Sophisticated and opulent, Tundra is designed to evoke elements of the Canadian landscape. How does one suggest the majesty of, say, a giant redwood? With columns wrapped in semitransparent fabric and lit from within, of course! (The stunning result is like a gargantuan Noguchi lamp.) Every detail, from the one-armed wing chairs to the Frette linens, is beautifully executed. The cuisine is just as artful. Arctic char is paired with Malpeque oysters and fried leeks; Nova Scotia lobster mates with tomato-avocado-bean salad and Yukon Gold potatoes. The results are elegantly complex. The wine list is exhaustive, so don't hesitate to ask for recommendations -- service is well informed and helpful.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
