3. The Hazelton Hotel Toronto
Enter one of the property’s 65 rooms or 12 luxury suites and you’ll experience what previous guests praise most about the Hazelton: ample space. Rooms here are an average size of 620 square feet and feature amenities such as Nespresso makers, Juliet or walkout balconies and flat-screen TVs. The expansive bathrooms also come complete with TVs as well as L’Occitane bath products and separate soaking tubs and rain showers. The amenities outside of the rooms are also top-notch. The hotel houses its own private screening theater with leather chair seating for 25 people, as well as a spa perfect for pampering yourself. When you get hungry, try the hotel’s ONE Restaurant that features dishes from celebrity chef Mark McEwan. ONE serves French and Italian cuisine that recent diners described as well-priced for the quality. Plus, Yorkville’s shopping and high-end dining options sit just outside the Hazelton’s doors. Part of The Leading Hotels of the World, the property participates in the Leaders Club loyalty program.
4. Manoir Hovey
Nestled along Lake Massawippi’s shores – about 85 miles east of Montreal – Manoir Hovey impresses guests with its luxurious amenities and serene ambiance. Each room comes equipped with L’Occitane toiletries, flat-screen TVs and Nespresso coffee makers, but if you’re looking to inspire a little extra romance, spring for a treetops suite outfitted with a king-sized canopy bed and wood-burning fireplace. According to previous guests, swinging in a hammock or taking in the scenery by canoe both make for pleasant ways to while away warmer afternoons. During the winter, you can snowshoe and go cross-country skiing at the nearby Mont-Orford National Park. A meal at Le Hatley Restaurant, which serves locally sourced Quebec fare, is a must-visit according to previous patrons. For a more casual dining experience, head to the Tap Room Pub, which dishes up comfort dishes such as burgers and housemade french fries. Members of Relais & Châteaux’s exclusive Club 5C program may receive extras, such as room upgrades, for staying here.
