Booked the Royal Gold experience as a Christmas gift to ourselves. It was worth every penny. The ambiance, the facilities, the special lounge exclusively for Royal Gold clients. It was all lovely. Breakfast Was included, as well as afternoon tea, evening canapés and evening desert. There were also other bar and dining options but we never felt it necessary to partake of them. Plus, all of downtown Toronto’s attractions are literally right outside the door.

I’ve enjoyed the gold experience previously. Found it a relaxed get away. This visit the lounge was a busy place with business phone calls , conference calls etc. lots of voices. At breakfast all tables were occupied because many were lingering over business calls - we had to eat slumped at a couch. Good problems to have I know but I think I will try a different experience next time in Toronto.

Staff were very courteous and helpful, even when my room was not ready until 4:30pm. We were offered a free cocktail, which was perfect for after the show. Fabulous getaway!

Royal York truly a "royal" experience

This was my first stay at the Royal York and I am blown away by my experience. The hotel definitely lives up to its reputation. Staying on a Gold floor definitely added another level of luxury . The suite was outfitted with anything I could have possibly expected and more . The 18th floor lounge offers wonderful food and drink selections . The staff were helpful and very attentive . Not cheap but for a special occasion such as my 60th birthday, well worth the indulgence !

Not worth the money

I have mixed feeling about my Gold experience stay. The room was small and the view was terrible. There was no workspace. Many outlets were unusable. I had to use kettle on the bench as a table for it instead of the cabinet that was meant for this purpose. The guy who checked me in didn't tell me about the things I should have known about, such as the canapes that were happening right when I arrived. Nor the hot tubs or pool. He asked me if I was a new guest and I said yes so he should have explained these things. The first night, they didn't do turndown service and they didn't replenish the tea bags I used. The reason I bring this up is because we shouldn't have to ask for these expected basics. This is not a 3 star hotel and for the price we pay, things should be done without asking. The lounge was ok as were the offerings. I've had better at other fairmont hotels. When I explained a few of these things to one staff member, she wasn't surprised. She actually said there was new managers or something like that and things are not organized well. Yeah.. I see that. Was woken up at 2am due to the couple next door talking and then having sex. The walls are paper thin. I could actually hear the words they were saying it was so clear. Luckily it was only one night. The lobby restaurant was a disco party for my entire stay which was irritating. I'm not sure why they think this is acceptable. I definitely didn't spend any money there due to this. I won't be back!

The valet staff were great but the Gold (exclusive) check in was incredibly poor. It took 20 mins, the member of staff could not work the computer and was quite dismissive of our frustration. When we arrived at our room we were incredibly upset. It is tiny and the bathroom is minute. Absolutely not worth the money and really wish we had chosen the 4 Seasons instead. I spoke to the check in associate but he advised all rooms were the the same size (tiny) and they had many complaints. Bitterly disappointed and won’t be back.

I've stayed at the Fairmont before, but the Gold Experience adds a little extra special touch. While the room was an okay size, I found the little perks like private check-in, canapes, and a dedicated lounge, wonderful. The staff was super attentive and friendly as well. I definitely recommend giving the Gold Experience a try at least once, for a little getaway in the city.

Staff were friendly and went above and beyond! We opted for the gold experience package for our anniversary and Jason upgraded our room upon arrival, has champagne delivered to our room (complimentary) and looked after every detail.

Gold Level Experience

We’ve been staying at the Royal York for years, but this was our first trip since the renovations and first experience on their Gold Level. Overall, we were beyond impressed. Lobby is even more gorgeous than before (who knew that was even possible!) Suite was spectacular. The Gold Level was fantastic and well worth it. Evening snacks were average but breakfast was outstanding. The gold lounge is gorgeous and serene and a great place to relax. Staff were so friendly and accommodating, overall we felt very pampered and attended to. Felt very secure with all of the COVID precautions (temperature screen on arrival, no guest had stayed in room for at least 48hours prior). We are already looking forward to a future visit!
