Expert reviews
“The hotels in Canada’s biggest city tend to skew either unremittingly corporate or standard bohemian-chic. This lush new exception—a literal urban oasis that takes sustainability seriously—is distinguished by its biophilic design, impressive conservation programs, and real community mindedness.”
Featured in Condé Nast Traveler’s 2022 Hotlist.
“1 Hotel Toronto opened its doors in August 2021, ushering in a breath of fresh air to the King West neighborhood. As the sixth property in the growing 1 Hotels portfolio and the first in Canada, the Toronto hotel brings the eco-friendly brand’s ethos to life by being nature-inspired, sustainability-focused and community-oriented while delivering luxury hospitality.”

It was perfect
The staff was helpful and kind. This hotel (I’m talking the actual hotel property and staff) was one of a kind, it truly was one of the best experiences I’ve ever had at a hotel.

Comfortable but a bit disappointing in some areas
Great comfy stay, good sized room, loved that they had small chalk boards in the rooms to communicate with the housekeeper, room service is actually really tasty.
Being charged a delivery fee for room service, quality of toilet paper is unacceptable for such a high standard hotel, also why is everything in the minibar an extra cost and also exorbitantly price ? Just dropping over 1k per night but then being charged 7$ for a small bag of chips, or basically anything in else in the minibar is cheap.

A well designed hotel with very comfortable rooms and excellent food.
We love this hotel. The rooms are very comfortable and the food is excellent quality.
To a large degree the hotel is one large nightclub with hordes of people mobbing the lobby, the lifts and everywhere in between.

A touch of luxury in Toronto!
Excellent hotel, facilities and staff! 100% in every category and I really recommend this hotel! Uniquely designed with sustainability in mind and the decor reflect this, from 'live' murals to the room keys! Really 'funky' hotel with a lot of class thrown in! We will definitely be returning here.
The hotel exceeded in all expectations and I have nothing negative to say about this property

Nice hotel
Great location and restaurants were good but a little expensive.
Next to major building works so was woken up early with loud noises. Also no decent views.

Prefect.
Well clean nice property. Well located to see Toronto. We took the bikes out which was really nice. We also enjoyed the rooftop pool.
The only thing about the hotel I didn’t like was the amount of sunbeds (there is only 3 pairs).

Good!
The staff and concierge vehicle driver were amazing.
18 August 2023
The hotel was beautiful but too much restricted access in getting around the hotel.
The sustainability of it all was wonderful, the room was very comfortable and had everything we needed.
I didn’t love the locked staircases (I am someone who prefers using the stairs rather than an elevator and the staircase is strictly for emergency use only as you can’t get back onto your floor even with the fob key). I also had family staying on another floor and it was difficult to visit them in their room but I understand why those restrictions are implemented, just quite inconvenient.

Perfect escape within the city.
Staff were incredible. Property is gorgeous.
No complaints.

Overall a great experience in down town Toronto
The bed and pillows were nice, as well as the shower flow. Having a balcony was a bonus. Also, I need to mention staff attentiveness which were ready to help and assist.
The hallways were not very clean, the carpet looking tired and dirty.

Trendy, Modern & stylish, incredible staff that go above and beyond, hotel for the young & hip???
Very stylish Hotel, Very trendy and in a hip area, seemed quite a young crowd (Or maybe I'm getting a bit old!) could be noisy at the weekends for some. The staff were amazing and went far and beyond to make sure our stay was perfect, overall the service was faultless and I think that makes the biggest difference. The rooms were immaculately clean, modern and stylish. I would definatly stay again.
Could be noisy for some, especially at the weekends. The roof top bar is good with great views but is open to the public with no areas kept for Hotel customers. We managed to squeeze in but would have been disappointed had we not been able to have a drink as guests considering the room rate. The idea that the hotel is sustainable falls short in some places, it's a hotel after all! some touches are great though like the water in the rooms being chilled filtered drinking water. Some rooms on the lower floors could be noisy for some, proximity to the street and parties happening at the weekends. Our first room suffered from this, we also noticed no privacy blinds in the lower room only curtains!?

Overall the property was great and the staff was very attentive.
I like the theme of sustainability. The decor created a relaxed atmosphere. The lobby and bar are really cool and fun to hang out.
It’s not a great location and there currently is a lot of construction in the area.

Exceptional
Had brunch two mornings and it was amazing!
Valet didn't help take my bags from reception to the car upon check out. He simply post me to the door and gave me directions to where my car was, but not offer to help with my bags. I paid for valet service.

Outstanding in every way!
Exceptional facilities, foods, drinks, location. Outstanding overall. I loved the view, the open spaces. There were a lot of smaller details which made a big impact. I've never experienced a hotel as impressive as this.
When I was checking out, people knocked on door twice even though I had a late check out and walked in without knocking the second time. Not a biggy.
