Toronto Hotel Advice
 
Hi, I am staying at the Toronto Colony Hotel soon. I understand it is a reasonable choice in that price range. Just wanted to know if location is O.K. Any advice welcome. <BR>Thanks.

It's fine.<BR><BR>Plus the Dim Sum is excellent, reports my wife, who ate there yesterday.<BR><BR>If you see Toronto photos or maps, the Colony is just behind and to the left of the clam-shaped Toronto City Hall, as you look at the commopn views pof city hall.<BR><BR>BAK<BR><BR>

Wouldn't be my favourite place to put out-of-towners. It's close to the Eaton Centre and to the A.G.O. and Chinatown. Better to go to Yorkville or more Downtown. There are a lot of better choices. Email directly if you have more questions.

Thanks for advice. Looks like opinion split 50/50 on this one. Any one else been to this hotel?<BR> James.

Stayed at the Colony for 4 days in a super suite on the 11th floor. The location was super, one block from the Eaton center, 2 blocks from the bus station, Red Lobster was only a few blocks away, we enjoyed the location because we don't drive in Canada, we're from Bermuda and don't like the way you all use the wrong side of the road. I think you'll like the Colony we sure did.

Thanks Pat.<BR> I`m from Scotland so to me they drive on the wrong side to. I have driven in the U.S. and it was O.K. in fact I enjoyed it! <BR> Cheers, James.<BR>

Beware Pat and James - I dared to use the phrase "wrong side of the road" when asking a question about car rental in London and was viciously flamed by other posters.
