Le Royal Meridien King Edward

Fodor's Review:

Toronto's first luxury hotel, a Heritage-designated property, has attracted a well-heeled clientele since 1903. Guests have included Rudyard Kipling and the Beatles. The "King Eddy" is still opulent, under the Starwood Hotels and Resorts banner. Its vaulted ceiling, marble pillars, and palm trees are well-known in Toronto society circles. Guest rooms aren't large by today's standards but are furnished in a charming English Edwardian manner. Elegance oozes from the crown moldings and mahogany beds. The hotel's Café Victoria and the Consort Bar (serving a light lunch menu) are favorites among the city's elite, as is the Nouvelle Maria Health Spa. Pros: excellent concierge service, lobby bar is a fine meeting place, hotel an architectural example of Old Toronto. Cons: could use refurbishment in some guest rooms, including electronic upgrades, has lost some of its original luster.
