| - What a place! My girlfriend and I just visited Toronto for an action packed extended weekend. Naturally I kept my mouth shut on the topic of hotels. I agreed to follow orders and stay where ever she decided. After researching the area, she finally chose the Gladstone, which turned out to be a great choice.
We arrived at noon but our check in time wasn't until 3 pm. No matter, Ricardo (the super friendly, extremely helpful, hip to be cool receptionist) came to the rescue. Ricardo was not only able to check us into a new room, he also gave us an upgrade. He explained to us the area, gave us maps, advised us on parking and gave us a detailed rundown of the hotels history. Within the first ten minutes of arriving I new my GF had made the right decision. Here is a rundown of the hotel.
Staff was excellent, knowledgeable and friendly. The rooms are each a distinct design from local artists so no two rooms are the same. The hotel is equipped with a bar, cafe and restaurant and is located in a great part of town.
The Gladstone is a home run when it comes to hotels. I am certainly not an expert on extravagant hotels, but I can confidently say that this place was the best hotel I have ever had the pleasure of staying at.
