We booked 2 rooms , King with sofa bed and 2queen suite for our family and they gave us rooms across from each other . Rooms were spacious , air conditioning worked well. They had fridge , a microwave but no safe ( there was one in reception) . Beds were very comfortable and we did not experience noise from other guests. One of the room doors was hard to open and hotel said it was because building is old and they expand, but they did organise for the door to be sanded and it then worked well. There is also small gym Queen room faced out onto brick wall and was dark, King room faces courtyard so was much brighter . Breakfast was in a large well laid out room, there was always seats. Typical Hampton breakfast , well stocked. Scrambled egg or omelette next day. Sausages Cereals , fruit. , bagels , small donuts and yogurts , toast and waffle machine. Coffee available all day. Staff on reception very helpful - they gave us late checkout to 2 pm (no charge) and stored luggage later as had late flight. They ordered large van/SUV for us to airport and it was flat fee $95 (5 people 5 large cases) Location is near Yonge Dundas Square (about 10 min walk) and 22 min walk from St Lawrence market. It was c40 min walk to CN tower. So it is a little bit out. It is near public transport but we did not use.We enjoy walking but did get Uber some days . If walking towards lakefront I would turn right on Gerrard St and walk down Church or Yonge St as there was a lot of homeless as you walked down Jarvis toward Queen St intersection We enjoyed our stay. We would have preferred interconnecting rooms for kids but room across worked well -hotel is little further away from main tourist areas but good for those that like walking .

We chose the Hampton Inn Toronto Downtown because of its proximity to a summer course we were checking our daughter in to. For that reason I give this hotel 5 stars. If I were here visiting, just to see attractions, and expected to walk everywhere, I would probably choose a hotel closer to the center of sightseeing. (why 4 stars comes in to play). That said, this location is still within walking distance of sights, just longer walks, which we enjoy. The rooms are clean and the bathrooms are totally functional. I appreciate that the showers have a glass enclosure. For those who use a diffuser at home, and hate not having one when using hotel blow-dryers, this hotel is for you. They provide attachments for the hairdryer. The thermostat in the rooms works well. You can heat up and cool down the room quickly. They provide a small refrigerator and small microwave as well as coffee in room. We stayed in a double queen room and there was plenty of room to move around, as well as two luggage racks for storing luggage. As with most Hampton Inn's, breakfast is provided and has a good selection. Coffee, tea and hot chocolate, as well as apples are available all day. One reviewer commented on views. To make it easier, the rooms ending in 00 and 02 face the Main Street (Jarvis) and the park. Those ending in odd numbers have some kind of city view. Those ending in even numbers look like they face the wall of the next building. Just food for thought when reserving. We stayed in 705. All was good for us.

“clean room and good staff, but improvements needed”

Front desk clerk Joseph M. was helpful and always courteous. He recommended a local pub which served an outstanding steak sandwich, really a cut above most pub food.

Front desk clerk Joseph M. was helpful and always courteous. He recommended a local pub which served an outstanding steak sandwich, really a cut above most pub food. The room, breakfast room, and rest of the property were all very clean. The room had a mini-fridge and microwave. The bed was comfortable. We appreciated the blackout window shade. The hot breakfast (eggs, etc., not only continental as reported by another contributor) buffet was as expected for a hotel of this level. The property is centrally located, only a few blocks from a large supermarket which sells deli food, but be careful because some parts of the neighborhood are unsavory. Unfortunately, there are no laundry facilities, so we had to walk to a laundromat for 15 minutes one-way on a sweltering hot humid day. Note to Hilton: Please put laundry machines in your hotels. Our room was odd – no table and no chair, so it was necessary to sit on the bed to eat from a plate on one’s lap. Unfortunately, a housekeeper, who was a total stranger to me, asked me twice about my ethnic identity for no discernible reason whatsoever. Note to Hilton: Please instruct your employees to refrain from irrelevant personal questions.

“Ok For One Night”

The layout of this hotel is not like other Hiltons. It seems like it may have been an apartment building previously. The main entrance has 5 stairs.

The layout of this hotel is not like other Hiltons. It seems like it may have been an apartment building previously. The main entrance has 5 stairs. So if you need a luggage cart, you need the staff to unlock a short elevator that brings you down to the main elevators. The elevators are the smallest I have ever been in. The staff was friendly but the hotel does kitchen have a list of local restaurants. One was recommended but when I googled it, it was showing as permanently closed.
