The hype
Travelers love the chic design and Yorkville location but are baffled by the lack of bathroom privacy and the missing pool.
W Toronto
$220-350 / natë
Rezervoni këtë nëse You want a high-energy Yorkville base where the lobby is a scene, the rooftop sushi is world-class, and you don't mind showering in a glass box.
Pse Njerëzit E Duan
- Prime location atop Bloor-Yonge subway station
- TONO by Akira Back (new rooftop Nikkei dining)
- Vibrant, social lobby culture that feels like a night out
Shikim i shpejtë: A flashy, design-forward party pad that prioritizes 'vibes' over privacy and silence.
Rishikuar nga @thomas.frias: I treated myself to a staycation at the W and it was exactly the reset I needed. The suite was massive with such a cool design, and the lobby bar energy is unmatched. Definitely grab a drink there before heading out!
Mysafiri Që Qëndroi Këtu Tha
Reality check
The 'Studio Suites' have no dividing doors between the bedroom and living area, and the motion-sensor under-bed lighting drives light sleepers insane.
- You are a solo traveler or a couple comfortable with full nudity
- You want to be steps from Yorkville shopping and the subway
- You care more about a great gym and rooftop bar than a quiet night's sleep
Pastrëti & Mirëmbajtje
8.5
- Housekeeping: Generally reliable daily service, though some reports of missed dust in corners.
- Bathroom hygiene: Sparkling glass and modern fixtures, but the open design means steam escapes easily.
- Maintenance: Mostly new, but reports of 'peeling wallpaper' and finicky touch-screen controls suggest some wear.
- Linens & towels: High quality, fresh, and typical W comfort.
- Odors & scents: Lobby smells of the signature W perfume; rooms are generally fresh unless previous guests smoked on the balcony.

FAQ & Këshilla të fshehura
Çdo gjë që do të dëshironit të dini para se të rezervoni
Is there a pool?
No. There is no pool at W Toronto, despite the brand's reputation for 'WET' decks.
How bad is the bathroom privacy?
Severe. Sinks are often in the open bedroom, and toilets/showers have glass doors that offer little visual or audio privacy.
Is breakfast included?
Only if you book a specific rate or have Marriott Bonvoy Platinum+ status; otherwise expect to pay ~$30-40 CAD per person.
Can I hear the subway?
Yes, on lower floors you might feel a faint rumble as the hotel sits directly atop Bloor-Yonge station.
Is it pet friendly?
Yes, very. But there is a hefty $150 CAD non-refundable fee per stay.
What happened to Skylight and Public School?
Skylight has been replaced by TONO (Nikkei cuisine). Public School is closed and currently being reimagined.

5 gjëra që duhet të dini përpara se të niseni
💡The 'Studio Suites' are just larger rooms with no wall separating the bed from the couch.
💡The weights in the gym only go up to 50lbs, which is light for a 'luxury' gym.
💡The elevators are 'smart' destination dispatch—you pick your floor outside, not inside.
💡There is a recording studio (Sound Suite) on site that you can actually book.
💡The 'courtyard view' is basically looking at the other side of the building, but it's the only way to get quiet.
