This is a truly unique and wonderful hotel. I highly recommend it. It is not far from the downtown core and the parks where most of the festivals happen.

There is a ton of parking available and its included which is great. The breakfast was much better than expected for something included. We would love to go back for dinner as the food looked incredible.

The staff was super friendly and helpful. Do not hesitate to book here its worth every penny.

I had some expectations coming to the in. And found the property to be beautiful and well-maintained. I still find it puzzling when a big room has a double or queen bed and not a king.

My experience with their food was sub-par. I did not have a full dinner so I can not speak to their full menu. I ordered room service of focaccia bread which had whipped butter, and oil and balsamic vinegar. The focaccia was seriously over baked and most of it was inedible. I was very disappointed and although it was just a snack (appetizer), I could only eat about 1/4 of it. For the complimentary breakfast, the same baker seemed to be involved baking the croissants. The were over baked and tough to chew on the bottom. The French toast suffered a similar fate. The bacon was excellently done. I had been told they had the best chef in all of London. I was very disappointed.

We had a few days in town as a couple, and really enjoyed our time at the hotel. We were met with a lovely welcome at reception. Our room was spacious, the beds were so comfortable, and the sheets and pillows were clearly very good quality. The restaurant was very nicely appointed, the wait staff very professional and friendly (thank you Sue, we really felt cared for), and, the food was delicious. The buffet breakfast was hot, flavourful, and fresh. We liked having the Nespresso in the room, and really appreciated that we could also get decaf pucks for it too. The building is filled with beautiful antiques, historic decor, and lots of comfortable nooks and crannies. We did not use the spa, as we were also visiting family, but if it is anything like the rest of the place, it will be beautiful and well run. A great place if you want something different from the usual travellers hotels. Oh, should mention, the area surrounding is very walkable, and there is a nice little village about 1k walk away (.6 of a mile). Parking is plentiful.

The Idlewyld Inn is a lovely weekend getaway. The house has a historical appeal and is very clean. The staff are great, and the breakfast is exceptional. The only issue I found is that neither of the windows in the room properly blocked out the outside light, making it a bit difficult to sleep.

Quaint, clean property with easy parking, and cozy, wood-paneled dining room. We had dinner on the earlier side (drinks, salad, entrees all outstanding with great service to match) and took a scenic evening stroll by Thames Parkway. Ended the night with a movie on Netflix (included), and the next morning enjoyed a lovely brunch spread of fresh fruit, pastries, smoked salmon, bacon, eggs, and potatoes. Did not have time to try the spa services, so can't comment there, but maybe next time. Would definitely stay here again!

The room was large with an exceptional separate washroom/shower area. The pillows were light and high quality. Bed was large and comfortable. The view was toward the rear yard and residences around. Lovely homes around and about which we walked through for hours. Historical plaques abound in the town of Wortley. Historical homes all around, most maintained very well.

This vintage facility has been around since the 1800s. We truly enjoyed a relaxing stay there to revel in a piece of Canadian history. Complementary breakfast on the outdoor front veranda was a delight. Some of the building is tastefully set with antiques and the rooms are upgraded with newer decor.
Would stay again especially due to the friendly helpful staff.

Elegance of the past, made real!

The Idlewyld Hotel is a charming venture if one is looking for something different from the sterile look and feeling of more the contemporary hotel. Elegance of an era now past is everywhere but it is amplified by an excellent, friendly staff; this best describes your first and lasting impression. If you are in need of a quiet time away, then look no further because, not only was the stay much more than we expected, the adventure will be memorable.

This venue has been on my bucket list for a while so when I had a chance to come to London for a friends' wedding, I took the opportunity to stay at this beautiful Inn. The staff were welcoming and very helpful. The room was very comfortable for our 3 day stay. Parking was not a problem. The buffet breakfast was included with our stay. The items were fresh, but there was no change in the breakfast offerings each day. I would have like to see some hot cereals and/or waffles etc. Overall my husband and I had a relaxing stay and would recommend this venue to couples looking for a quiet, relaxing stay, away from the downtown area. I highly recommend the Relaxation Massage - this was definitely worth it.

Beautiful Hotel

Came to London for my wife’s birthday and this place is fantastic! It was clean and the rooms were spacious. The courtyard was beautiful and relaxing. The breakfast was the best I’ve ever had at any hotel I’ve ever stayed at! (I stay at 30-40 hotels a year). I’m so glad I booked this stay. Loved every minute of it. Wish we would have checked out the spa but maybe next time. I also want to say, the neighborhood it’s located in is great! We went for a walk and it is definitely a safe area. Lots of others were on nightly walks as well.
