Note that The Westin Prince is no longer The Westin Prince, but rather the Pan Pacific Toronto…read more Even though, there are still several signs in the community that say "The Westin Prince" even though it is no longer a Westin property and no longer The Prince. Prior to about two years ago, I would always stay with family when I was traveling to Toronto. I then learned that the Pan Pacific (which my family calls the Old Prince) was only about five minutes from where many of my family members live. Since then, I've been staying there about 3-4 times a year, sometimes on my own and sometimes with my sister. I have found that the rooms, restaurant (Seasons), and common areas were comfortable while the staff were very helpful. I typically would get a king bed or two queens (if I was traveling with someone else), and often get an upgrade to a larger room, a balcony room, or even once for my birthday, a junior suite. There is typically an amenity dropped off (small package of three chocolates with two sparkling waters) along with daily water bottles. The beds are comfortable, and there are individual-sized shampoos and other amenities in the bathroom that get restocked as needed. While this Pan Pacific location doesn't offer complimentary breakfast for Titanium members, you can get a discount based on your status level at its restaurants. My only challenge in the rooms over my visits has been days where housekeeping is skipped for no particular reason or the blinds that sometimes fall down. Any time I have reported anything to the front desk, they have fixed it that day. The other amenities in the hotel have been useful. We often use the fitness center, only a short walk away, though there are a few machines that have been removed over the last two years though they haven't replaced them. There is also an outdoor pool, which we haven't used but have seen people using. On one occasion, we went for a walk along one of the trails, which didn't go that far. We always park a vehicle at the hotel, and as long as you have a picture of your license plate to show the staff at check-in, you can easily come in and out at your convenience for a daily rate of $20, I believe. There are also conference rooms downstairs though we haven't used them before. I used a status match and then stayed there once in order to earn a status with GHA Discovery inclusive of Pan Pacific Hotels. You can sign up with the GHA Discovery Silver status without a previous stay, and then after two visits or spending $1000 USD, you can upgrade your status to GHA Discovery Gold. The higher statuses are Platinum and Titanium. As a GHA DISCOVERY member, you'll earn up to 7% back in Discovery Dollars (D$) on every eligible purchase to be used on your next visit. Other perks for all tiers include complimentary internet, exclusive rates and offers, birthday treats, savings at spa outlets, and savings on dining bills (up to 20% off). Depending on status level, you can also get a local amenity at check-in, upgraded room experience, early check-in, late check-out, status sharing, priority room availability, and complimentary breakfast. I certainly recommend that someone in North York, Ontario looking for a hotel consider this as an option. It's certainly worth it! I also want to give recognition to Denise, Anas, and Pranav for always being so helpful.

With the crazy hotel rates that I had looked at, I took a different route. I had an early morning flight out to catch and wanted to stay closer to the airport. I went on Expedia to do a search and found Admiral Inn. It had good reviews and the price was right. I booked it online. I then checked in at around 9 pm on a Monday night. There was lots of parking at this hotel. There are a series of hotels around this area, with plenty of eateries and stores that I didn't have time to explore. I got a competent person at the front desk. He checked me in. There was a $200 deposit for a night's stay. I'm not sure if that's now a standard, but it was more than twice my hotel rate for the night. My credit card secured everything. This man wasn't feeling great. He admitted that to another guest. This guest and I got into the same elevator. Next to the elevator was the pool with a whirlpool. I wasn't here long enough to try either. I got a comfortable room. It had a mini fridge to keep my drinks cold. I also had brought food for breakfast and was thrilled that there was a microwave. Both worked well. There was no luggage rack. I used the chair next to the TV. It worked well, too. The floor was hardwood. It's easier to clean than carpet. I liked the toiletries that were in the bathroom. The shower was interesting. You got a shower head above and a hand wand. It also had three heads built into the wall, so you could get sprayed horizontally. I tried it. It was different. If you like showering options, this room is for you! The bed was comfortable. The pillows don't have a lot of support, so I doubled them up for my heavy head. There is free wifi. I got the password tacked on to my room card. I checked out at around 5:25 am. No one was at the front desk. It was perfect because it was too early to interact with any human. I'm hoping that the guy who wasn't feeling great was sleeping. I had a decent stay. You do get what you paid for. (70)

I liked the pool and that it was warm, only from the hot tub's water being pushed over the ledge. But, I don't mind the hot tub's flaw as it made the pool comfortable without me having to slowly step in shivering. * Microwave, mini-fridge, big mirror, coffee maker, AC, and a big window where I stared at the magnificent shingles.... Only thing I dislike is --why did the faucet fall off?

A bit on the pricier side, but it is walkable to so much stuff - St. Lawrence Market, Aroma coffee, Cecibar, etc. It also has its own restaurant in the lobby which is great for people like myself arriving late and tired and not wanting to go out but also not wanting to just go straight to the room. No parking available onsite but there's overnight parking at a garage 1 block away for $24CAD. I'd definitely stay here again because it's just such a cute spot in a great area - close to public transit as well. @azfitfoodfun

It's a little difficult to find when arriving for the first time, but after being there once, you'll have no trouble. The first thing you'll notice is the cute seating areas that are rather stylish. One night there was even live music. The check-in counter is at the bar of the attached restaurant and the staff was incredibly friendly during my stay. I wasn't in my room much, but while I was there it was small, yet cozy. They had all the amenities that I needed. There wasn't any outside noise that impacted my sleep and the bed was comfy. I did have to adjust the thermostat a few times as it got rather chilly and the table, chair, and TV area was a little janky. I'm not sure I would stay here again as I prefer a more spacious room, but if you're into small spaces and a more unique stay, this would definitely fit the bill.

When you walk into the hotel it feels royal, elegant, European, sleek, and luxurious. This hotel is also pretty famous as several movies have been filmed here including the show suits.

If you adjust your expectations accordingly, you'll have a great stay. Pros: -Unbeatable Location: Right across from Union Station with easy UP Express access and direct entry to the PATH. -Amenities: The gym is modern and Equinox-caliber. The pool, while a bit dated, offers a lovely sky view. --Room Comforts: Our renovated room was spacious and comfortable. The bathroom had excellent water pressure, plenty of hot water, and quality Le Labo Rose 31 toiletries. Wi-Fi Upgrade: They recently overhauled their Wi-Fi. All Accor members now get premium speeds (50+ Mbps), a huge jump from the previous speeds. -Dining: The lobby bar is a highlight for drinks and atmosphere, though it gets very busy during peak hours. Cons: -The "Zoo" Factor: Check-in can be chaotic. We beat the rush, but the line quickly grew to the concierge desk. -Noise: The walls are quite thin--I could clearly hear my neighbor's morning Katy Perry playlist! -The Mini-Bar Trap: There is no usable fridge; instead, they use an outdated weighted-sensor mini-bar. Don't touch anything unless you plan to buy it! -Navigation: It's a massive hotel, so be prepared for a long walk to the gym or pool depending on your wing. Overall, the staff is incredibly friendly and accommodating. I'd definitely stay here again for the convenience and charm.

After searching a bit, I settled on One King West as I've stayed here in the past but it's been quite a bit of time since I've been here. I arrived a little early and they allowed me to check in early. The staff were super friendly and the hotel was busy but not super swamped. I went through the glass doors to the elevators and headed up to my room. The cleaning staff were cleaning up some rooms but mine was fully done. I opened it up and I think it was smaller than the rooms I've stayed in previously. The main entrance was pretty open and led to a kitchenette. There was a washroom on the left and the bedroom on the right. The washroom was alright. It had a stand up shower with some bottles of body wash, shampoo and I can't remember if there was separate conditioner or not. The bedroom was decent size and had a decent size TV. The bed was pretty comfortable and didn't feel run down like some of the places I've stayed at recently. I went downstairs and noticed they had a cafe attached. I don't recall if they had this the last time I was here but I did grab some things from here the next day. I stayed here for all the things in the area so didn't really check out the restaurant or bar attached to the lobby. There seemed to be a lot of new restaurants and eateries in the area. When I returned that night to get a nights rest, the bed was comfortable but the mechanical stuff kept waking me as it was loud. It woke me a few times that night. I think it was just the room I was in as I don't recall this the last time I was here. Would give this place a try again but book earlier as I booked last minute and hopefully get a better room
