Good hotel when visiting downtown Toronto

Well placed for visits to most of the city centre attractions like the CN tower and the St. Lawrence market. The front desk staff were all very helpful and efficient. Breakfast is minimal but adequate. No other meals are served on site but there are restaurants nearby including an excellent Italian just across the road. There is a large supermarket six minutes walk away just across the road from the St. Lawrence Market - which came in handy. Limited snacks and drinks can also be purchased from hotel reception and can be delivered to your room by a robot called Marley! Overall, a good hotel. Read less

Hotel fine but skip the breakfast

Hotel was in a decent location and the rooms were clean and tidy. Good shower with clean towels. Friendly staff. Only let down was the chaotic breakfast. We ended up going out for breakfast everyday as there was nowhere to sit to eat, even at the earlier breakfast times there were so many people it was difficult to get around to find items, not much choice unless you want mainly sweet cakes etc and there were the most awful plastic cutlery and cardboard plates. People just sat around at the tables and leaving it untidy and dirty Just a horrible setting and experience. We went to the sunset grill every day instead, brilliant choice of food. Read less

Wonderful staff

I booked in here as there was a good deal through a hotel booking website, although because I booked and paid that way, I am not sure they will add my stay to my loyalty points with IHG. I arrived a little early, about 2 pm. But fortunately there was a room ready for me. The receptionist was very warm and welcoming. He gave me some helpful information about the area and the hotel. I was also allowed a late check out, for which I was quite grateful as my plane was early evening. My room was on the 11th floor and from the window I could see the square outside the hotel. There were a few tents in the square indicating a local homeless population and when I left the hotel later, there was a man shooting up on some steps at the side of the hotel. I guess this could happen anywhere in downtown Toronto. There was also noise from sirens most evenings, again every hotel downtown will be similarly affected. Every morning, although I was on the 11th floor I was woken by cooking smells from the breakfast kitchen on the ground floor. This suggests that all the air is being circulated through the system that is used by the extractor in the bathroom and is definitely a design flaw in the hotel. My room had a coffee maker, fridge, microwave, iron, safe and hairdryer. But no kettle, and unfortunately they did not provide them either. However there was a coffee station on the ground floor with hot water available and I could use the microwave to boil water for tea. There was a desk under the television but again, as with all the hotels I have stayed in in Canada, no dressing table and not particularly good lighting in the bathroom either. As well as the chair at the desk, there was also a very comfortable armchair with a small side table and footstool. There was also a guest laundry room on the 4th floor, with a single washer and dryer costing $2 each. My room included breakfast which was OK, a buffet with some hot food, I mostly had cereal and toast. They used compostable plastic cutlery but it was fairly ineffective in cutting up anything, not sure why they used this, nor why they used paper plates. I did have crispy bacon with pancakes and maple syrup one morning and it was good. There was also a fridge with yoghurts, cream cheese and small cartons of milk. Across the square from the hotel and through a walkway was the Metro supermarket. The streetcars 504 also ran from across the square so the location is very good. And it is two blocks from the Saint Lawrence Farmers Market which was excellent. The main asset of this hotel seems to be the staff who were all unfailingly helpful and pleasant. Read less

Don't think twice. Just book and enjoy!

Our 3-night stay was great! Clean room and bathroom (daily cleaning and towels change), highly comfy bed and linens (they simply hug you lol), heating, fridge. Ask for a high-floor room to have a great view, especially at night (we stayed on the 12th floor). Very friendly staff. Luggage storage after checkout. Above-average continental-style breakfast with a good variety. Great location, walking-distance to public transportation (street cars, buses and subway (metro)), stores, and restaurants (visit Cafe Oro di Napoli a few steps from the hotel). That was definitely the best choice Read less
