Overnight stay in Stratford

This was a great place for our overnight stay in Stratford. It was much nicer than staying in a hotel. The hosts were very welcoming and friendly. The room was very spacious and beautifully kept. It was very clean. The breakfast was very good.We were able to walk to the downtown area and were just a few minute walk from the Avon Theatre.We would definitely book the room again.

Excellent Stratford Stay

A comfortable and convenient B&B with excellent hosts and great breakfasts. The home and property are beautifully maintained and the hosts very friendly and helpful. Our only note is the tight flight of steps up to our room on the second floor.

We enjoyed staying at Hathaway. Host met us for early check-in. Very good breakfast. Comfortable room. Stairs could be difficult for some. Lovely gardens. Easy walk to downtown, not a far walk to Festival. Would consider staying again.

For my parents Anniversary my dad took my mom to Stratford for some shows, her favorite. They stayed at this B&B and both of them have been raving about it since they returned home. The family was so kind and wonderful to talk with. The home was immaculately kept. The family dog was a pleasure to have around. The owners thought of everything! A cute delicious chocolate dessert, from a local shop, awaited them in the bedroom’s refrigerator. Definitely a place they’d come back to. They thoroughly enjoyed their time there.

Lovely Experience, very walkable!

I decided to take my 17-year-old daughter on a little weekend getaway, her first bed and breakfast experience. The room is well-appointed and we felt well looked after by our hosts. The breakfasts were fresh and delish. We would definitely recommend folks stay there who are looking for a quality b&b experience. The location was an easy, flat 10-15 minute walk from the Avon Theatre and lots of restaurants and boutiques.
