One King West Hotel & Residence
Property itself was good but they sure do know how to charge. They charged a 2026 major event tax on top of an accommodation tax. Its April and the event is in June!! They even charged us $30 for an early check in. Stayed at a competitor hotel last month and didn't pay any of the above fees even ...

Cambridge Suites Toronto
The room was clean. The staff was friendly. It was a great location with a grocery store across the street and near a Tim Hortons and only a 15 minute walk to the sea Tower. We would definitely stay here again.
