Top Central Waterfront Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn Toronto Downtown Centre by IHG

6/10 Okay

"Staff was great, easy check in and out. Very small room and only one large towel for almost $400 a night."

Sheraton Centre Toronto Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Honestly, the staff were just absolutely amazing. The lobby level is beautiful and spacious, rooms are relatively standard, but clean. Gym and pool area also quite nice. I was there for a conference and spent most of my day two floors below the lobby - but the light coming in from above was helpful. The restaurant provided a special menu for my conference group that was very tasty. Toiletries provided in the bathroom smelled nice and were actually good quality. Again, staff were incredibly friendly and helpful."

Fairmont Royal York

6/10 Okay

"Some rooms are quite dated. I had to move rooms as there was the lingering smell of stale cigarette smoke coming from the in-room HVAC. Was upgraded to another newer room, but the beds were not comfortable. I travel a lot of for business and have stayed at many fairmont hotels, most recently Chateau Laurier in Ottawa which was better than this in service and comfort. Maybe I just had bad luck."

Great Canadian Casino Resort Toronto

6/10 Okay

"We chose the hotel not only for its casino, but also to be relatively close to Rogers Stadium for the Bruno Mars concert. The staff at the Reception desk were probably the most unfriendly I have ever encountered at a hotel. Upon arrival I was not welcomed with “Welcome to the Great Canadian Casino…”, especially as a first time guest. The first thing the associate said to me in a very low voice was to ask me for my ID. Mo hello. After my 3 night stay and checking out there was no “Thank you for staying with is I hope your stay was good…”. Mo conversation at all about my time at the hotel. This may sound petty but these little things matter to me as someone who travels quite a bit across North America. For me it makes a difference on whether I will return in the future."
