I stayed at this hotel for two days. The staff was friendly. My only complaints would be the elevators did not always work, and a party they had over that weekend in the lobby area, it was very difficult to make it through the crowd and to the elevators. It was very odd that they would hold a party in... more

1. The Strathcona is right in the heart of Toronto. Everything was at hand 2. I am used to the European Hotel of "getting the arm in" for a safe deposit box. Therefore it was a great enhancement that the safe deposit box was pro bono 3. The staff and the concierge was more than helpful. Well done & thank... more

We stayed here over American Thanksgiving weekend. The hotel was in clean and conveniently located. Our check in when smooth. We made reservations through a third party company and had no issues with the front desk. There is no parking garage attached to the hotel and the front desk recommended a garage a couple of blocks away. They told us... more

The Strathcona is a reasonably priced hotel, convenient to Union Station, the subway etc. I stayed for one night in order to attend the opera, and the hotel was OK. Breakfast was available in a restaurant off the lobby, and some of the food was not hot (eg. sausages). However it was bitterly cold out and every building seemed to... more

The room, however, was very very small, which might be because of its location and lack of space, but it was livable. Since we spent most... more

This hotel is beautiful and a great deal if you can get the $69 CAN room I did. However, plan to park up to five blocks away, since this hotel does not have parking. The night I stayed there were many events and concerts going on downtown and all the parking garages in the vicinity were full. My boyfriend had... more

I too was deceived by their pictures on the web, our room was the size of a postage stamp, walls very thin, could plainly hear people in the other rooms, and in the halls. First room there was a family with a young baby, we could hear the crying as if it was in our room, I've had my kids,... more

A centrally located hotel (walking distance to CN Tower, Union Station etc.) which was great value. The room was small but it was clean and modern. more

If I had paid full price for this room, I would have been incredibly annoyed. The website shows beautiful, spacious, trendy rooms. Ours was very small and sparsely decorated, albeit clean. The staff was not especially helpful. They did nothing when I mentioned that we were disappointed in our room. They also charge you for wireless internet - an amenity... more
