We have never found an hotel we like better anywhere in the world that we like as much as this one. We've known Jennifer Birmingham as customers for years through her extraordinary b&b. She spent years designing this according to her vision. She spent another approx 5 years getting it approved. When you enter the lobby ti feels like a traditional luxury lobby. It's quiet. There are comfortable chairs everywhere to sit, sip a drink or talk. The ceilings everywhere are high. The colors are neutral but not bland. There are all kinds of things in various hallways and landing, you'd have to see for yourself. The rooms are very large. Who'd need a suite? The ceilings approx 10 - 12 ft. The bathroom is my dream. spacious and comfortable. The texture of the tiles on the floor are comfortable to my feet. The restaurant is EXCELLENT. I had a crispy perch that was wonderful. The breakfast omelette was first class, They make their own jams and honey. The patio you'd really like to eat on. Quiet and overlooking some fields. No traffic. I said to my wife isn't it wonderful to stay at a place we really like? I it's small, 25 rooms. The service is fast up close and personal. It looks large because of the large rooms. It looks old fashioned but it is entirely up to date.Free parking. When we go to Stratford Ontario this is the ONLY place we'd stay at. It's was within walking distance to the Festival Theater.
To our minds better than the modern luxury hotels.

This hotel is just spectacular and outstanding. Staff were always kind and attentive. The breakfast (included) alone is worth the stay. Very convenient location. Rooms were comfortable and quiet. Nice pool with option of a resistance current...never seen that before! Met and exceeded our expectations.

The management and staff at the Bruce Hotel were very professional and very courteous. They are 10+ and go a mile to make your suite perfect, to make sure you enjoy your stay and memorable; everything from making sure you get water bottles or bring you coffee or cookies to your room, etc. The Bruce Hotel is short walk to the Stratford Festival Theatre or the new Tom Patterson Theatre, and the Stratford Festival Park and walking trails by the Avon River, etc. They provide information about Stratford, local events and maps about Stratford. The management and staff are well trained and very informed and knowledgeable.

Also the Bruce Hotel Restaurant is excellent. Every dinner appetizers, entrees and desserts are delicious. We stayed for 5 days at the Bruce Hotel and its a gem, we've travelled around the world and the Bruce Hotel and Bruce Hotel Restaurant is a 5-star restaurant and 5-star hotel.

We'll be back.
