This is Canada's largest hotel with 1,590 rooms located in the heart of downtown Toronto so 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐰𝐚𝐥𝐤 𝐭𝐨 𝐚𝐧𝐲𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 ✅ I stayed here to attend a conference and found the rooms to be nice and spacious

𝐀𝐫𝐞𝐚: Niagara Falls

𝐆𝐨𝐨𝐝 𝐟𝐨𝐫: families, budget-friendly travellers, pretty much everyone

I stayed in the Junior Suite King Bed Room and it was both much larger than expected and extremely well-lit. Most of the hotels in Niagara are pretty old, so it was nice to have a 𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐨𝐯𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐨𝐫 at Vittoria 💡

I really recommend this hotel especially if you're visiting Niagara during the summer—the Hilton is one of the tallest hotels in Niagara so you know you're going to get those VIEWS of the falls!!!

𝐆𝐨𝐨𝐝 𝐟𝐨𝐫: EVERYTHING. This is one of my favourite hotels ever!!

I stayed in the King Bed Room and the experience was truly 11/10. The building was spotless, and even the lobby washroom smelled like a spa 🌸 I need to know what mattresses the Hyatt uses because I slept like a baby—𝐰𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 100% 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐲 𝐚𝐠𝐚𝐢𝐧

This 4-𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫 𝐡𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐥 is near two large shopping malls and McGill University. I personally liked the Hyatt (above) more because it’s closer to Old Montreal, but it was awesome to experience a luxury hotel 💫

𝐀𝐫𝐞𝐚: Longueuil

𝐆𝐨𝐨𝐝 𝐟𝐨𝐫: budget-friendly, travellers with vehicles

Only a 10-minute drive away from Montreal, this super affordable hotel was a lovely stay when I went! Almost all of the hotels in the main Montreal area required paid parking of $30+, so the 𝐟𝐫𝐞𝐞 𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 at Sandman was very much appreciated!

A little more expensive than the Sandman Hotel, but also a great choice if you're trying to find a balance between quality and price! Their valet parking was very clutch; parking in Montreal can be quite a headache.
