Fodor's Expert Review Hôtel Le Germain Toronto

The retro, redbrick exterior of this chic hotel—conveniently located near the TIFF Bell Lightbox—blends seamlessly with the historic architecture of the surrounding Theater District. The lobby has a library, a cappuccino bar, and a double-sided, open-hearth fireplace. Sleek furnishings fill ultramodern rooms, which have Bose stereos, Frette sheets, and sexy see-through showers. Suites have separate bedrooms and living rooms, fireplaces, and private terraces that afford superb views of the skyline. The restaurant, Victor, draws rave reviews for its Italian and continental fare and classy cocktails.
