3-4 stars. I’m giving 4 stars because we were sent a fruit platter and sincere apologies for our bad check-in experience and we had amazing service at the Miraj Hammam spa as always. If not for that I’d give 3 stars because it just didn’t feel like 5 star service or amenities this time. The room had tv remotes that were barely working (buttons were very unresponsive) and the drape/sheer button kept not working either. In the reception, staff never greeted us as we came and went like they did last time we stayed here, wowing us with their care and a bottle of water each time we passed through. This time we felt ignored and like the staff was not happy to be there. Nobody asked us if we were celebrating anything or made any effort to ensure we had an amazing stay. This sounds nit picky but you expect these little details from a 5 star hotel. We went for dinner at the Ritz Carlton and receive the 5 star service which thankfully made our special baby moon weekend amazing! Next time we’ll try staying at the Ritz.

5 Stars!! Our recent stay at the Shangri-La Toronto was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we arrived until the moment we left, every detail was thoughtfully handled, and the experience exceeded all expectations. Each staff member we interacted with was incredibly considerate and attentive. Whether it was the front desk, concierge, or housekeeping, every person made us feel genuinely welcomed and valued. Their professionalism and warmth made our stay feel personal and seamless. The room was impeccably clean upon arrival, and the daily cleaning service maintained that high standard throughout our stay. Fresh linens, spotless surfaces, and a consistently tidy space added to the overall comfort and luxury of our time there. Check-in and check-out were both a breeze—quick, efficient, and entirely hassle-free. It’s clear the team is highly trained and dedicated to making the process as smooth as possible. We truly have no complaints. Everything was handled with care and elegance, and we left feeling completely relaxed and well taken care of. We highly recommend Shangri-La Toronto to anyone looking for a luxurious, comfortable, and thoughtful hospitality experience in the heart of the city.
