Holiday Inn Express Toronto - North York

What is your IHG Rewards Club status?
Platinum.

Were you (or for multi-stayers are you generally) happy with the hotel/stay?
Fine.

Which room did you book and which upgrade did you receive?
Booked King, received same on upper floor.

How are the rooms?
+ 7th floor has modern & updated furniture & large 32” LCD TV
+ Some channels black, no reception all four days, including CNN, the only main 24/7 news channel
+ 8m deep x 3.5m wide, on par with a typical HI

How is the exec. lounge?
N/A

What was good and what was bad?
Good:
+ Heavenly bed
+ Short drive to Canada’s Wonderland & Downsview Park
+ Above-average HIX breakfast selection

Bad:
- Poor soundproofing of main door; hear hallway & door slams starting at 6am
-Slow, obsolete elevators
- Jane & Finch is one of the most dangerous areas in Toronto; will need a car to get around (walk/bus/subway to downtown Toronto would take 1½ hours)

- Value for $ or IHG Rewards Club Points? Would you return?
At $109, a decent price.
