“A new fave for us!”

Had an event to attend in Toronto and decided to make a weekend of it. Booked using Hotwire and got The King Edward. First off, you really can't beat the location as it is within walking distances of many attractions and a few steps from the subway. The lobby and common areas are very nice, definitely show the history of... More

The old world charm of the building is incredible along with the architecture of the lobby and main floor. Our room was a good size but very long & narrow, I couldn't even read the guide on the TV it was so far away from the bed. Had a great view of a brick wall. No ice machines so ordered... More

“Century hotel, rooms need upgrading”

I love the romance of staying in a century old hotel....my son was actually married here. The lobby is beautiful...the bar is full of character. However, the rooms really need to be upgraded...The bathtub is old and slippery...a tub mat should have been provided...There was NO shower cap....unbelievable!! Housecleaning could have been much better. I was shocked that WiFi was... More

In essence the consistency of service was lacking. The restaurant and bar service was outstanding and the quality of the food was very good. The prices though were exorbitant...especially considering there are several quality eateries close to the Hotel. (Memorial Day long weekend for us US-Folks) We booked a room with 2 queen beds for a family of four. We... More

“An elegant landmark hotel”

Reviewed 1 June 2013

This hotel and the Royal York are the two elderly landmark institutions of Toronto. I'm still uncertain about whether I prefer the Royal York or the King Edward. Both are charming and both have their positives and negatives. The lobby of the King Edward was beautiful. The hotel has a wonderful history with many famous former guests including: the beatles,...
