Frommer's Review

If you're a diehard baseball fan, this Marriott hotel is a dream come true -- 70 rooms overlook the verdant Astroturf of the Rogers Centre, home of the Toronto Blue Jays. The field-view rooms are amazing if you remember one thing: The view goes both ways. Soon after it opened, the hotel became notorious when the amorous antics of a pair of guests showed up on the JumboTron, the giant screen that's supposed to be showing the on-field action. The incident is now a minor local legend. The lesson: All rooms have shades; remember to use them! The guest rooms are all a good size, but there's a definite pecking order: Rooms that face the city are the least expensive, with uninspiring views. Still, this is a strong contender as a tourist hotel -- it's in a great location for theater, dining, and sights.

About Our System

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.
