 | Marriott Toronto Downtown Eaton Center: Shopping Convenience
|  |
 |
|
 |
The rooms here are pretty much similar to those in any downtown Mariott - that is, after all, the beauty of staying in a chain hotel. In fact, much of what you will find here is standard, although the area around the Eaton Centre and thus the Mariott is not the greatest in terms of night-time strolls. Although violence on the Yonge Street corridor is largely overblown, the other streets around the hotel (Bay and Dundas between Yonge and University) can be pretty deserted after dark or on weekends, so just be aware of your surroundings. Only those rooms high up will have good views, as every building in this part of Toronto is some sort of skyscraper.
The Toronto Mariott Downtown Eaton Centre is one of those cozily placed hotels that abuts a large shopping centre. It is conveniently located near the Sear flagship store (and thus close to the Dundas subway station) and only steps from the City Hall and Nathan Philips Square. This is an ideal location for anyone coming to Toronto for New Years, as you are steps away from not only the main city festivities, but also close to the club district (Adelaide and Richmond between University and Peter) - although probably not walking distance in the deep freeze of winter. If you're here during the summer and on a weekend, consider the pretty patio restaurant of the hotel for brunch. Bay Street is unlikely to be busy on off-business hours, so you can be assured of a quiet meal.
