Casa Loma was very beautiful and my husband and I are glad we took the time to visit. We were there in the month of May and the gardens were fabulous - there were colorful flowers blooming everywhere. The grounds were beautiful and well-kept, the castle was majestic, and the interior had a lot of intricate detail. Tickets are about... more

We have had the pleasure of visiting Casa Loma a few times, and it really is a wonderful place. There is lots to see inside and out and if you like historical structures, it is worth a tour. In 1911 over three hundred men started construction on Casa Loma and worked for the next three years to complete it. The... more

After many years of anticipation we finally were able to attend Casa Loma and for their Haunted Castle event (geared for children 10 and under). I had been to the Castle many years ago as a young teen and thought it would be fun to go back with my family and 21 month old child. Sadly, it wasn't at all... more

Some people had tried to put us off going here but we are glad we went. It was a very very enjoyable visit. It is straightforward to get there using the public transport system so no need for a tour bus. Once inside there is a 20 min film about the man who built Casa Loma which was informative about... more

I've been to Casa Loma many times but this trip was different because they now show a short film that tells you the history of the castle where we learned much more than we knew. The castle was hot and stuffy and required a lot of walking, especially the steps. Bring bottled water, you'll need it! The gardens have always... more

I visited here as a child, and really wanted to go back. My memory must have been a little rusty about the place-lol. It is an okay place really. Needs work, and they seem to be doing just that. The gardens are lovely. The hidden passageways did not hold a candle to my childhood memory-lol. The tower views were BLOCKED... more

Glad I saw CL, it was worthwhile and the audio tour is FREE! The only downside was that we went there on a weekday in May while school was still in session, and there were a TON of kids running around - seriously, running and yelling to each other. At some points they were pushing adult patrons to get better... more

Casa Loma was delightful. I recommend the audio tour that explains what you are looking at. I would not recommend this on a hot day since it has just fans and not enough of them to make a difference. It gets very warm. Also, not something for children. I'm sure they would get bored quickly. If you take the subway... more

The day I went to the castle a young couple were justed married. They stopped by the gardens to have the wedding party photos taken and they could have not picked a better day for it. The grounds should not be missed. However, I would miss the tunnel that leads to stables, the size is of the tunnel is small... more

This is an interesting house combining Spanish and Jacobean/Elizabethan English influences. Don't expect a castle in the medieval sense and it's a good way to spend a few hours. Film show recommended to get the house's history. Pleasant gardens too. more
