The Inn is not an Inn , simply rooms over a restaurant, That said, the room was spacious, clean and comfortable. And the staff kind and helpful. The unfortunate experience was the price, $491 for a room that sold for $161 plus tax the next night, more in line with the facility. Only a room.

The location is prime, practically next door to the Avon Theater. Our room was large with a beautiful updated bathroom… a good elevator which is nice for an older Victorian building and not always the case.
The restaurant is quaint and had a nice choice for their breakfast/brunch menu and it was well prepared.

I would recommend this place.

- Great staff.

- Rooms where clean and well maintained
- Bathrooms very immaculate, not a single speck of grime to be found, also very modern
- Great central location, half a block from the Avon theatre

- No parking on site, there is parallel municipal street parking but at a cost, free municipal public parking lot a few blocks away, the walk is quite nice as you get to walk through the neighborhood.

Fosters is our \"go to\" place to stay when we visit Stratford for the shows at the Festival. It is located practically right next door to two of the four theaters and is well within walking distance to the other two. Craig Foster recently sold the hotel he had founded well over 20 years ago (I'm guessing) and it is now managed by Mercers, another fine establishment in Stratford. Over the past year Mercers has been beautifully redoing the rooms and upgrading the bathrooms! The restaurant at Fosters is very, very nice and serves 4 star meals!

Overall the stay was great. Staff is wonderful and the restaurant bar is our favorite stop for drinks before heading off to plays. We have used this property before and the location can not be beaten. My only issue is there was a hold for the full stay amount plus an additional $200 for room charges. Then on check out we were charged the room rate amount. It has now been 7+ days and the fairly large hold is still pending. It is frustrating to have to review and confirm the amount is still not cleared off the card, but the charge was immediate.

I have stayed at Foster's many times in the past and was concerned that the renovations might have interfered with the charm. However the big difference was a majorly upgraded bathroom and a few cleaner lines. The antiques and comfy furniture (including the bed) remained. Improvements all around. The staff didn't need any renovation, they were as helpful and friendly as they've always been. I'm returning to the festival twice more during the summer and am very glad I booked into Foster's, I'm eager to return.

Our room was clean and very pleasant. Renovations have been done on the rooms since I last stayed at Foster's Inn. The washroom has been completely renovated with beautiful tiling on the floor and shower stall. Our room had a sky light that provided lots of natural light in the space. The hotel staff were friendly and helpful. I have stayed at a number of hotels in Stratford and I highly recommend Fosters.

Staff at check-in were very friendly. Room was fine, spacious. Bed was less than great, but did the trick for one night. The location is great, near so many interesting places to explore.
The biggest disappointment was the shower. The hot water lasted less than two minutes and for the remaining time was ice cold. Tried at two different times of the day, hoping that it might have been a fluke the first time, but the results were the same. I hope that they resolve this in the future, for the sake of future quests. I know, for myself, a hot (or even warm) shower is appreciated at the end of a long day.
I will not be considering this location again in the future.

Keeping in mind this is a boutique hotel, which to us means different or unique, this hotel is excellent. You enter into the restaurant which also is the front desk, so we had to wait for service and it was of course busy. That said, it's a unique experience. The room was great, clean, and comfortable. Easy access, and the area around the hotel has many food options and is walkable to many places in Stratford. Would highly recommend this as a nice little place, that is not your typical hotel, to stay.

The room was okay nothing special and smelled slightly of cigarettes. The bathroom had tiny ants.

We had dinner at the inn and we were not impressed at all . First, they had a daily dinner special and the Yorkshire pudding wasn't cooked properly and the said dessert wasn't available so I got an alternative and I was charged more than the 59 dollars. When we addressed the issues no compensation at all. I was told they were not expecting many orders for the special, my god then don't offer it! The food also was drowned in salt! I definitely will not recommend or go back to the inn or the restaurant.

The staff were lovely and check-in seamless. Our room was in the third floor. The hallway smelled like cigarette smoke. The room needed to be aired out. The odouts were unpleasant. There were small ants on the bathroom sink/vanity from the night we checked in, killed them and next morning. There was someone else's toothpaste on the wall to the left of the vanity. The bed was terribly uncomfortable. Would not recommend.

Room was very clean. Front desk staff member (a lovely New Zealander) was super helpful. We had a great stay, an amazing dinner at Mercer's and a wonderful breakfast.

Excellent dinner menu with very friendly and helpful staff. Breakfast was not included, just a free mimosa, coffee or juice. The fact that it’s steps away from the theatre was a bonus.

Loved the room as it was spacious, quiet and the bed was very comfortable. Had dinner on the patio - great wine selection and the food was delicious. Staff are very friendly, helpful and efficient. I would highly recommend having breakfast, lunch or dinner there as well as an overnight stay. Parking is close and it is right down the street from the Avon Theatre.

The welcome was great, the staff were very helpful. There is no on site parking but we were given directions to a nearby free municipal lot. We got dinner reservations at the Inn and we had a lovely meal. The hotel is old but clean and next door to the Avon Theatre so great walkability. Close to the heart of the action!

Great overnight stay one minute from the Avon Theatre. Nice to be able to walk around town. Staff are all warm, friendly, professional and very helpful. Rooms are large, high ceilings, clean - mattresses on beds are on the firm side. Dinner in the restaurant was excellent - steaks and wine by the glass are fabulous, apps, salads delicious. A great stay. Would recommend. Thank you!

All the staff, including reception, restaurant and bar were friendly and helpful. The room was very clean and I had no hesitation in leaving a tip for the cleaners. The Queen bed was lovely. The sofa bed less so. The meals in the restaurant were delicious.

I would like to start by saying that the room was very nice clean and quiet. There was a half bottle of water left in the fridge which I’m assuming was from another guest. The people doing the check in and out were very pleasant and welcoming. We also had a very nice breakfast the next day. The disappointing part of our visit was dinner in the restaurant our first night. I made reservations and were seated on time. I had indicated that it was our anniversary (30th) and I did see it on the notes for the reservation. Our waiter seemed very flustered and not particularly focused. The main issues I had with dinner were the lack of attention from the waiter, and A very disappointing main course. I ordered the pork porterhouse and when it came it was not what I expected. It was very thin and dry, my wife wanted to to send it back but I don’t like doing things like that so I eat it. A couple next to us ordered the same meal and when the pork came it was what you would expect (thick and juicy) as well they were given steak knives to cut the meat. When our waiter returned we pointed out that the people next to us received a much better quality meal then we did. His response was that he just serves the food they send out from the kitchen and he doesn’t control the quality. He said he would let the itches know but I’m pretty sure he never did. There was also no recognition of our anniversary which was disappointing. this wasn’t our 1st visit but will be our last.
