Toronto Islands Beach Holidays

So surprised!! A hotel near Clifton Hill, but a world away. Blown away by the room (sizes, amenities, decor, quiet, serene atmosphere). The staff is gracious and helpful. Certainly, an adult hotel for vacation, romance, etc. Ha! The free breakfast delivered to your door with a smile? Fantastic. I'm really not making this up. We will stay here again and again.

My stay at 1 Hotel Toronto was genuinely wonderful from start to finish. The Flora Lounge is a highlight — the lush greenery creates a calming, nature-inspired atmosphere unlike any hotel bar I’ve visited. What truly sets this property apart is the staff. Yaz was warm, engaging, and spot-on with every menu recommendation. The woman managing the pool on Sunday afternoon (I’m sorry I didn’t catch her name!) was equally delightful. At Harriet’s, Alejandra (Ale) brought such genuine kindness and attentiveness to every interaction. When my travel plans changed unexpectedly, Jonah, Ify, and Shamar handled everything with patience and efficiency. I couldn’t have felt more looked after. I left feeling like family rather than a guest, and I’m already planning my return with my mom and sister. À bientôt! 🌿

Very clean. Staff was very friendly and helpful.

Everything was very good.

Very well maintained, and close to downtown

Great location. Wonderful restaurants!

Staying in the gold rooms is always a pleasure in the staff are so nice

Excellent (second) stay! The staff were incredibly kind and helpful.

Our room was cleaned daily and staff went above and beyond for us. Highly recommend staying here

Excellent central place to stay which exudes opulence. The staff will literally offer to help you in any way possible. Rooms are extremely spacious, clean, and well looked after. The beds are also extremely comfy. You can see why it has a five star rating. However there are two major elements that let the hotel down. One is the ridiculously high $200 a night Security Deposit. The biggest bugbear however would be the extremely cramped and very basic bathrooms in the rooms themselves. While the rooms are decadent and scream 5 star luxury, the bathrooms would struggle to reach 3 star status, and of all the hotel chains I have stayed in, even the likes of Premier Inn and Travelodge offer better bathroom facilities. In conclusion go for the history, the luxury, the staff, the location, but avoid if you want that luxury to extend to the bathroom. For us, the pros far far outweigh the cons

Very clean. Staff was very friendly and helpful.

Have a pancake or waffle maker in your breakfast area

We got upgraded to a penthouse suite upon check in, unfortunately for us though they were doing maintenance work on the balconies and they were unusable. My biggest complaint about this hotel is that it is 1 ply toilet paper in a penthouse suite, that makes no sense lol.
