Toronto follow up question

[bokolo]

Thanks for all your great suggestions for fun things to do in Toronto. Do you have a recommendations for hotels?

 

[crashbb]

Where do you want to be?
What sort of price range?
What sort of amenities are important?

 

[bokolo]

Location: Not sure...maybe the downtown area, close to subway. Or any rec. you may have

Price: Under $200 per night Canadian

Amenities: regular amenities as far as rooms (we don't need anything fancy...but def CLEAN), pool would be nice, but not necessary. We will be busy and don't plan to spend much time in the room.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

I would go on priceline. THat is what we do everytime we have a girl night out in downtown TO. Or for an airport stay. I have gotten the DT Marriott, & Hilton for as cheap as $55 US/ night.
Any of the 3* or 3 1/2* are good

I always stay at the Royal York, it's in a great spot.

Oh we stayed there too, and it was a great stay! Got a deal for $130/ night.
Also I forgot to mention to sign up for travelzoo.com for good deals on hotels, there is a Canadian, and a American version so check both.

We usually stay at the Royal York, which is now part of the Fairmont chain--very close to Union Station, a main subway hub. We have stayed at the Delta Chelsea Inn and Le Meridien King Edward--both are quite good and within a quick walk of the subway. The Delta Chelsea Inn is very child-friendly, has a big pool and a 4- story heated waterslide. (The Delta is just down the street from Barberian's, a wonderful old-style steakhouse--go there if you want to splurge and love big steaks). Also stayed at the Toronto Downtown Marriott Eaton Centre, which is connected the the Eaton Centre mall--and a subway station. I've also heard good things about the Novotel Toronto Centre, which looking at the map, appears to be a bit of a hike (5-10 min.?) to the closest subway.
