Fairmont Royal York Hotel

Generally positive mentions of cleanliness and housekeeping; guests noted clean rooms and helpful housekeeping staff.

Mostly praised — staff were accommodating (handled a fire alarm professionally), front desk and bartenders received strong praise — but some reports of understaffing, long reception lines and missing bellhop assistance.

Consistently praised as excellent — opposite Union Station and close to CN Tower and aquarium; very convenient for travel and events.

Mixed to negative: multiple guests noted outdated decor, small bathrooms, need for renovation, elevator/subway noise and older TVs.

Good lounges, added in-room WiFi and indoor parking were appreciated; some issues with slow room service and limited a la carte breakfast options.

Several guests felt the hotel was overpriced, mentioned unexpected fees/taxes and poor perceived value for the room rate.

Mixed feedback: some praised the restaurants and food, while others reported limited breakfast choices and slow/poor-value room service.

Generally a comfortable and enjoyable stay at an iconic historic hotel with strong location and service, despite noise, some outdated rooms and value concerns.
