Read it your way

Four Seasons Hotel Toronto offers a luxury stay in Yorkville with sleek, neutral-toned rooms designed by Yabu Pushelberg. Guests highlight top-tier sleep quality on Signature Plush beds, large bathrooms with soaking tubs, and French dining at Cafe Boulud. However, the experience comes at a steep premium, with guests noting high costs for room rates, valet parking, and breakfast. 491510

Every line below traces back to something a traveler actually wrote — open a line to read the original sentence and follow it to the source.

What travelers noticed

  • Guests consistently praise the custom beds with temperature regulation technology and down duvets for delivering cloud-like sleep. 14
  • Expansive bathrooms earn high marks for their deep soaker tubs, standing showers, and lit mirrors with built-in TVs. 159
  • Reviewers love the Yorkville location, which puts guests steps from two subway lines, high-end shopping, and the ROM. 11
  • On-site dining at Cafe Boulud and d|bar lounge draws strong praise for quality French-inspired menus. 9

The catch

  • While most guests praise the sleek room aesthetic by Yabu Pushelberg, a critic considered the renovation cheap relative to the room rates. 4
  • The provided Etro Milano bath amenities satisfy most visitors, though some prefer alternative luxury brands like L'Occitane. 10

Who it's for

  • Yorkville shopping and cultural outings
  • Travelers prioritizing custom beds and deep tubs
  • Families seeking kid-friendly luxury amenities

Skip it if

  • Budget travelers avoiding add-on costs for parking and breakfast
  • Light sleepers placed on east-facing street sides

Bathroom

read from 1 source · Deep coverage
  • To say the bathroom was big would be an understatement - it literally must have been the size of my entire room, if not bigger, back in Hong Kong. 6
  • Spacious bathrooms are equipped with an artistically designed tub and standing shower. 15

Location

  • The Four Seasons is in a perfect location for what you are describing - much better than the Ritz Carlton, etc in terms of shops, bars, restaurants, the ROM, etc. 11
  • The neighborhood outside lives its own script, Yorkville stacked with galleries and fashion windows, museums within walking reach, streets lined with shaded terraces, all of it easy, all of it available, and the hotel at the center becomes an anchor and a stage, architecture that belongs to the city while sustaining its own intimacy. 8

Room

  • Needless to say, I was incredibly thrilled to have the opportunity to experience their deluxe suite on the 12th floor. Our suite was breathtaking; floor-to-ceiling windows, contemporary design, a spacious living room and a master bedroom that was to-die-for. 14
  • I loved the light teal tones used throughout the room. The muted color coupled with minimal decor gave the space a bit of a vintage vibe that I really enjoyed. 6

Service

  • Upon entering the hotel, you'll find that the lobby is modest yet sleek and the service is impeccable. 6
  • With service that makes everyone feel like royalty, it's no wonder they continue to set new standards in the hospitality industry. 14

Bed & Sleep

read from 1 source · Deep coverage
  • Not only was the bed at the Four Seasons nice and big, but the mattress was insanely comfortable and it literally felt like I was sleeping on a cloud. 6
  • And I had the best sleep of all my Toronto stays in the new Four Seasons Bed, with the Signature Plush topper: 10

  • Pre-covid, I always found Shangri-la had excellent value with their large suites, generous upgrades and fun lobby.... not sure what is going on these days. 13
  • New York superchef Daniel Boulud operates the pricey restaurant; newly reopened d|azur patio-with its massive pink mural by Ontario artist Florence Solis-Byun-feels a little more local. 4

Service8 mentions
  • There's also so much to be said for making kids feel happy and welcomed, and Four Seasons does this better than any other luxury hotel, from a plush animal friend and edible welcome treat to kid-size bathrobe, kids' menu, and how friendly the staff are with kids, even at urban, primarily business locations such as Four Seasons Toronto. 10
  • Door greeters, a huge smile plastered on their face, opened the front entrance doors for us with a friendly "welcome" and you can't help but smile back. 6
  • The hotel also has a great turndown service; when you return from a night out your pillows will be fluffed , the drapes will be pulled and your slippers and water will be placed bedside... 14
  • Aside from the excellent service, great location, and plush accommodations, it's worth checking in for the ultimate Four Seasons experience-right in the brand's hometown. 9
  • From the 50 foot fenced ceilings (the fence pattern is also replicated in its carpeting) to the dandelion displays throughout the hotel, the experience for the guest elicits a "wow" response. 4
  • Upon entering the hotel, you'll find that the lobby is modest yet sleek and the service is impeccable. 6
  • With service that makes everyone feel like royalty, it's no wonder they continue to set new standards in the hospitality industry. 14
  • Walking into the reception at the Four Seasons Spa was pleasant - the usual hello, I say my name, I have an appointment, welcome, you will be escorted, thank you, followed by a brief wait. 3
Food7 mentions
  • Four Seasons Toronto also has a stellar spa (the largest in Toronto) and is home to one of the city's best restaurants (read my detailed review of Café Boulud here) so we were perfectly content spending our entire staycation in the hotel. 14
  • I like the outdoor restaurant area at the Hazelton, but otherwise find the hotel too dark. 13
  • Breakfast in bed! We rarely indulge, but couldn't part from our cozy abode in the morning. The fresh pastries and yogurt parfait were divine. 14
  • Exceptional cuisine from a Michelin-starred chef at Cafe Boulud 15
  • With the addition of Daniel Boulud's restaurants, Cafe Boulud and dbar, Four Seasons has really raised the standard for luxury hotels in Toronto. 4
  • Despite the abundance of nearby restaurants, guests suggest enjoying a meal on premises; both Café Boulud and d|bar lounge offer French-inspired menus from Michelin-starred chef Daniel Boulud. 9
  • Although none of the rooms have balconies, the suites resemble celebrity apartments, with wall-sized windows, slick dining tables that seat eight guests, living rooms with artistic glass coffee tables, and couches stacked with satin pillows. 15
Bed & Sleep3 mentions
  • And I had the best sleep of all my Toronto stays in the new Four Seasons Bed, with the Signature Plush topper: 10
  • Not only was the bed at the Four Seasons nice and big, but the mattress was insanely comfortable and it literally felt like I was sleeping on a cloud. 6
  • Hi Camille! Yes the hotel bed was super comfy! 1
Value5 mentions
  • You will however pay: from the pricey (though spacious, comfortable, and high-tech) rooms to valet parking to breakfast. 15
  • The hotel opened on 9/15 and it's a cheaply done renovation that they're looking to recoup via higher room rates. 13
  • Pre-covid, I always found Shangri-la had excellent value with their large suites, generous upgrades and fun lobby.... not sure what is going on these days. 13
  • Minibars are stocked with expensive booze and standard candy bars. 15
  • New York superchef Daniel Boulud operates the pricey restaurant; newly reopened d|azur patio-with its massive pink mural by Ontario artist Florence Solis-Byun-feels a little more local. 4
Location9 mentions
  • Aside from the excellent service, great location, and plush accommodations, it's worth checking in for the ultimate Four Seasons experience-right in the brand's hometown. 9
  • The rest of the luxury hotels are either deeper in the downtown core or by the waterfront but the Four Seasons is steps away from both subway lines so getting around is super easy, it's technically on the edge of "Downtown Toronto" if you're taking a strict definition, but it won't feel isolated at all. 11
  • Yorkville is very upscale, it'll be a good location if you want to feel luxurious, that's for sure. 11
  • Located in Yorkville, it's the perfect spot to spend some time shopping and exploring the city. 6
  • You're in a great location to catch the ttc to almost any other neighbourhood you desire in the city. The FS is a wonderful hotel and even if you aren't a big spender, Yorkville is still a nice area! 11
  • You're in a great location to catch the ttc to almost any other neighbourhood you desire in the city. 11
  • The neighborhood outside lives its own script, Yorkville stacked with galleries and fashion windows, museums within walking reach, streets lined with shaded terraces, all of it easy, all of it available, and the hotel at the center becomes an anchor and a stage, architecture that belongs to the city while sustaining its own intimacy. 8
  • The Four Seasons is in a perfect location for what you are describing - much better than the Ritz Carlton, etc in terms of shops, bars, restaurants, the ROM, etc. 11
  • Prestigious Yorkville address close to posh shopping and restaurants 15
Bathroom4 mentions
  • Spacious bathrooms are equipped with an artistically designed tub and standing shower. 15
  • To say the bathroom was big would be an understatement - it literally must have been the size of my entire room, if not bigger, back in Hong Kong. 6
  • Bath products were Etro Milano, which I'll admit I don't care for as much as L'Occitane, but it's a personal preference. 10
  • The lighting in the bathroom was fantastic, but also showed every little eyebrow hair I missed when I looked a bit closer :P. 6
Room6 mentions
  • The presence of so many angles gives a high-end Scandinavian feel, though some of the furniture looks a little worn. 15
  • I loved the light teal tones used throughout the room. The muted color coupled with minimal decor gave the space a bit of a vintage vibe that I really enjoyed. 6
  • The property's rooms and suites - designed with elegant decor and modern amenities like an in-room iPad to access Four Seasons services and bathrooms equipped with deep soaking tubs - hold views of the downtown neighborhood's surrounding shops and cafes. 9
  • I definitely enjoyed having more open space and a glimpse of fall colors out the window, vs. staring at another building at the Trump Toronto: 10
  • As with most Four Seasons properties, the color palette is soft beige and neutrals. There's no clunky furniture in any of these spaces; everything is super-slick and blended, from the cabinets built as extensions to the walls to the space-age coffeemakers and iPads. 15
  • Needless to say, I was incredibly thrilled to have the opportunity to experience their deluxe suite on the 12th floor. Our suite was breathtaking; floor-to-ceiling windows, contemporary design, a spacious living room and a master bedroom that was to-die-for. 14
Noise1 mention
  • If you opt for the S-La and have a choice, choose a room or suite that faces west if you can. The east side faces University Ave, which is quite a busy street 24x7 and you will get a good deal of traffic noise. 13
