The Best Western Plus Arden Park Hotel is located within a 10 or 15 minute stroll to the Stratford Festival Theatre. It has reasonable prices with comfortable rooms and a good restaurant. Staff are all very pleasant. Lots of parking on site. This is our hotel of choice when visiting Stratford.

Have been staying at the Arden any time we’re in Stratford for the last 15+ years, and it honestly feels like our second home at this point. The service, quality, and atmosphere are excellent, and the on site restaurant is one of the best in town.

Best Western Arden Park is a lovely place to stay. It is extremely clean, quite at night and the team is very helpful and friendly. The beds and pillow are very comfortable and rooms have everything you need for a comfortable stay. The internet is also very good.

Rooms & suites are great, roomy (including the bathrooms). Super amenities and services in the hotel. Staff is always efficient, friendly and helpful. Restaurant and staff are good, well-trained; and the food is reliably good. Present menu is great, accommodating most tastes and diets. It's also a wonderful choice of location for events, large or small.

M sister and I were visiting the Stratford Festival. We had a lovely room. A suite with two queen beds and a living room with kitchenette - fridge, microwave, coffee maker and a gas fireplace. And a big bathroom. Lots of room for the two of us. Excellent breakfasts in the restaurant. And excellent service from the hotel and restaurant staff. Will return!

We needed a hotel room for a night after visiting someone in the hospital. We did not have a reservation, but there was rooms available. The lady on the desk spent more time trying to sign us up for reward points. She did say the charge would go through the next day, it went through immediately, she did not tell us about the $100.00 incidental fee, not a problem but was not told. When we checked out, the the person on the front desk said the charges would be reversed in a couple of days, that was 7 days ago, 5 banking days and nothing. This is not acceptable, we will not stay there again. The hotel was fine, the staff need to be more professional or their accounting procedures need to be updated.

Dear goodmanpt; Thank you for your review. I am very sorry to hear of the confusion surrounding your check-in. I can assure you the pre-authorization will appear back on your statement, however it does take between 5-10 business days depending on your banking institution. Please do reach out if you have not seen it within 10 business days, and we would be happy to look further into it for you. Andrea Hayter General Manager

The room and service at this establishment is what you expect from a well run hotel. Our room had everything we would want or need and was quite comfortable. The hotel staff are friendly and competent. We are senior citizens and we could walk to the Festival Theatre in 10 minutes and to downtown Stratford in 30 minutes.

Staff without name tags Not informed about your policy to not include breakfast because you have a restaurant! The high cost ofa very, very limited 'breakfast buffet'. We ate breakfast at McDonalds!!! A hot tub "temporarily out of order" (inreresting/frustrating that our Thanksgiving Best Western Plus accommodation had the entire fitness centre "out of order").

Dear dcringer2023: Thank you for your review. I am sorry to hear of your disappointing experience during your recent stay. As we discussed, being a full service establishment we have a dining room that offers breakfast, lunch and dinner at an additional cost. I am sorry you did not feel the buffet was adequate, please note we do also offer a la carte options. I also apologize for any confusion surrounding the fitness area, it was not out of service, only the hot tub was due to unforeseen circumstances, however the pool and fitness areas remained operational.
