Strathcona Hotel

Good value for the price!

I was there for Caribana..so I didn't spend too much time lounging in my room. The room was cozy and suitable to crash at night...wouldn't recommend it for much more, convenience to Downtown and union station outweighed all else. The concierge was very helpful in pointing out the best in TO. Parking (if I had a rental) would probably have been tough though!

Not Worth the Price

The cost of the hotel did not match my expectations and comfort. After driving 10 hours to get to this hotel we were told it was in our best interest to use public parking several blocks away as the security for the hotel parking is inadequate. Additionally, the room was sooo small, the view was basically another section of the hotel, which left me with a feeling of being in a basement apt. Lastly, the towels were awful! They left lint all over. We gave up and used the hairdryer to dry our skins off. The only thing that was pleasing about this hotel was the location.

A little pricey...

This hotel was adequate. It was clean, it had a great location, and the service was good. The guests in one of the neighboring rooms were pretty loud during the night, but I called the front desk and they sent someone up right away - noise wasn't an issue after that! However, I thought that the price I paid was a little high for the size room we got. Overall decent hotel.

Excellent location in downtown

Rooms were very clean and the decoration looked good, although the two bed-room was relatively small. The elevator used to shake when stopping at any floor. The location is excellent if you're looking for something in downtown area and it's just about a block away from the nearest subway station (Union), which is pretty convenient for transportation.

Good Value

The hotel is in a great location, but our room looked out on a back alley and was dark, even with the windows open. I would recommend this hotel for young students/people who are looking for a good, cheap place to stay in downtown Toronto. We referred to it as our "Hostel", but it was very clean.

not a good neighborhood

Hotel was fine but my car was broken into in the parking lot next door (the only parking near the hotel). Not a great experience or neighborhood.

Just what it says on the tin

The Strathcona is a good hotel in a good location, with no pretensons to be fancy. Good value for money, with the added bonus of very pleasant staff.

Great location & clean!

When you have to be downtown...

Small rooms

There was barely enough room for our luggage and us. Very narrow space to walk between walls, furniture and doors.

Good Hotel

Hotel was good with a nice location and well maintained. Lacks parking and rooms could have been little bigger. I enjoyed my stay. Standard room is enough for just one person deluxe was better.

Strathcona

Overall the hotel was great. Very dissapointed in the room size, though.
