Anchorstay

Staying at Anchorstay was an absolute delight. The location is unbeatable—just a short walk from the subway, making it super easy to explore downtown Toronto and all the nearby attractions. The apartment itself was spotless, cozy, and well-maintained, with a comfortable bed that made for a restful night’s sleep. I especially appreciated the sense of safety and privacy—the kind of place you feel relaxed in, even when traveling solo. The only minor suggestion? Adding a bidet would be a nice upgrade. But honestly, that’s just a tiny detail in what was otherwise a fantastic experience. Clean, quiet, thoughtfully designed, and incredibly convenient. I’d definitely book again and recommend this gem to anyone visiting Toronto.

Four Seasons Hotel Toronto

Stayed for a few nights in the Deluxe Twin Room and was thoroughly impressed. The room was spacious, impeccably clean, and incredibly comfortable—perfect for relaxing after a busy day. The staff went above and beyond with their warm and attentive service, making the experience feel truly special. Location-wise, it's unbeatable—right in the heart of Yorkville, steps away from top restaurants, boutiques, and attractions. Public transit access is also excellent. The only downside? The price is on the higher end, but considering everything else, it’s worth every penny. One thing to note: there’s ongoing construction just below the lobby, so if you're sensitive to noise, I’d recommend requesting a higher floor. We stayed on the 15th floor and had zero disturbance—perfect for a peaceful night’s sleep. Overall, an exceptional stay that exceeded expectations. Will definitely be back.

1 Hotel Toronto

My entire stay was fantastic! The check-in process was seamless and effortless. I was pleasantly surprised with a room upgrade to one featuring a balcony—though the view wasn’t much to write home about (just a glass facade above, so you’re mostly looking up). Still, the space felt spacious and well-designed. The room itself was incredibly comfortable, especially the bed—perfect for a good night’s sleep. The hotel boasts heated floors, but despite leaving the feature on for about 30 minutes, I didn’t notice any difference in temperature. That said, it didn’t detract from the overall experience. The ambiance is modern and calming, staff were attentive without being intrusive, and the location makes exploring downtown Toronto easy—just a short walk or quick transit ride away. For the quality, comfort, and service, this place truly delivers. Definitely coming back.
