The Windsor Hotel requires major renovation and upgrade.

One of the two elevators did not work the entire five days I was there. The F&B is very poor and the F&B service none existence.

The concierge was helpful and so was the front desk, but the housekeeping was poor and unreliable.

I would not stay there again unless there would be a major renovation and improvement in housekeeping and F&B.

Beautiful, historic hotel. Staff were extremely friendly and the room was excellent especially given the price compared to other hotels in the area.

The building itself is old and it has characteristics of an old building. Some things show a bit of (aesthetic) wear but are completely clean and functional otherwise.

The continental breakfast was a bit of a disappointment ($19 for coffee, juice, and a selection of about four different pastries) and I'd recommend going to one of the many cafes in the area instead.

The property has a lot of old school character and eclectic elegance, we stayed in a lovely suite. The location is great. Afternoon tea is an amazing experience. However we had dinner at the Gatsby restaurant and it was out of character and awful by any measure. Other reviews report the same. Too bad this drags the whole property down.

Wonderful hotel. Clean room, comfortable beds, lovely staff. Fantastic breakfast. I ordered my eggs over medium (for eggs Benny) and the eggs were cooked to actual perfection (which a lot of restaurants have difficulty with) these eggs were perfect!
I didn’t give a perfect score for maintenance only because there were a few minor things in our room and the pool area that I noticed needed repairing. Great hotel would stay there again!

At the Windsor Arms Hotel one might expect Agatha Christie to step out of one of the rooms! This hotel is right out of a page from the Great Gatsby for sure! Our 4th floor junior suite was comfy cozy,clean and very quiet. We didn’t hear a peep from the very loud gathering held in the ballroom on 1 st floor when we returned to our room from a fantastic Lebanese restaurant recommended to us by one of the very friendly and knowledgeable front desk people. Breakfast in the breakfast room was good with great service . Concierge and valet people all very attentive. We were last at this fine old hotel in 1989!It was lovely to see that although it has been renovated not much has changed in its character and that is a good thing!

A lovely boutique hotel in Yorkville! Service was fantastic, our room was clean and spacious, the free bubbly and cookies, as well as really nice selection of free tea and coffee in the room was a nice touch. The decor is a bit dated, I’m not sure it’s giving luxury the way it maybe used to. But the spa is fantastic - highly recommend! Altogether a nice stay in Toronto!

Over washed scratchy towels. Do not disturb is ignored. Shower could use better cleaning. Definitely needed better cleaning of the curtains and had to advise staff of an issue. Cheap hairdryer and was replaced with an even cheaper one. Environment is in good location and quiet. Carpet needs replacing.

This hotel is well located and quiet.
However, it is not a five star property by any definition. The interiors are tired but worse, my room was dirty. Skirting boards and corners had not been wiped down and had hair stuck on them. The bathroom floor was stained as was the shower. Better to stay less expensive but clean.

Value and sservice lacking

The physical property is fine - BUT the service is very mixed. Ask for them to order a taxi from my room and they did not do it until I came to the lobby - wait meant i nearly missed plane. Breakfast menu was horrible - too complex. no fruit. Delivery of hair dryer and dinner to room were problematic - not owrthy of very high price.

What a great stay. Jake at the front desk was so helpful and knowledgable during our stay, my sister wanted a photo with him before we left! The hotel room was beautiful and the high tea and food at Gatsby was amazing. The service was impeccable. We will be back!

Great location, very interesting hotel, wonderful restaurant, and good food. I'm giving 100 stars for the saltwater pool—amazing! It's one of the best I've used in North America. The water is so warm, making it perfect for cold Toronto nights.

However, the room was not as clean as expected for a five-star hotel. There were dust clumps in the closet, and overall, it didn't have a 'clean' smell. The bathroom could definitely use an update, with an old sink, a cracked countertop, and cracked flooring.However, The shower is good, with strong water pressure.

For the price of this hotel it was not as clean and efficient as cheaper hotels.
Very run down in some areas - carpets full of stains, gross bathroom that needs work (clean cocking, paint etc)
Room service very slow - outrageous prices.
Promised a themed tea party and it not done - again the price was crazy for what we got.
People nice that worked there, especially in the breakfast room.

The hotel staff was absolutely amazing. We stayed in two different types of rooms. Very clean needs some upgrades/fixes in the junior suite we stayed in. The deluxe suite was in great condition. They added extra touches like complimentary champagne, homemade cookies/macaroons and fresh flowers. Has a cute tea room for breakfast and a Gatsby bar for drinks :) Would recommend.

The experience was 5*. I found the British and traditional style quite refreshing from modern hotels. The experience was very, very nice. They had my luggage put in the room. They gave me a tour of the property. It was a small bottle of Prosecco in my room to enjoy. Some cookies were delivered in the evening. I found the entire experience very very, relaxing and sophisticated. I would highly recommend this property.

Staff are excellent. The hotel is a small gem. It has a lovely intimacy about it. The rooms are very high quality. The only downside is that if you are looking for a top-flight gym/spa facility, this isn't the place to go. It's a place to go for a quiet romantic stay in the city. Also, the TV package sucks. Does it really cost that much to bring in SportsNet and a higher quality cable service?

Our stay at the Windsor Arms Hotel was even better than I expected. I loved the nostalgia of the building and the decor was spot-on for it. We had high tea in the lovely tea room and the experience was exactly as I had hoped it would be. The luxury brand shopping within walking distance combined with a few Tim Horton's along the way made this U.S. resident enjoy my Canada neighbor all the more! We will return as the service was impeccable. Highly recommend this hotel experience!

Last minute booking, but it did not disappoint. I would travel to Toronto to just stay here....wonderful property and very beautiful. We had a suite that was beyond spacious for the two of us. Ate at all the restaurants around the area and everything was good. Traffic getting into Toronto was really rough, but this was a nice way to end after a day of travel.

Beautiful- Yes. Cool and hip - No.

Lovely hotel but a bit old school and stuffy. Really great staff. Lovely room. Fantastic location if you like luxury shopping and great restaurants. But if you’re looking for a cool hip place this isn’t it. It brings me back to hotels of days gone by. It’s clean and well kept but feels like the interior design decisions were all made a few decades ago. Well executed but definitely very old school.

Hotel is in dire need of a refresh. First room I stayed in was nothing less than seedy and generally run down. However, the front desk staff moved me to a lovely one bedroom suite that was, at least, in descent shape. Staff were all excellent and can’t be faulted for anything - they are the bright spot in a hotel that is definitely showing its age.

The dining room/bar is brilliant, full of stunning private nooks and small rooms in plush green leather, tapestry and velvet wing chairs and booth seats, each room beautifully decorated with period ink drawings and splashy modern paintings of royalty, a library of antique books, and cushy bar areas for a drink. A cosy spot to relax after a day in town.

Great hotel in great neighborhood

Beautiful older hotel with exceptional service. Large, spacious suite with plenty of room for four of us. Everyone at the Windsor Arms was extremely nice and helpful. Pleasant pool and spa.

The Windsor Arms Hotel is tucked into a quiet street in the center of the shopping district making it a serene hub for anything we wanted to do in Toronto. We could have happily spent a day just enjoying the hotel itself: Gatsby's restaurant, the spa, High Tea. Service was friendly, speedy and efficient. The room was spacious and comfy. It is like a hotel from decades ago when style and comfort mattered.
