The Strathcona Hotel
by tpalThe Strathcona Hotel meets our requirements on all accounts. Carol and I have stayed there four times in the last three years, so we are very confident about our recommendation.
The hotel is located on York Street at the corner of Wellington Street W, in the heart of downtown. Nearly across the street is the Fairmont Royal York Hotel, a five star, luxury hotel with an international reputation...and a rate schedule to match. It is also within easy walking distance to Union Station and the Metro stop, The CN Tower and the Skydome, numerous restaurants and...a Tim Horton's Donuts across the street.
The hotel lobby is small but attractive and the hotel cafe is located directly off the lobby. The rooms are clean, fresh and comfortable. The one disadvantage is that the hotel does not have its own parking but there is a public parking lot about two blocks away which is reasonable. Check out the web site below for detailed information and photos.
One important note...online rates are considerably less than rates quoted when contacting the hotel directly.
Note: Price range below is for "Double Occupancy Per Person"
