Brand New! Downtown Stratford: The Blowes Inn 3C: 2 Bedrooms
Welcome to Stratford’s newest stay! The Blowes Inn are beautifully designed, brand new apartments located in the heart of downtown, across from City Hall. Enjoy the perfect blend of modern comfort and heritage charm in a stunning 1875 building that’s been completely reimagined for today’s traveler. Be greeted by spacious, bright interiors with 12-foot ceilings, large windows, and plenty of natural light. Each suite features a fully equipped kitchen, in-suite washer and dryer, and stylish modern finishes.
Our suites are located within a beautifully restored heritage building above Blowes Cards & Gifts, our family-owned retail store that has been a local staple for over 75 years. We invite you to stop in and browse, many of the décor pieces throughout our suites come directly from the shop!
Also located in the building is Sculpt+Sweat Studio, a brand-new pilates studio offering visitor passes for guests looking to fit in a workout during their stay.
Please note: Our building is stair access only and does not have an elevator. If stairs are a concern, we recommend entering from the Erie Street parking lot, where the climb is divided into several shorter sections with landings between them. The 30 Wellington Street entrance consists of one continuous flight of stairs. Complimentary public parking is available nearby at the Cooper Lot (105 St. Patrick Street), just a short one-block walk from the building. Paid parking is located right off of the back of our building in the Erie Street parking lot (91 Erie Street).

An absolutely lovely apartment centrally located - it felt like a brand new, shiny penny. The two bedroom apartment on the top floor was a perfect place to reconnect with our adult son - the very large living room separates the two bedrooms. I wish I could move here! The kitchen was well appointed and well stocked although we didn't use it as so many good restaurants are close by. The only caveat is that you have to be able to walk up 3 flights of stairs, as there is no elevator, but trust me, it was well worth the climb. Our host, Julia, was VERY responsive and helpful. This is truly a gem and we hope to make it our home away from home when we visit Stratford.
