Upon entering the hotel, the lobby is gorgeous with 2 fireplaces. Staff was super friendly and the free breakfast was a bonus. The room was spotless and has a fireplace in the room. My wife and I loved this place and will definitely go back.

Great location, walking distance to downtown Woodstock and there’s a grocery store across the street. Parking was easy and we loved the fire pits in the back at night. Room was spacious but felt a bit dated and dirty. Other than that it was great for a fall weekend in Woodstock.

The Shire is close to all the shops downtown, and even has a market across the street. There’s a view slot a small river as well. Staff was very friendly. Negatives were a bathroom door that was very difficult to close properly, only half a roll of TP with no extras in the room, no tissues, etc… Very bare bones.
