Holiday Inn Toronto Downtown Centre by IHG

8/10 Good

"Hôtel bien situé. Les employés sympathiques et serviables. Merci"

Great Canadian Casino Resort Toronto

8/10 Good

"Internet speed need improvement for such a big hotel ! Also, there should be no parties at the woodbine racetrack side facing rooms on the race track ! Loud music and base was way too loud for the hotel rooms where we stayed !! Parties and extreme loud music should be organized way down further away from the hotel rooms so it wont be that annoying ! Also hotel underground parking should have better signage to lead you there ! Also, i would advise dedicating a parking for the hotel that is separate than the theatre ! The day there is a show, its impossible to find parking close to the hotel door !"

Residence and Conference Centre – Toronto

8/10 Good

"Very bare bones accommodation. Fridge, stove, microwave. No utensils, no cups, glasses of any kind. Each room overhead light is quite obnoxious. Dimmers would help a lot as there are no lamps. Towels etc were supplied, but the bath had no towel racks. Hooks are on the back of each door. My room directly face a major construction project. Super noisy. No complementary coffee maker coffee tea or anything. Beds are comfortable, no housekeeping. It's students residences converted into make shift hotel rooms from May to the end of August. Some students still here. The weekend was noisy till about midnight. On another night I could hear people in the hallway talking. I don't believe they were trying to be loud. Thens soundproofing is simply poor. Parking is free but not directly attached to the hotel. Student convenience store is open till 11 pm. A Subway is there for subs. There is laundry you have to buy a money card in order to use it. Windows don't open wide enough to get good airflow. No frills accommodation, but was decent enough for my needs. I would stay here again. But next time I'd prepare to bring dishes cutlery, cups drinking glasses, a hair dryer. Lamps. I hope this helps. I know it may sound negative. Its not bad, but clear your mind of assumptions of going to a more conventional hotel."

Toronto Don Valley Hotel and Suites

10/10 Excellent

"We went to the poolside bar for a “quick” supper, where our order was promptly taken , but then we waited for an hour before the food was ready to be brought to the table!The waiter, who was also the bartender, was very busy doing both jobs, but took time to speak to all tables to apologize for the long wait for food. He said the kitchen was very busy, but if that was the problem , perhaps more kitchen staff or a larger kitchen would help?"

The Westin Harbour Castle, Toronto

8/10 Good

"I was there working a convention. The AC situation in the convention part of the hotel was not great. I understand that Toronto was/is in the middle of extraordinary heat, but the temperatures inside were almost intolerable. There was obvious mold (or black dust of some sort) in the downstairs theater. The hotel room was perfectly fine. Lots of places to charge electronics and the temperature in the room was fine. However, the room doors are not like other hotels where they slam shut behind you - you had to make sure they closed and we came back to the room one afternoon after housekeeping had been there and our door was open. Luckily nothing was stolen but still, be mindful and make sure you shut the door behind you. The restaurant was great and a fun environment and the hotel is in an amazing central location!"
