Fodor's Expert Review Chelsea Hotel

33 Gerrard St., Toronto, Ontario, M5G 1Z4, Canada

Canada's largest hotel has long been popular with families and tour groups, so be prepared for a flurry of activity. The Family Fun Zone has a children's creative center, the Club 33 Teens lounge, a family pool, and the four-story "Corkscrew"—downtown Toronto's only indoor waterslide (nonparents, don't fret—there's also an adults-only pool). Babysitting services are also offered through the Kid Centre. The hotel offers deluxe guest rooms, as well as one- and two-bedroom suites with kitchenettes, and several grab-and-go food options in the lobby if you don't feel like cooking.
