Toronto Hotels

Quick! Name the city with the world's tallest building and longest city street. Need a hint? It's as far south as the French Riviera. Give up? It is none other than Toronto, Canada. Those are just a first of a long list of surprises that you will find in this beautiful city. Hotels in Toronto are as varied as the city itself. You may choose a sleek Toronto hotel in the middle of the ultramodern downtown sector, or something more casual on the outskirts of the city. Whatever you choose, you can't possibly go wrong in this business and vacation capital of Canada.

To see the entire city at a glance head to the CN Tower. The world's tallest building has tours to the top with magnificent views of the city and the adjoining lakes. If the height makes you dizzy you can recover at Eaton Centre which features 6 mi/11 km of underground shopping. Prefer open spaces? Then we suggest the Royal Botanical Gardens. Canada's largest botanical garden features 2700 acres of magnificent, cultivated garden areas and spectacular nature sanctuaries. If that's too sedate you can participate in a kayak expedition or take a helicopter ride. No matter what your taste, you will not be bored in this city.

Toronto boasts one of the largest selections of Museums and Galleries in North America. The Royal Ontario Museum, the Art Gallery of Ontario, Ontario Science Centre, and the Spadina Historic House and Gardens are some of the most significant. And we can't forget the fervent passion of the national pastime of Canada, which is honored at the Hockey Hall of Fame.

As the day winds down you have just as many choices. Spend your evening in the bistros and cafes in the trendy Queen Street West section of town, or the pubs in the Beaches or the restaurants and bars of Little Italy.

Toronto is a wonderful, varied, modern city, complete with beautiful architecture, a busy cultural calendar, and activities for the entire family. But you will leave the city most impressed with the friendliness of its people, the safety of communities, and the cleanliness of its streets - goals that many other large cities only dream about.
