Through Hotwire.ca is 130$(all in) and its 2.2 miles from the GUV. I was wondering if you guys knew about any other options or good deals. Any advise would be appriciated.

The Pantages is great!

Westin is unequivocally the closest hotel to guv. No question. You can see the damn place from the hotel. Plus the rooms have been upgraded recently.

After that, there's one on York just north of Front (name escapes me), plus the Fairmont obviously.

yup i love the pantages

If you're looking to save cash via priceline/hotwire & want an idea of what hotel is where then visit:

http://www.betterbidding.com/index.php?showforum=162

They have some hotel lists/bidding options for priceline so you can get more or less what you want.

Although, with hotwire rooms, you're not always guaranteed a queen/king bed but only accomodation for 2. When I first started using hotwire in 2003 you could get whatever you wanted without hassle but in the past few years, especially on busy weekends in popular areas, you may get the run-around or asked to pay more for an 'upgrade'.

Go for Westin Harbour Castle. Fantastic hotel and very convienient.

Download the Priceline app on your iPhone! After my first score via my iPhone this summer, I got a $25 credit in my account on my next winning bid hotel. Sweet!

Now this is what I do for for the best bang for the buck... Hotwire and priceline pretty much end you up in the same hotel going by the stars. So first I check hotwire to see what a great rate is for a 4-star, like your $130. This amount will give you a for sure grab rate on Priceline. I then go on priceline, and start bidding like $20 below that, or more if you have several 24hr periods to rebid for the same star rating beforehand.

Hotel Waverly

CZ

I stayed at the Bond Place Hotel on Dundas overlooking Dundas Square, and I couldn't recommend a hotel more then this place. It's rated as a 2 1/2 star but it's spotless, brand new.. flat screen TVs, very simple modern rooms, comfortable beds, brand new bathrooms.. I paid $79/night on hotwire just last weekend. If you see a deal for $79/night downtown east toronto I highly suggest it. I also called them and asked for a queen size bed and they hooked me up.

Forgot about this! Rooms are strange...once we didn't have any windows that looked outside.

I stayed at Bond Place hotel when I went to guv for new years like 10 years ago...awww. It was dodgy back then!

i must defend this as I work at One King West. The trick here is to get a room on a higher floor as the lower portion of the building is boxed in by the surrounding banks and tall office buildings.

I can get decent rates...however not over labour day weekend or in the leadup to the film festival.

in addition, the 14th floor has a werid layout as it is where the tower section connects with the historical part of the building. I would avoid rooms on the 14th floor.

Plus anything interesting in the vault?

i booked the westin but it was such a long time ago, got it for $89 i think. i like 1 king west as well... always had good rooms and the staff are really nice. samhouse i'll be hitting u up next time i want to stay there

That's what I came into this thread to say

like two others have mentioned, 1 King West. Look for promotions on their website too.

Great continental breakfast as well.

Ive tried prety much every Hotel Room in the City...since we are
doing alot of reservations for the artists. I would say these are the
best.

1) Cosmopolitan
2) Pantages
3) The Germain
4) The Soho Metropolitan
5) The Hyatt (on King)

The Cosmo wins because its hidden and the room are huge..they all have
balconies+Kitechens and are all very nice suites..You might pay a bit
extra but the hotel is worth it.
