The Best Luxury Hotels in Toronto

  • The Ritz-Carlton: It's Toronto's first Ritz, and the brand's reputation for elegance and five-star service does not disappoint. From the moment you enter the dramatic lobby, the ambition to impress is all around. Sip a sophisticated cocktail in one of the lounges, save room for a sublime meal at the Canadiana-themed restaurant TOCA, and luxuriate in spacious rooms or corner suites. There's an excellent on-site spa with an adjoining lap pool and polished gym, too.
  • Le Germain Hotel: Located in the heart of the entertainment district, this hotel is for guests who want incredibly attentive—yet never cloying—service from a staff that will go to great lengths to accommodate a special request, whether it's for show tickets or meals entirely free of allergens. A second location near the Air Canada Centre remains true to the high standards of the original.
  • Thompson Toronto: The hip luxury brand that started in New York City has landed in Toronto. Smartly situated in the King West district, this super-hot boutique hotel opened in summer 2010. Sixteen floors of fine modern design are complemented by floor-to-ceiling windows, a rooftop pool, a private screening room, a sushi bar, and excellent service.
