Top Canada Hotel Reviews

Chelsea Hotel, Toronto

10/10 Excellent

"LOVELY! GREAT VALUE! I paid $306CAD/night($218 US/night) for 5 nights over Labour Day weekend, which Canadians also celebrate. Not cheap, but still less than a nearby Marriot/Hilton/Sheraton and still a clean, modern, large hotel property that is centrally located. Friendly staff all around. PROs: -Clean, modern, elegant room, albeit a bit on the smaller side. -Bathroom felt more dated, but was still clean and pleasant. -Coffee Machine -Refrigerator -Medium sized LCD TV -Air conditioning -Safe downtown neighborhood with dozens of restaurants, cafes, bars, and eateries in walking distance. -Indoor Pool and Jacuzzi -Free water bottles provided -Great central location, almost every Lyft/Hopp ride I took was $10CAD or less to all the main attractions: CN Tower, Art Gallery Ontario, Ripley's Aquarium, Kensington Market, St. Lawrence Market, and more. CONs: -Rooms are a bit on the smaller side, but I don't spend much time in hotel rooms. -Paper cups only -Front desk can be short staffed at times. I would definitely stay here again."
