During my four-day stay at Shangri-La Toronto, I experienced a mix of excellent amenities and frustrating service issues. The friendly staff and well-equipped gym impressed me, but I encountered several hiccups that detracted from the overall experience. Despite these challenges, I would consider returning based on the hotel's luxurious offerings and prime location.

My stay at Shangri-La Toronto had its ups and downs. While the staff were really good and made our experience nice, I encountered significant issues with amenities and room assignment. Ultimately, the attentive service rescued our overall experience, but the initial challenges left a mark on my visit.
