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.

The housekeeper and the restaurant workers must smoke as the scent lingered and I have a smoke allergy but I loved the antiques and the vibe and it was very convenient

Liked that it was so close to town. Nice high ceilings making the room appear very spacious. Would liked it to have a bath tub, but otherwise, excellent stay.

Loved Foster's!!
I booked an extra day at the last minute. The staff (Laurie) worked with me to make the transition to a new room seamless. The service in the dining room (Scott) was excellent with respect to recommendations and knowledge of the menu.

Loved the ambience of this Inn. The food at the restaurant was cooked to perfection - our compliments to the chef!!
Ryan & Ted where very helpful suggesting places to dine, theatres to take in a performance, & providing a map of the areas' attractions.
The Inn was in the perfect location to walk most everything the theatre district has to offer.
My daughter & I had a wonder time, dispite the rainy weather. We'll be back!

Fosters Inn is a fantastic place to stay. The rates are fair and the rooms are spacious and clean. The restaurant on the ground floor has a good variety of dishes and they work with you if you have a special diet. We were concerned about noise from the restaurant, but there wasn’t any. Pretty much any attraction is within wallking distance.
We are definitely going back Stratford in acouple of weeks and we'll be staying here!
