Queen’s Cue Hotel

Nestled in the heart of downtown Stratford, Queen’s Cue reimagines the historic Queen’s Inn as a bespoke boutique hotel experience. Blending heritage charm with modern elegance, the transformation honors the site’s storied past while offering guests a serene and immersive retreat. Intimate gardens and hidden seating areas invite quiet reflection, with winding pathways revealing subtle tributes to the site’s legacy—such as a mini horseshoe game nodding to the original Queen’s Stable, interpretive plaques, and whimsical details that spark curiosity.

Seasonal activations bring the outdoor spaces to life: cozy fire pits and Muskoka chairs in winter, shaded alcoves perfect for iced drinks in summer. The landscape is designed not just as a passage, but as an extension of the guest experience. Street frontage features lush seasonal planters and flexible lounge seating that integrates seamlessly with sidewalk programming.

Along the side street, a modern interpretation of the English border garden showcases timeless blooms like roses, foxgloves, and lavender, thoughtfully paired with native Ontario species such as goldenrod, verbena, and anemone. Queen’s Cue offers a refined yet playful escape—where every corner tells a story and every moment feels curated.
