"Directly across the street from the Royal Ontario Museum in Yorkville, the Royal Sonesta is a four-star hotel with a heated indoor rooftop swimming pool, a massage studio, a vodka bar boasting over 50 vodka varieties, and an in-house eatery whose menu is inspired by Toronto’s cultural diversity. The rooms have a modern, minimalist design with lots of natural light, a large desk, seating area, Nespresso machine, flatscreen TV, and minibar; the large marble bathrooms have walk-in showers (I found the water pressure a bit low), plush bathrobes and slippers, and there’s a 24/7 fitness center on site." - Matthew Kepnes
