Best Hotels in Toronto (2026)

Where you stay in Toronto shapes your trip. Downtown and the Financial District put you closest to Union Station, the CN Tower and the waterfront: the Fairmont Royal York, opened in 1929, is linked to the station by a tunnel, the Shangri-La sits on University Avenue, and the Omni King Edward on King Street East has welcomed guests since 1903. The Chelsea Hotel, the largest hotel in Canada, is a practical downtown base for families, with a waterslide and an adults-only pool.

Yorkville, around Bloor Street and Bay Street, suits luxury travellers; the Four Seasons there is a Forbes Five-Star hotel with a large spa. For more character, look west to Queen Street West, where The Drake Hotel and Gladstone House combine historic buildings with contemporary art, live music and event spaces, or east to Riverside, where The Broadview Hotel occupies a restored 1890s landmark with a rooftop restaurant overlooking the skyline and the Don River.
