The hype
Travelers love the location and the pool, but the 'dated' feel of unrenovated rooms is a common gripe.
Hilton Toronto
$200-350/ nuit
Réservez si You want a reliable downtown base with a killer indoor-outdoor pool and don't mind paying extra for the view.
Pourquoi les gens l'adorent
- The year-round heated indoor-outdoor pool is a rare downtown luxury
- South-facing rooms offer legitimate, unobstructed CN Tower views
- Direct access to the PATH network means you never have to step outside in winter
En bref : A solid, big-box corporate machine that's recently had a facelift, but watch out for the nickel-and-diming on fees.
Évalué par @beliizabeth: I stayed here solo and honestly, it was perfect. The location is super walkable, I felt totally safe coming back at night, and requesting a high floor gave me the most insane city views from bed. It's the ideal spot for a little 'me time' in the city.

- You're a swimmer—the pool is a genuine highlight
- You're attending a conference or need to be near the financial district
- You want a 'safe' choice with predictable standards and Ruth's Chris downstairs

Is the pool open in winter?
Yes, the pool is heated and has an indoor section that swims out to an outdoor terrace. It's open year-round.

Is there a resort fee?
Yes, expect a 'Daily Mandatory Charge' of around $20-30 CAD added to your bill, covering Wi-Fi and minor credits.
Conseils d'initiés

Use the PATH connection to get to the Eaton Centre without walking outside.

The 'Frenchy' bar in the lobby is actually a decent spot for a cocktail, unlike many hotel bars.

If you have a car, drop your bags at the entrance and then park yourself at the City Hall garage to save ~$25/night.
5 choses à savoir avant de partir
