Pse Njerëzit E Duan
- Unbeatable location steps from Yorkville shopping and U of T
- Indoor rooftop pool with a glass atrium and city views
- Signatures Restaurant's solid Canadian-international menu
Shikim i shpejtë: A former InterContinental that's trading on its killer address while the decor slowly ages out of its 'luxury' label.
Rishikuar nga @chinemelum: I spent my birthday weekend here and it was perfect. The 'Soft Girl' aesthetic is real—sleek decor, amazing city views, and the afternoon tea had lobster rolls! Plus, they let my friend set up a surprise in my room. 9/10, highly recommend.
Mysafiri Që Qëndroi Këtu Tha
Reality check
The 'luxury' vibe stops at the lobby; rooms can feel dated with scuffed furniture and older bathroom fixtures.
- You prioritize location over modern design trends
- You're visiting the University of Toronto or the ROM (literally across the street)
- You travel with pets (very dog-friendly policy)
