I booked this hotel for a couple of days stay,the rooms looked great and spacious ,with a 24 hour concierge and it offered Spa services,just ,before l check in the hotel I received texts from a person giving me instructions on how to get in the building,and at a different location.The room we got was very small and not at all like the one I booked ,also the bed is small ,no much space for two people this is disappointing because I was not notified of the changes and I didn’t get what I paid for,was a very busy weekend in the city,so couldn’t find another hotel Don’t recommend this one

Very nice balcony, easy to use temperature system for cooling and Heat. Cleaning was completed before arrival. It was clean and comfortable. However, Shower curtain was yellow with dirt, bedroom carpets were stained. No laundry machine as advertised. Sofa, kitchen, bathroom and floors were well maintained. The condo is nice. Very convenient for getting to local dining, shopping, entertainment and hospitals. Easy communication via text with staff members. Very prompt, helpful and informative.
Nice night view!
Can see the trains from the bedroom.
Situated above the go train system. Great for train enthusiast.

They changed my reservation last minute to a different location, and so there was some confusion with the check in information. Had to talk to two different parties to figure out out. The apartment was clean and well appointed. The A/C ran the entire time, but never cooled it below 22.0 C. Location was very convenient for exploring downtown.

This property was EXCEPTIONAL!! Great location, very clean! I hipe to stay here again when I return to toronto. Host communication was wonderful as well. The in unit laundry was a life saver. Anything and everything you could possibly imagine was in walking distance. My only downside was the checkout process. We almost got stuck in the building, as the elevator only works with the key fob, which we had to leave in the unit when we left. Otherwise is was perfection. Safe. Secure. Parking garage was awesome, and convenient. 10/10 would recommend this listing. Very appreciative of this gracious host and their condominium.

The booking was changed last moment ( the morning of our travel, and we were given an apartment which as per the email was an “upgrade” but it was not. We had booked for 4 people but the sleeping arrangements were poor. The main bed was good enough only for 2 and the cheep ikea pull out couch was broken and my son couldn’t sleep well. I slept on the floor so that my spouse and the other child can sleep on the main bed. The furnitures were broken and terrible. We paid 400$ for the night at its was no good . I will not be going back.

While I'd love to share a review on Lanterra Downtown in Yonge St, this is not possible as our reservation was changed at the last minute to a different property. Despite booking about three months ago, we were informed just days before check-in that the property we had selected was "double booked". Really? We were instead given an "upgrade" to 21 Iceboat Terrace, some distance away. It did have a fabulous view but the apartment itself was more shabby than chic. The bedroom carpet was badly stained, the vertical blinds were broken and the pillows way beyond their use-by date. It also lacked the laundry I'd wanted after five weeks away from home. When the key fob wouldn't operate in the lift, we had to rely on a kindly security guard to let us up to the 23rd floor after dinner. Efforts to contact a Lanterra rep to fix this were ignored. This last-minute switch tactic has never happened to me in all my years of booking through Expedia. Disappointing to say the least. Beware of the eleventh-hour "upgrade"!

We found the process of gaining access to the unit. The concierge we less than helpful at times. The key fob to use the elevator was not functional. Told the Rental people and there was no response. So we had to Go to the front desk each time we entered the property and explain to the front desk the fob did not work. Each different person handled it differently, One made us go and try it several times, another showed us what to do with their fob and when ours didn't work finally just told the elevator to let us up from the front desk. When we left we could not get out of the garage. had to go to the front desk and get the lady to watch us on camera to get out or we would have to go up to the 29th floor and get the fob to let us out. In the garage a gentleman told us to exit the other garage door which opens automatically. No one told us any of this. Communicating with the vendor was confusing. Had to sign back into the expedia account every time to message them, Finally they were sending email, and even that was a bit goofy looking of an email. You have to reply in the text of the message , if you hit the reply button you will get re routed and have to sign in again. It's 2025 for gosh sake. Unit was okay. very small bedoom Double bed .not a true queen. Had to walk sideways to get to other side of bed.
