I was invited to dinner on Saturday night and was treated to a queen-size feast and a special tour of the kitchen. Given the attention to detail in every other aspect of my stay, I was hardly surprised to find that the main restaurant maintained the same levels of excellence. The scrumptious food at Stock is served with love, passion, and a warm smile. I could have spent hours at the Quartz Crystal Spa, but alas, my flight back to LA was calling my name. My bamboo massage on Sunday morning was heavenly. At least I know next time I don’t have to torment my hair with that useless contraption that is typically found mounted on the wall and literally has only one function: to make noise. There was a REAL hairdryer in the bathroom - yay! But I still brought my own Elchim. Loved the Gatsby-esque touches dotted throughout the hotel. While in the room, I pretty much lived in the comfy monogrammed robes. Views from our one-bedroom suite on the 28th floor were stunning, especially at night - Toronto illuminated in all its glory.
TRUMP TOWER HOTEL FREE
In today’s day and age, it’s baffling to me how hotels still think it’s acceptable to charge for Internet, but Trump Toronto is certainly up with the times and offers free WiFi throughout the entire property, including all the rooms. Stocking luxe Trump-brand products, the toiletries certainly met with my approval. Didn’t feel like peeling myself away from the luxurious goose-down comforter. The king-size bed was as comfortable as can be. Every luxury hotel needs to pay attention to these small, but impactful upgrades.
TRUMP TOWER HOTEL TV
The ceiling mount rain showerhead is always a pleasure and was one of my favorite features of the room (along with the mirror TV in the bathroom). When I first walked into the room - a personalized note and a tray of chocolate and other edible treats were waiting for me. From the front desk to room service to the concierge, I was met with nothing but smiles and helpful attitudes. I ordered room service, and the food arrived within 10 minutes. I forgot my iPhone 5 charger, and a spare one was brought up to my room within minutes. The champagne and caviar color scheme was a feast for the eyes - ultra glamorous. Both check-in and check-out were a breeze. I wanted a late check-out and it was no problem. The concierge was extremely helpful and made all our reservations easily and quickly. The location is perfect - nestled in the heart of the city in downtown. I received a few reminders of the possible services that would be available to me during my stay and was also asked a few times if I needed to make any reservations beforehand. There was lots of engagement through email and social media before and during my stay. Not even the miles-long Customs line at the airport could have dimmed the glory of my perfect weekend getaway. But between the gorgeous mélange of light and dark and the gleaming marble crystal and glass, I was truly hard-pressed to find fault during my weekend stay.įrom a seamless check-in to a limousine transfer to the airport, I walked away feeling refreshed, pampered, and content–exactly what I had hoped for. My personal feelings for the man aside, I have to hand it to Donald Trump when it comes to hotels - the man certainly knows luxury! It’s quite rare (read: practically never happens) that I have almost nothing negative to say about a hotel, even the best of the best. I always felt Trump’s properties walked the thin line of tacky and ultra-luxury, but I appreciated the tasteful elegance that echoed throughout this property. Having stayed at a few Trump properties before, I had a pretty good idea about the high caliber of service and incredible attention to detail that await me.

I was looking forward to a weekend of pampering, culinary indulgences, and culture.

I was pleasantly surprised to find out that my stay coincided with the annual Nuit Blanche - an all-night arts festival. In hopes of a much-needed vacation, I headed over to Toronto for a few days and stayed at the Trump International Hotel & Tower.
