Incredible stay at The Bruce in Stratford, Ontario
A classy hotel with incredible attention to detail and service. From the minute we walked onto the property every person who assisted us was friendly, knowledgeable and willing to help or make our stay special. Would highly recommend dinner at The Bruce Hotel as that did not disappoint. Food was delicious and service was excellent. We will definitely return to this hotel. Although it was a bit more expensive than some of the others in the area it was well worth it. They strive to make your occasion special and memorable.

A beautiful and elegant hotel, close to the theatre and park area. It’s short walk into town by the main road, or a beautiful walk by the water. Very friendly staff, who are eager to please. I got the impression that the staff are not only happy, but proud of the hotel. Our room was spacious and comfortable, with a beautiful bathroom. There is also an immaculate pool and hot tub with a spa-like feel.

I hesitate to rate it too highly or the secret will be out, because we just stepped into an oasis of perfect service, accommodation and fine dining. I'd forgotten that you don't need to travel into a big city to find this level of luxury - no request was an imposition and in fact, the staff went above and beyond to recognize our special occasion. The tasteful festive decor put us in a great mood for Christmas shopping - found something for everyone along the main street (I'd forgotten how fun it is to shop local and in person instead of from my keyboard). Hope to make this a regular destination!

We had the best experience in a long time. The Bruce has many subtle, thoughtful touches that have long been forgotten - courtesy, respectful, a cookie hotline, turn down service with slippers, subdued night lighting in the bathroom, excellent food, best butternut squash veloute ever, room was made up without asking, a wipe for my Ipad. a taxi service that picked us up at the front door of the theatre. Too many touches to remember. There was NOTHING I could think of that wasn't excellent.
