The 15 best gay-friendly hotels in Montreal can be found scattered around four primary areas. Two of these areas, Yorkville and Downtown, surround the gayborhood of Church-Wellesley Village, while the other is near the former gayborhood of Queen West. And the best news for our gay partiers is that gay hotel Toronto options, like the Holiday Inn Toronto Downtown Centre and Sonder The Wellesley, are within stumbling distance of the gay bars.
One of the great things about the range of hotels in Toronto is that there’s something for every budget and preference. For luxury travelers, gay hotel Toronto options include the Canadian chain Fairmont, the Four Seasons, and a Park Hyatt. There are several four- and three-star hotels right in the Church-Wellesley Village gayborhood. Property sizes range from Canada’s largest hotel with over 1,500 rooms to a cute boutique stay with just ten—perfect for those who prefer their hotel experience a little more intimate.
Probably due to the climate—it can drop to a frosty 5°C (23°F) in winter—pools are a rare find in gay hotel Toronto options. The few that exist are indoor and heated, but don’t get too excited—some only open in summer.
On the bright side, Toronto is ridiculously pet-friendly. Almost every hotel rolls out the welcome mat for furry friends, and some gay hotel Toronto spots even let them stay for free—because why should only humans get VIP treatment?
Toronto doesn’t have any gay-owned or gay-operated hotels, but that’s hardly a problem—this city has been rolling out the rainbow carpet for gay travelers for decades.
If you’re looking for a gay hotel Toronto stay with a side of giving back, the Fairmont Royal York Hotel stands out by donating CAD$10 to Pride Toronto for every guest booking. Stay in style and support the cause—it’s a win-win!
Toronto has two gayborhoods, one former and one current. The former, Queen West is now more of an arty, bohemian, alternative area with bars like the Bovine Sex Club, ones to visit.
The current gayborhood of Church-Wellesley Village is perfectly wedged between Yorkville and Downtown—aka the two hotspots with the most gay hotel Toronto options. And with a whole strip of gay bars lining Church Street, bar hopping is basically a citywide sport.
Yorkville is the city’s cultural hub, home to upscale shopping and dining, plus landmarks like Queens Park and the Royal Ontario Museum (ROM). Downtown stretches down to Toronto Harbor, which meets Lake Ontario, where day tours to the Toronto Islands set sail. This area also boasts major tourist hotspots like the CN Tower and the Art Gallery—perfect for squeezing in some sightseeing between nights out.
