This hotel was "okay," given the discounted rate I got through Expedia. But, had I booked directly and paid their full daily rate I would have been disappointed. Rooms in this hotel are very small and very basic. The "suites" are about the size of standard room in "better" hotels. They won't guarantee a non-smoking room if you don't book... more

My girlfriend and I stayed here on New Year's Eve 2008. First of all, there is really no reliable parking at the hotel. The closest parking is on the street, which the hotel workers didn't recommend because f Toronto's notorious fetish for towing cars. We had a park underground in a ramp in a not at all well lit/nice looking... more

Isabella Hotel and Suites is located on the corner of Sherbourne and Isabella Streets in Downtown Toronto. Driving down Sherbourne from the main expressway certainly had us concerned as it is a very rough neighborhood with lots of graffiti and homeless people. The neighborhood seems to improve as you get to the Isabella. We chose a room with a queen... more

We stayed at Isabella during our recent visit to Toronto. The hotel is clean, convenient and affordable. However, the staff wasn't very helpful nor did it seem like they knew what they were doing. When we arrived, they lost our room and parking reservation because their system crashed. Luckily they had a room available for us - but we didn't... more

Stayed for a week for the Film Fest and the price was reasonable for that over-inflated time of year. The first room I was put in felt like a prison cell as it only had one small high window. Luckily the staff were extremely helpful and I was moved to another room which was fine. The hotel was clean throughout... more

We just got back from a weekend stay in Toronto, where we stayed at the Isabella Hotel and Suites. Overall, we enjoyed our stay. The hotel is very nice looking from the outside, a pretty building with a nice patio for sitting outside and enjoying a drink (which you can do, as there is a bar in the lobby). It... more

Neighborhood could use some TLC but the subway is close as is Bloor street, cabbagetown neighborhood is about a 1/2 hour walk away. Room was clean but tiny as was the bath, and elevator had to be taken one at a time when coming and going with bags. Quiet at night ... if your staying soon beware of construction across... more

Based on other reviews on this site, we knew that one fault at this hotel has been that some people couldn't get the grade of room on check-in that they had booked in advance. We were arriving late on a Friday night, so we made a point of telephoning a few days before to confirm that we would be arriving,... more

The Isabella has a bus on the corner and a subway three blocks away that takes you everywhere quickly and easily. The continental breakfast is more than adequate and the informal breakfasting arrangements, with newspapers always available, create a pleasant start for the day. Our room was clean, quiet and comfortable, with plenty of storage space. Desk staff were friendly... more
