The hotel offers a mix of traditional and modern styles, with superbly appointed rooms but small in size without extra storage options. The service includes essential amenities, but there are some issues like early morning disturbances and additional charges for certain services. The location is ideal for exploring downtown Toronto, with excellent access to transportation and iconic landmarks like the CN Tower. The dining options are varied, but prices can be a bit high for some offerings. Overall, a well-maintained property with positive and negative aspects to consider.

The hotel room I stayed in was quite dated and lacked natural light, which made it feel dark and uninviting. I wished there was a mini fridge for storing drinks and snacks during my extended stay. The interior decor, with a mix of taupe velvet and tan fabrics, was not to my taste and seemed mismatched. On the bright side, the staff were attentive and made sure the room was spotless and the beds were super comfy.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of highs and lows. The room was ready and very comfortable, but my booked bedroom wasn't available despite the late check-in time. The service, although kind and helpful, seemed a bit overwhelmed by the formal atmosphere. The location was superb, offering easy access to transportation and attractions, but the dining experience fell short of expectations. Overall, a comfortable stay with a few hiccups.

The hotel was reasonably priced and of good size, but needed some upkeep. The rooms, though run down with stains and noise from outside, were spacious. The service was very friendly and helpful, available at all hours. The location, across Union Station with a view of the CN Tower, was superb but at the extreme high end for us. The dining experience was delicious with lots of choices. The facilities needed improvement.

The hotel was conveniently located just in front of Union Station, making it easy to get around. The rooms, although clean and nicely decorated for our anniversary, were a bit small for a family of 3. The staff was universally friendly and helpful, except for the confusion about needing a key to access desired floors in the elevators. The dining options were tasty but a bit hidden among the retail stores. Overall, a decent stay with some minor inconveniences.
