Jim and Marina are wonderfully people. Well travelled and well read, they are great fun to talk to. This was our 4th year staying at their B&B. The breakfast is always plentiful and tasty. Their home-made maple granola is a must try. The house is gorgeous with lots of artefacts that the hosts have collected over the years. The rooms... More

Jim and Marina did a wonderful job of making our stay relaxing, comfortable and enjoyable. We requested vegan breakfasts and they delivered!! - Delicious vegan waffles the first day and delectable vegan banana french toast the second day. Both meals also included lots of fresh fruit, juice, coconut yogurt and granola. Though we are not coffee drinkers, smelling the aroma... More

Jim is an exceptional host. Before our arrival, he emailed to advise us about construction that would have delayed our journey and suggested an alternative route. The room was very comfortable and the decor was pretty and befitting the historic house. Breakfast was very tasty and Marina made some sweet treats to accompany the meal. The granola was delicious as... More

I stayed at the Lilly Pad once again this July and had a super stay. Jim and Marina have a clean and comfortable home with lovely furnishings. My bed was very comfortable, and the breakfasts prepared by Marina are fabulous. Jim is a wonderful host, even meeting my train at the station. It is centrally located to theatres and other... More

Our two night stay at the Lilly Pad was delightful. The room was clean, lovely and comfortable; the service and breakfasts were outstanding. Jim is a friendly, helpful host, eager that his guests enjoy their B & B stay and their time in Stratford. The Lilly Pad is ideally situated for visiting the town center or any of the theaters....

If I could give this B and B a 6/5, I would. Marina and Jim are two of the friendliest hosts I have ever had the pleasure of staying with. The breakfasts at their B and B are homemade and wonderful. Jim provided wonderful conversation and service, while Marina cooked a fantastic omelet. The room I stayed in had a... More

The hosts, Jim and Marina are terrific. Location was close to downtown and all the sights. The breakfast was fabulous. Try their granola...made from scratch. Yummy. We stayed in The Rose Room and it was spacious and had plenty of storage and closet space. I loved that they had a fan in the room. The furnishings were quite lovely and... More

We recently decided to take in the Stratford Festival's West Side Story and looked for a nice B&B. Most in Stratford proper were quite expensive and certainly more expensive than the ones in neighbouring towns where we had stayed before. The Lilly Pad was a nice exception so we decided to book it. In walking distance of both the town... More

Lilly Pad B&B is still a fabulous place to stay. It's by far the most reasonably priced, our room as clean, comfortable, and beautifully furnished as in the past, the breakfasts still fantastic, and Marina and Jim still the warmest, most hospitable hosts imaginable.
