Stayed here while attending a conference. The room was adequate. They neglected to tell us the parking garage was under renovation as the hotel is becoming a Hilton. Had to park across the road in a public parking garage - this is downtown Toronto and no street parking available. Cost us 24.00 for over night and another 4.00 when we... More

I stayed last year on Canada Day with a couple friends. I loved the room. It was very nice and clean; the beds were nice and comfy. The lobby was gorgeous and the front desk was willing to hold our luggage since we checked in super early. The hotel is close to the subway system, only a couple blocks and... More

The hotel was pretty close to the Eaton Centre. The room was average and the carpet felt dirty but overall it was ok. We skipped their breakfast buffet and headed to Eggspectation by the Eaton Centre which had much better food for half the price. Next time we will probably skip this hotel and go somewhere closer to the waterfront.

Seems I've stayed at nearly every other hotel in downtown Toronto and this was a first for me. Good location right behind Nathan Phillips Square and City Hall. Near Eaton Centre, subway, Queen's Park, etc. The lobby looks like a modern building that someone decided to decorate in 70s decor; it's odd. Desk help was fine. Lots of conference attendees... More

This hotel proved to be a good base from which to explore the city. I stayed for five nights in total at a very reasonable price, quite a lot cheaper than most of the main hotels were priced at. When I arrived they explained that the hotel was in the process of changing hands to another chain and that a... More

We stayed at the The Metropolitan Hotel during our trip trough Canada and the U.S.A. in the summer of 2012. We arrived by car, and the Hotel had good parking spaces underneath the hotel. That's a big plus in a big city like Toronto. When checking in we got really dissapointed. The lady at the desk told us that all... More

Room was horribly run down. There was a huge hole under my sink. The fan sounded like a helicopter. Weird stains on the chair. My light didn't have a lampshade. The only thing nice about the room was the bed. When I complained to the front desk, I was basically told, sorry, but nothing I can do about it. I... More

I stayed here 2 nights while attending a conference in the city. The room was very old looking and needs some updating. The tv was very old and wallpaper was also pretty old. The bed was comfortable and the Crabtree and Evelyn bath products were a nice touch. The location is great, close to great restaurants and shopping. It is... More

I have had occasion to stay at other Metropolitan properties including those in Vancouver and the SoHo Metropolitan in Toronto. Recently The Metropolitan was the designated conference hotel for a meeting I was attending. I booked a Luxury King Room. The room was clean but I can echo other reviews in saying it was in dire need of a facelift.... More

A fairly nice older hotel which is located close to Chinatown. The hotel is converting to a Doubletree Hotel by Hilton, so I would expect a major facelift this year. The location was good and the bar staff were great. The front desk staff were not the friendliest which took me by surprise. The bell hop and concierge were excellent.... More
