This is our top choice for an Ashland stay for Shakespeare festival. Rooms are fine, continental breakfast good, and nice to know the pool is available if you want to swim. Easy walkability to shops and dining and Lithia Park.

It started on a bad note when I had trouble finding my room. There are 3 buildings, separated by streets. The room numbers do not correspond to the floor number. I was in room 788, floor 2. Explain that.

The room was very clean and quiet. Loved having a balcony and watching the deer and turkeys. We were very close to all the venues and everything was a just a short walk. Shopping was close and the local restaurants were amazing. Am definitely coming back and plan on staying at the Bards Inn. Staff was amazing!

September 2025 stay

We love the Bard's Inn. It's so convenient for walking to the areas in Ashland that we like to visit. We had a mix up with one of our room reservations this time and the staff were very helpful in sorting it out. Our only concern was that we left our ipad behind when we left and it wasn't turned in to lost and found. We are still hoping it will be found.

Great except for the bed!

Everything was great except the bed was the WORST bed I've ever slept in! Room 792. It sagged in the middle and was uneven and lumpy. Felt like it was a REALLLLLY old bed. It was also squeaky.

The duvet cover was slippery material, so the duvet bunched up and ended on the floor after trying to pull it up. A/C blew Dow on our heads. Turned it off and opened the sliding door. Otherwise, it was clean and well-stocked.
