The 14 Best Hotels in Toronto
"The Royal York has been open since 1929 and recently underwent a renovation to usher it into its second century. Built on the site of an even older hotel (from the 1850s), the landmark occupies a full block in the Financial District, and is located across the street from Union Station and close to sites like the CN Tower and Rogers Stadium. Past a majestic façade that stretches up to a central tower, the vast, bustling lobby is currently undergoing a renovation that will refresh the materials and décor, but keep the historic feel—and placing a grand new clock in the lobby, as a nod to the famous lobby meeting point—intact. The revamp is slated to be finished in 2019." - Sandra Ramani, Todd Plummer
