4 tips for savvy savings when booking a hotel in Toronto

  1. Book for the cheapest times: The most affordable time to visit Toronto is during January, February, and December, when hotel prices tend to be lower. For a budget-friendly trip that allows you to fully appreciate the city's landmarks, history, and culture, a stay of at least 3 to 4 days is recommended. During your visit, you can explore impressive skyscrapers, renowned museums, vibrant theatre, and delightful dining options, all of which offer great value for money. This timeframe may also provide opportunities for lower prices on various attractions, making it an excellent choice for those looking to enjoy Toronto without overspending.
  2. Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: To uncover last-minute deals to Toronto, consider exploring the DealsOpens in a new window or Last-Minute Deals sections on Hotels.com, where you may discover discounted hotel rates as your travel date approaches. Additionally, enabling email alerts or push notifications from Hotels.com could keep you informed about flash sales and special last-minute promotions. This way, you're more likely to seize opportunities for savings. The Smart Shopping tool available via the app allows you to compare hotel prices and amenities, ensuring you’re notified if rooms become available or prices drop, making your last-minute getaway easier to book.
  3. Be flexible with dates: Prices can fluctuate based on factors such as the hotel's location, star rating, and the time of year, so being flexible with your travel dates may help you save on your stay in a Toronto hotel. For those seeking distinctive experiences, boutique hotels can provide a more personalised atmosphere and occasionally offer better value. When you book through Hotels.com, we’ll inform you whether the price for your chosen dates is above or below the average. If the price is on the higher end, we’ll suggest alternative dates that could be more affordable, helping you to potentially secure a better deal.
  4. Consider your location: Hotels situated near the city centre usually tend to be more expensive; however, with Toronto’s excellent public transport connections, you might discover a more affordable independent hotel a bit further out that remains well linked. For those keen to explore alternative, less populated neighbourhoods or even lesser-known nearby towns, there is often excellent value for money to be found. Opting for these alternative destinations could provide a more authentic and budget-friendly experience.
