Toronto Marriott Downtown Eaton Centre

Frommer's Review

Attention, shoppers: Those who want proximity to Toronto's central shrine to commerce should seriously consider checking in here. Connected to the Eaton Centre, the Marriott is just a few minutes' walk from the financial and theater districts, Chinatown, and The Rogers Centre. This hotel caters to the tourist crowd: While a good concierge at any hotel can point you in the direction of, say, a hot restaurant, the Marriott has desks set up to facilitate day-trip planning and other activities. Because of its location, this is a fine choice for determined sightseers. One caveat is that the area immediately surrounding the Eaton Centre is pickpocket heaven. On the positive side, it's always busy in this neighborhood; in summer the Yonge-Dundas Square offers open-air concerts and films.

Most of the Marriott's guest rooms are well sized, and all of them now have 32-inch flatscreen TVs. Because you'll find office towers in all directions, blocking many of the views, a pleasant surprise is the view of the beautiful 19th-century Holy Trinity Church from the Parkside restaurant.
