Top University District Hotel Reviews

Chelsea Hotel, Toronto

10/10 Excellent

"I liked the updates they’ve done to the rooms. They are going in the right direction! Very modern! The breakfast was great as well! I see this hotel continuing to improve and it’s already in a stellar location downtown!"

Downtown East Hotel & Suites

10/10 Excellent

"So good to have laundry facilities! We didn’t need to use the dryer as the weather took care of I’m drying our clothes for us. Excellent to be SO close to Old City, the Lake, CN Tower, Blue Jays stadium and Sankofa Square and all the public transport we could need. Lots of opportunity to people watch on Jarvis; never a dull moment, EVER!"

Union Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Renovated hotel with contemporary vibe - provided a comfortable bed and effective air conditioning during a warm weather period in Toronto. The room was clean and relatively quiet, with several options for dimming lights in the room and a clever fold-down desk near the bed. There was a bit of recurring vehicle noise in the middle of the night, that sounded like large trucks picking up garbage - don't know where they were located though. After checkout, I appreciated the option to leave my luggage at the hotel desk for a few hours (free service), until it was time to go to airport. Hotel staff were friendly and helpful throughout my visit."

Crowne Plaza Toronto North York by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed here for a concert we were attending that was at Rogers Stadium. It was probably a 25 mins drive to that venue. This hotel is just outside the Toronto city limits, but still seems close to everything! Great view of the city skyline from our room also! The lobby smelled amazing upon entering and nice and open. The staff was super friendly and helped with any questions about the area we had. The room was clean and comfy as well. I would definitely recommend this hotel, and would stay again for sure!"
