Bentley's Inn

Had everything we needed lovely rooms good food in restaurant

The room was spacious and clean. The bathroom was huge and newly renovated. The bedrooms were beautifully decorated with bright, vibrant colours.

Loved our stay at the Bentley Inn. Our room was clean, spacious, quiet, and walking distance to all the great dining, sights, and theatre. It will be my go to spot whenever I visit Stratford. Highly recommend.

This property is above a bar that closes at 2am. It was SO LOUD until 3:30am on a Friday night (even with ear plugs) that we were unable to sleep. We ended up leaving a day early because to enjoy theater, being rested really helps. Also, the bathroom, while in the same room, is up a steep flight of stairs from where the bed was located. If you need to get up in the middle of the night to use the restroom, this is a hazard for anyone who is not quite agile. The room was clean, but the noise was a real deal breaker.

Remarkably quiet goven over bar and on busy street. V kind and helpful staff. Convenient.

We generally stay here while we’re visiting the Shakespeare festival. It’s neat and clean and convenient.

The place was lovely. Staff was great. We got the manager's parking spot. Will stay again.

Very unique space. Large inviting and fun. Great decor, friendly staff. We will be back.

Key opened room but not hotel door or parking. Promised another one but didn’t get it till next day and it had the same problem. A lot of stairs up to room and in room and no help with bags. Hot in room and air conditioning didn’t cool it. No hotel staff. Bar and restaurant staff very busy and don’t have access to hotel resources

Great location for downtown .

Nice, clean, convenient. Unique, original rooms.

Perfect spot for an overnite stay during the festival.

All good except for lots of stairs both getting to and within the room. Also car had to be parked a few blocks away. Only a problem if, like me, you had an injured leg.

No complaints. Will book again

I liked that the loft sleeping area was separated from the kitchen and work desk downstairs. It was convenient to order food from the on-site restaurant below.

Not particularly accessible for those who need a cane or walker.

Many returns.

Somehow I didnt know these were loft rooms. 3 flights of stairs, a bit more than I can handle.

Perfect layout for a teen and adults. The loft provides privacy but you can still communicate easily.

The only less than amazing part about our stay was the parking was across the busy main road with the cross walks a bit far when carrying bags. Everything else was amazing - room, team, food at the restaurant, location!

ppointed loft. Good internet access. Very good restaurants below and nearby,

The rooms were amazing and modern.... Great place to stay

Our stay was extremely enjoyable. The only complaint we had was wth the housekeeping. The bathroom was not swept or wiped down during our entire stay (6 days). The bed linens were only changed once & only after we requested it. Coffee cups were not usually washed, just put in the sink. Perhaps housekeeping staff are inexperienced but better training would elevate that.

From check-in to checkout everything was perfect. Had lunch downstairs. Service was excellent, food was delicious. I have stayed at this property many times over the years, but the renovated rooms are really great.

Feather pillows kept us all up all night. Allergies. Would have been nice to know.

We did not like the lack of an elevator to the rooms, sloppy housekeeping, our loft room only had a bathroom on the upper floor, towels not refreshed without asking, even if left on the floor, no breakfast facilities, internet difficult/impossible to access. On the plus side, the room was interesting, large, well furnished and comfortable. Hotel staff were all very friendly and helpful

Have stayed here a few times, rooms are great as are the staff. The description matches what you get. Will stay here again

The staff were helpful and friendly. A buzzy place due to it’s bar/restaurant and central location. Not a lot of cleaning of my room went on during my five day stay. Well equipped room though.

There were several positive things about this hotel room (103): the location is great, right in the heart of downtown and convenient to everything. Despite the central location, the room was quiet, the bed comfortable and the room commodious. The kitchenette (fridge and microwave) was a nice touch. We knew the room would be upstairs from the bar/restaurant but the stairs are quite a steep hike; definitely not for anyone with mobility problems. Staff very graciously carried our bags upstairs. The two deal-breakers however, which would stop us from staying here again, were the location of the bathroom in the upstairs loft-very inconvenient in the middle of the night-and the skylight (no windows!) above the bed. It started getting light around 5 am and we had no choice but to wake up!

The stay was excellent except for the loud A/C. There should be directions in the room for how to turn it off for the night. The rooms are absolutely lovely!

Great location and friendly staff. Our room was nice and clean, unfortunately it was very noisy. The AC in the room was very effective but loud. When we turned it off we could hear all movements around us. People going up and down the stairs, doors opening and closing, toilets flushing. The walls are very thin.

Very nice!

Excellent location, not suitable for anyone with mobility issues. No elevator, two flights of stairs to get to rooms, plus another flight in room to get to bathroom in loft. Really enjoyed our stay overall because of proximity to so many fine restaurants, including the one at the inn.

Staff were very helpful and friendly. The decor was lovely - room design was impressive. Overall, I would definitely recommend this hotel and hope to visit it again

Great place to stay.

Great experience

The location is close to theatres, shopping and restaurants. Parking is provided across the road and is very convenient.

Very clean and comfortable! Also very quiet, which I was surprised at since it’s over a bar/restaurant. Check in was easy and fast and the staff were very friendly. I would definitely stay here again.

Great property, we loved our stay. My boyfriend struggled with how firm the mattress was but I thought it was comfortable. Very walkable location.

Always love staying at the Bentley! Friendly staff, unique and comfortable rooms and walking distance to many great restaurants, shopping and pubs.

Great place to stay, we had an absolutely amazing time! And the restaurant was fantastic!!

Check in was easy and friendly. Room was fine. No complaints. Did order from downstairs/takeout. Not room service. Had a steak sandwich. Awful. Only ate a quarter. Chewy and sloppy.

Would stay again! Loved the space in the rooms. Everyone was so nice and eager to help. We had the Friday night Prime Rib at the restaurant downstairs and it was fantastic too.

We've stayed here twice now and absolutely love it! It's conveniently located near everything, and the staff is fantastic.

The hotel rooms have been recently renovated and everything is stylish and new. The location is excellent. One can walk to coffee shops, stores and the theatres.

Great place right in the middle of entertaint area also everything you need on property

Amazing experience. Rooms were excellent. Proximity to downtown was perfect. The Bently's Bar / Restaurant was terrific as well.

Second stay at Bentleys, great spot

Always enjoy Stratford and Bentleys. The only complaint is the horrible mattress protector which feels like slippery plastic under the sheet and is very hot. It definitely interfered with our sleep quality. Otherwise, the room was great

Great space and price. Super clean, fun rooms with lots of space, main room with a king and then loft space with two other beds. Fantastic experience.

Loved the location, close to everything. Spacious room and very comfortable.

Overall property was great. Refurbished rooms, unique layout and design, great location and very convenient. Two downsides were staff availability during check-in check-out and hearing the music from the pub below until 2.30 a.m. Otherwise really enjoyed the stay.

Room was cold, it was a very large room approx. 28x24 with a loft with 2 single beds and the toilet/shower, trouble is to access the toilet at night you had to climb 13 steps, room also noisy, road traffic, airplanes taking off from a local airfield and even a flock of geese could be heard clearly, we had neighbours and you could hear the “snick” of the door lock, couldn’t hear the lively bar under the room though! Parking across the road, works but a bit inconvenient because of the very busy street outside

We loved our stay at Bentley’s! Our only complaint is that there was very little sound proofing between the walls.

Clean renovations. Need a more convenient lot for parking.

Very nice hotel, cozy, very clean and spacious.

The pool and fire puts

Our stay at Bentley's was made terrible by the noise created by a neighbouring room late into the night (3:00 am when someone finally yelled to shut them up). There was no one on the front desk to complain to so the noise continued unabated all night. Unacceptable. The bedding is awful. The bottom sheets aren't fitted (weird in itself) and too short. That results in scrunched up, uncomfortable sheets that come untucked if they're even tucked in in the first place.The duvet is far too warm for the season with no lightweight blanket to replace it. We had to request more milk from front desk as there was only one available in the fridge when we arrived. I will think twice about staying here again or recommending it to friends. I visit Stratford annually.

Every category was excellent Convenient to everything we could want and more in an a city with vibe!

Newly remodeled property. Clean room and easy access to the downtown area. Only drawback -- lots of stairs.

The staff was friendly and helpful. The Inn is perfectly located for convenience to the Festival Theaters.

Comfortable room above a great restaurant/pub. Right downtown in the very walkable Stratford.

Great location, spacious rooms and friendly staff. Only issue was the towels. They could be updated.

This place is a find! The suites are brand new and so comfortable, well appointed and complete with all bathroom and kitchenette conveniences. Bentleys bar and restaurant is right below, and you'd never know-- so airy and quiet. Walkable everywhere in Stratford, and safe indoor parking right across the street. We're coming back here--our new favorite place to stay!!

Acceptable clean accommodations. Long stairs up to room and stairs up to bedroom and bathroom. Had microwave, refrigerator and dishes. If you are prepared to go with the flow, this could work for you.

An amazing bi-loft, clean, spacious, and beautifully decorated. It’s conveniently located in the downtown area. You can walk anywhere. If you come by car, there is underground parking provided by the hotel. Comfortable beds and a lot of room. The layout of the loft is unique and there is everything you need. Having a restaurant and a bar downstairs is a huge bonus. The food is delicious and prices are excellent and much more affordable than in some other restaurants. Will definitely stay again.

Loved the loft-style room and the downtown location, walking distance to all of the theatres is a huge plus! Thre is no elevator so rooms are not Accessible.

Very nice staff! A quick alternative provided when a small issue arose! Was quickly solved. Great place would stay again!

This property has been beautifully renovated. The only thing lacking was a place to hang up clothes (perhaps a wall-mounted rack with a few hangers would suffice). Our room backed on to the parking lot and was extremely noisy at night once the bar downstairs closed. Many people stood around smoking and talking very loudly both nights we were there.

Brentley's is in a great location. Biggest problem: Our room was one of 5 that have a skylight instead of a window. There is no shade for the skylight. So in mid-June, the bright sun streaming in at 5:00 AM made it impossible to sleep. When I asked staff about that, they said they considered putting in a retractable shade, but decided not to because "kids might throw things on top of it." If you stay at Bentley's in the summer, be prepared to wake up VERY early!

Got told in the morning that we had to pay for the night before and today cause we got checked in after 12 pm yesterday

A great location in the heart of the city, walkable to theaters and shops. Modern room decor, nice quality furnishings and friendly staff. One big caveat: If you have difficulty with stairs, this is unfortunately not the place for you, because you need to use stairs to get to any room from the front or back doors of the building, AND you need to climb stairs to reach the bathroom inside your loft suite, even if you're sleeping in the downstairs bed. (At least that was the case for our room.) The public parking lot at the back of the building has several Chargepoint electric vehicle charging spots, though you need to pay for parking to use them (except on Sunday). The parking that's included with the room is across Ontario St. underground, and you are given a garage door clicker to get in and out (bring your room key to get into the pedestrian door from the street). If you are prone to "waking up with the sun", be aware that there are no room-darkening blinds to close on the large translucent window panels.

Far exceeded expectations! Busy, efficient staff managed to take time for kindness, chat whilst meeting needs of record crowd residents + pub. Best hospitality in my world, ever.

We stayed in room #104. King bed on main floor comfortable but if sleeping in king bed you must go up a flight of stairs to use the bathroom. Bathroom cleanliness needs to be improved. Base of toilet very dirty and the shower had mouldy dirty caulking. Hair dryer did not work and this room has no windows.

Very comfortable room and convenient dining for a late check in.

Bentley’s is so central to everything, it was great to be able to order from the restaurant and eat in the room.

A great place to stay, right in the heart of Stratford. Fab restaurant, too

Good value, excellent location, clean. Odd not to have windows, thankful for skylight. Music was a little loud with the live band on Saturday night. Would stay again.

Big room. Could use some updating. Fantastic location

A unique space but very spacious. I had a very comfortable stay

excellent location; very quiet rooms, even though upstairs from the bar; only drawback is quite a few stairs to climb to reach rooms, if you are not so young!

An excellent location in downtown Stratford. The Avon Theatre is a 3 min. walk and the Festival Theatre is about a 20 min. walk or 5 min. drive. The room was in excellent condition. Very clean and the bed was oh so comfortable. Would have taken it home had it fit in our SUV! The room is on two floors with the bathroom on the upper floor. If you don't mind climbing stairs, then I highly recommend this inn. We ate dinner here too. The service was awesome, the food was delicious. We will definitely stay here again.

A nicely done, good sized loft room with a king size double downstairs and two singles in the upper left room reached by stairs. Bathroom is upstairs. Downstairs has an electric fireplace, a table and kitchenette with microwave (but no stovetop) fridge sink coffee maker. Natural light provided by a skylight (no windows). Clean, quiet, terrific central location. Could use a clothes rod.

.

Very pleasant stay.

The room was fantastic. The location great. Wonderful to have underground parking. A little tedious going up and down stairs but we knew this before we came and it was worth the effort.

My wife and I first stayed at Bentley's Inn eleven years ago. At the time it seemed newly refurbished and was clean, modern and reasonably equipped. When we decided to return to Stratford this summer I found Bentley's on Orbitz and saw that it still had a high review score. We booked and looked forward to our stay. The reality was very disappointing. It appeared that the room had not been upgraded in the intervening eleven years. The carpets were stained throughout. The bathroom shower was caked with soap scum. Not only that, but the room was only superficially clean. The linens were of very poor quality. It was a very disappointing experience. If we had paid half the price we might have gotten our money's worth. As it was we felt ripped off. To be fair, the room is spacious, with two levels and sleeping accommodations for four. It is also quiet and in a very central location in Stratford. However, if we do return to Stratford we will look for alternate accomodations.

We were in 101. It might help if the staff turns/flips the bed because there's a hollow on the right side. Otherwise bed is firm. Check out lady was friendly; check in guy was brusque and abrupt, likely, because the front desk isn't his natural spot (more like the kitchen, based on his outfit). Been going to Bentleys for last 3 years when we're in Stratford, and generally satisfied.

We enjoyed the spacious rooms and cathedral ceiling of the loft we stayed in.

Room comfort and location excellent. Bathroom cleanliness not good I would do a deep clean remove calcium deposits glass and corners

I’ve never stayed at a hotel with carpets that needed cleaning so thoroughly. No coffee on Day 2. Overused towels. Nice people though

Love Bentleys, always stay here when we go to Stratford. Perfect location. Can walk to the shops, restaurants, the river, and all the theatres. Free parking. The restaurant has good food at reasonable prices. Rooms are large and comfortable with nice amenities. Only downfall is it can be a bit noisy.

Close to everything... easy walk to shopping, Stratford Festival theatre, etc. Very different two-level room. Well-appointed.

The rooms are always clean, and I love the layout. I often meet friends from out of town here, and everyone is comfortable. The staff are wonderful. Thanks for a great experience!

You have to carry your suitcase up a long flight of stairs to get to the rooms. The suite itself was lovely.

We liked everything about this hotel. An elevator would have made our stay easier

Convenient placement near the theatres.

My wife and i stayed one night as a romantic getaway. The property was conveniently located in the downtown core so we were within walking distance of everything including dinner.

Very clean and easy check in!
