Arden Park Hotel or Festival Inn (I got married there) are good. Pricey, but everything in Stratford is pretty much. Especially if its Festival Season.

Those are the only ones I know of off the top of my head.

With the festival on, your gonna have a hardtime getting a rooom there... Woodstock isnt too far away, KW isnt too far either...

You could always camp at Wildwood too its a conservation area outside of Stratford... we camped there last year for the weekend and had a really good time... drank alot of beer, listened to music and chilled out...


BTW.. i just checked both those links, and your gonna be paying $150+ / night for a room... OUCH...

There is a little motel right donw the road form thwre the concert is gonna be.. i cant rember the name though.. its Shaw Inn, or Swan Motel or something, looks kinda shady, but might be a good place to party in.

KW has all the hotels, and Woodstock has Super 8 and Quality Inn.. and is about a 30 minute drive to the concert.

Thanks for the input crazykid. My girlfriend is on the case and I'll post what she finds out.

i had called the swan motel ( 271-6376)a few weeks ago - before official announcement and they only had 4-5 rooms available because of the festival season...its not the taj mahal but its the closest place to the concert site. There are some places downtown ...fosters inn ( craig 271-1119), the queens inn (jay 271-1400), Bentleys (271-1121), the parlour (271-2722)
