Review summary

Based on recent reviews

The Residence Inn impresses many with its excellent downtown Toronto location, placing guests within easy walking distance of attractions like the Rogers Centre. The spacious rooms, some upgraded to suites, come equipped with full kitchens, including conveniences like a microwave, refrigerator, and even a dishwasher, plus varied and delicious breakfast options. While the breakfast area can get busy, and some guests have mentioned minor bathroom cleanliness issues, the inclusion of a pool and other amenities provides good value for money.
