“Good room, but flaws”

Reviewed 2 days ago NEW via mobile

This appears to be an older hotel, with a more European-sized room. The bed and pillows were good. The thermostat didn't always kick on the air when we wanted. The shower and toilet water pressure were weak, with a nearly malfunctioning valve to transfer water from faucet to shower head. The valet service was very poor; I waited an hour... More

“Decent hotel, great location ”

Reviewed 3 days ago NEW via mobile

The room we had was tiny, the noise from outside the room was nearly unbearable if we weren't so exhausted from our sightseeing during TIFF. We could hear every drop of water move through the pipes, whether from a toilet, sink, shower, etc. Ice machine on the a specific floor, cant remember which. So every night had to make a... More

The hotel is a block from Union Station and two blocks from Air Canada Center. The Strathcona is a clean modern hotel set in the style of a typical European hotel. The rooms are smaller but very smartly furnished. The room was very clean, service was excellent from all staff that we encountered. Only two minor complaints was the speed... More

“Great”

Reviewed 4 days ago NEW via mobile

Our family of 4 stayed for 2 nights for the World Cup of Hockey. We chose it for the location and was the best price we could find. We had a 2 queen executive which was small but not as small as other rooms in the hotel. It was fine as we weren't in our room for long. If you... More

“Pretty great hotel”

Reviewed 1 week ago NEW

The Strathcona Hotel was exactly what I needed for a 3-day business trip in Toronto. You'll find many complaints in previous reviews that the rooms were small- and that's definitely true. But you can't beat the location/price, and other hotels in the area are much more expensive. The hotel is in the heart of the financial district, and a 10... More

“Nice Hotel for an overnight stay”

Stayed at the Strathcona Hotel this past Saturday. It is located close to the Air Canada Center. Very modern facility, clean and friendly staff. Parking is $39/day. There is no free wifi, no coffee or refrigerator in the rooms. The room was SO TINY! We had three adults and one child in our 4'x6' room. There were two full size... More

“Location great, not for extended family vacations”

On vacation with family. Location was great for Ball Game and Eaton Centre (on our list) - walking distance - and minutes away from train to CNE. Room was very small (but clean) and had no drawers. Small closet to hang a couple of items. We were only there for 2 nights, any longer and this room would not be... More

“Quaint, unexpected”

Reviewed 1 week ago

I researched many hotels prior to our trip to Toronto...and since this one was the closest to the area we needed to be, I booked it. Not used to the Toronto hotel prices, so was a bit taken by the price, but it was very reasonable compared to others nearby. We arrived in Toronto very early. I had pre-requested an... More

“Great customer service but rooms are too small”

Reviewed 1 week ago via mobile

The lobby of the hotel is great as is the front desk staff. All the staff members were friendly and very helpful. The rooms were very, very small though and you could not comfortably walk around in them. This hotel would be good for a one night stay, but nothing more.

“Fantastic breakfast ”

We have had breakfast twice at Strathcona (not guests/ not staying) during our stay in Toronto & surrounding area. We just walked in off the street. Both times the food both hot & cold has been fantastic. For 14.99CAD you can eat as much as you want. I love Canadian bacon that i am happy just to eat that and... More
