The Ritz-Carlton, Toronto

The good: the rooms and service were as extraordinary as we expected. Worth the money and I would absolutely return for those. We ate at the on-site restaurant which was, again, nothing short of lovely. We were well taken care of, and satiated. The very bad: We selected to stay at this 4 Seasons due to the spa, (being a hotel *and spa*, after all). What better way to beat the winter in Toronto than a relaxing soak on a luxe spa? Unfortunately, relaxation is miles away at Four Seasons Toronto. The spa was absolutely OVERWHELMED with children, including pool noodles, floaties, screaming horseplay, and beach balls. In what world is that conducive to relaxation?? We were unable to use the lap pool due to an ongoing game of Marco Polo. The 2 person infrared sauna was almost never available because of a rotating door of children rushing in and out to experiment with it. I understand that the spa is not adults-only, but there are apparently no rules whatsoever here. This experience made Carnival Cruise feel high-brow by comparison. Consider yourself warned.

Just spent 10 days at Four Seasons Toronto and couldn't rave about it more. The room was spacious, well designed and comfortable. I was traveling with colleagues and we all remarked how cozy and quiet the rooms were. As expected at a Four Seasons, the service was top notch. The concierge went out of his way to help with a couple of specific requests, the servers in d | bar were gracious and helpful. My only note of feedback is the huge miss on the fitness center -- while it's being renovated they are offering two very substandard spaces within the hotel not befitting of a Four Seasons. Other than that, highly highly recommend!

Great Experience all around. My fiancé and I stayed here for our engagement party in Toronto and I must say the rooms, the service, and the location are superb. My suit has still not been pressed as nice as it has been by the four seasons hotel staff since, and I miss the truffle fries.
