Better than I could have hoped for!!
The Pantages Suites and Spa has everything you'd expect from an upscale metropolitan hotel:
Excellent location, it's less than a city block from Eatons Center and fabulous Younge Street, as well as being near several restaurants, bars and nightlife.
Gorgeous Views, the suites feature panoramic windows for tons of natural light and stunning city views on all sides. (the Penthouse suite I stayed in featured over 50 square feet of window space!)
Suites feature natural hardwood floors or immaculate white carpeting, full European kitchens (featuring microwave, full sized-fridge w/mini-bar, toaster, stove-top, dishes, pots & pans, dishwasher, etc.)
The maid service is excellent. The staff is very friendly, and they have an eye for every little detail.
Privacy and security are a priority, you require a hotel key-card to access all accommodation floors.
The Spa & water bar (featuring over 300 types of water, and expert sommeliers to recommend waters for your particular taste!)
are exquisite, and the staff are happy to make the best of your experience. (Prices are also very competitive)
From the time you walk into the lobby with it's upscale lounge atmosphere, until you enter your room, featuring either a Zen motif or that of a modern downtown condominium, you'll feel right at home.
The larger suites are perfect for long business stays, I felt very at home for the 2 weeks I stayed there last. There is wireless & DSL internet in-room, as well as public computers in the lobby. (With curtains for your privacy while reading e-mail or sensitive documents)
The mini-bar prices are very reasonable and feature very unique selections.
24 hour room service is available, and there is a Martini bar in the Lobby every evening.
I've stayed in several of Toronto's upscale and boutique hotels, and this reasonably priced Spa & all Suites, beats them all hands-down. Barring some unforeseen circumstances, I can't imagine myself staying anywhere else in the GTA.
There is honestly not a single thing I disliked about this hotel, I'd recommend it to anyone.
Enjoy!
