead bugs on the floor, and stains. We don’t think the sheets were cleaned or changed before we arrived. They did change the sheets on our last night, so we had one night where it felt fresher. The restaurant was closed, but the room included a continental breakfast, so we received breakfast boxes in our room instead—however, they were not allergy-friendly! Be sure to notify them about any allergies in advance. Breakfast boxes included a muffin(nut muffin or blueberry muffin), yogurt, and a mandarin orange. Check-in was fine, but nothing special. The lady who gave us new sheets on the last night was very kind and offered excellent service—thank you! Otherwise, we’ll probably book elsewhere next time. The location is good, though. Parking needs to be reserved, or they offer a “sister lot” at another hotel. We opted for the free parking lot about a 5-minute walk away. The room at the front is convenient for parking and checking in/out.

Staff were friendly helpful. Room was fantastic. We needed 3 beds and expected to get a room with 3 beds in it, what we got was a small condo. 3 separate bedrooms full kitchen large living and dining area. It was really great. It was very spacious and quiet. The parking was very convenient too. Would stay here again anytime

The location is the best in Stratford, especially if you can secure parking in their lot. The facilities are old but reasonably comfortable. Staff was very accommodating. The experience will improve when they reopen the restaurant for breakfast.

Enjoyed our stay

We enjoyed our stay at the Windsor Hotel. This legacy hotel has been renovated to be stylish and comfortable. While food service was limited to a breakfast box, it was high-quality. There are lots of places for a hot breakfast close by if desired. The location of the hotel can’t be beat, as it is just steps to downtown and many restaurants and to the theaters.
