Fairmont Royal York Hotel, Toronto

100 Front St W, Toronto, ON M5J 1E3, Canada (show on map)

Expert reviews

CNN review:

“The Royal York is the Grand Dame of Toronto’s hotel scene, an imposing stone and copper-roofed structure that’s firmly anchored in a sea of steel and glass. It’s been a star since it officially opened in 1929, a favorite for royalty, celebrities, movie directors and regular folk.”

Telegraph review:

“Dominating the skyline for decades after it was built in 1929, the Royal York is the Canadian grande dame of the Fairmont chain. Amping up the luxury factor has kept the hotel in step with the times, a storied icon with a modern outlook. Recent guests have included members of the British Royal Family.”

Have been to the Royal York many times and will continue to use it as a ‘home base’ whenever we are in the city without

We were travelling by Via so a super easy transition from Union to the hotel, the ACC for the Leaf game and a visit to the Hockey Hall of Fame. The hotel rotunda and main floor corridors were beautifully decorated for the Christmas holiday season. The concierge was most helpful and very polite!!

Fantastic and kind staff, and the location is nice.

For the price paid for the room, it looked dated and the view of an office building and a loading dock wasn’t the desirable view one would want.

I understand the hotel is upgrading their decor. My room is likely on the to do list. Still very comfortable, just a bit tired and not how it was shown on the website.

Amazing stay in a landmark Toronto hotel.

The Fairmont Royal York hotel is situated in a great location to explore Toronto. You are in walking distance from the CN Tower and Rogers Centre across the street from Union Station. The hotel itself is very grand and steeped in history. Photos and signatures from Queen Elizabeth are on display in the lobby area. Our trip was just before Christmas where the decoration display will rival anywhere. The rooms are spacious, clean and modern. Our room on the 10th floor had a partial lake and CN Tower view. Bathrooms were modern, ours only had a shower which suited us fine. Room service was quick and the food excellent.

As the hotel is a landmark to Toronto there are a lot of people congregating in the lobby areas making videos for social media which can be a bit problematic when trying to get in and out of the hotel. It was also a bit frustrating that we could not get access to any of the hotel bars as these were fully booked. As a hotel guest I feel we should have preference to these amenities. If you will be using the bars in the hotel it may be worth checking if reservations are required.

Wonderful service, made to feel welcomed and valued.

The room was well-appointed and the bed was very comfortable. We really appreciated the complementary coffee (Nespresso) and that there was a kettle in addition to the coffee machine available.

The only thing about the Fairmont Royal York is that the rooms, especially the bathrooms are on the small side - beautiful, but small.

Beautiful hotel, convenient location and accomodating and friendly staff.

The location was close to everything. The hotel was beautifully decorated for the holiday season. The room and hotel were clean. We enjoyed having a drink and snack in the center bar and had breakfast in Reign.

Three of us stayed in the room and there was only 2 bath robes and slippers.

Amazing! Thank you!

The most comfortable beds ever, room service was amazing. Quality of linens and towels was superb. Our ac wasn’t working and we called them at 2am and they came within minutes and fixed it for us, AMAZING and THANK YOU! Nespresso coffee, great location, bars on property were divine, classy and amazing food and drinks.

We went during Christmas and it was crazy! That’s not their fault. The hotel is beautiful so everyone wants To see it, the problem is we could never get a seat at one of the restaurants because of this.
