I recently stayed at The Swan; it was recommended by friends who are long-time guests there. As my trip was last minute and unplanned, I was fortunate to obtain a room. The owners, Peter and Colleen, were gracious and greeted me with the same warmth as if I were a valued friend. When they learned this was my first trip... More

My friend and I found the Swan Motel to be one of the cleanest rooms we had ever stayed in. The owners were VERY welcoming, and most helpful with tips, maps, and suggestions, as well as with our reservations--the personal touch is much better than with a big chain. The grounds seem lovely, even in the fall, but the rainy... More

A great place if you like to hear your neighbour's conversation through the paper thin walls. It was a very cold night with frost, but the heating was poor and the blanket provided little warmth. An extra blanket in the closet would be appreciated. While the place was clean, it needed a good airing. Quite over-priced.

This is not your average roadside motel. The rooms are the cleanest we have ever seen and very lovingly maintained. The air in the room was fresh with no hint of air freshener. We appreciated the no pets, no smoking policy. Landscaping on the grounds is wonderful (would be spectacular in the summer when leaves and blossoms are still out).... More

I stayed here for a recent showing of Camelot a the Festival Theatre. Knew I was only going to be sleeping here, and not spending much time on the property, and was with my mom, so convenience, cleanliness and quiet was the key this time around. This is definately an old style, L shaped "motel", with parking directly outside your... More

The owners are hands-on at The Swan. The facility is open during the festival season and they spend the winter upgrading the rooms. For a 45 year old building, the rooms are in excellent condition. In addition the grounds are well kept with chairs and tables spread among the trees and around the outdoor pool. The motel as on the... More

The Swan, on the outskirts of Stratford, is an old-fashioned, park-in-front-of-your-room motel. The type you'd rarely consider staying at in the USA. But in Stratford, this vintage motel with a soybean field in the back and a pool and beautiful garden in front, is more than acceptable. The spotless rooms are furnished with outdated but well-kept furniture and the forceful... More

Very convenient to town. Exceptionally clean. Rooms are basic but do provide a sink and vanity area outside of the toilet room, a coffee pot, and a small refrigerator. The shower had plenty of hot water with good pressure. Bed was a little too soft for my taste, but that is an individual preference. Grounds are beautifully maintained with a... More

Over the years the Swan has maintained it's friendliness, cleanliness, comfort, neat and tidy yard and gardens and so on and so on ! What a lovely, relaxing setting. Just a word of warning to potential first timers. Book early to avoid possible disappointment for we, as well as multitudes of others, feel that this property is the best in... More
