The famed Fairmont Royal York is a luxury hotel located in Toronto’s downtown core. Seated in the heart of Toronto, the Fairmont serves as a pillar of an essential Toronto vacation. Nearby attractions and landmarks include Meridian Hall performing arts complex, Ripley’s Aquarium of Canada, and the CN Tower.
The Fairmont is also close to mind-bending Toronto attractions that teeter on the edge of eccentricity. The Elgin and Winter Garden Theatres are the world’s last operating Edwardian stacked theater and is draped in botanical décor. You can book a 90-minute guided tour on Mondays and Saturdays or opt to catch a show. Casa Loma is another rare landmark worth touring.
