Located in the trendy Yorkville neighborhood of Toronto, the Park Hyatt Toronto is a great choice if you want to stay in the center of town, near many points of interest and within walking distance of great bars and restaurants.
Below you will find our honest account of what staying at the Park Hyatt Toronto is like, as well as tips on where to go and what to do if you choose to stay at this hotel.
Park Hyatt Toronto facts
The Park Hyatt Toronto is located at 4 Avenue Rd, Toronto, ON M5R 2E8.
It offers:
- Over 200 rooms and 40 suites
- 3 food options: Joni restaurant, Writers Room Bar (rooftop), and in-room dining service

Checking in/out of the Park Hyatt Toronto
Check in is 3pm and check out is 12pm, which is a bit later than many hotels. If you arrive early the hotel will store your bags at a minimum and will also accommodate you if your room is not available. Additionally, if you are a Hyatt Rewards program member, you can request a late check out. Becoming a Hyatt Rewards program member is free, and it provides great program loyalty perks – early check in, late check out, free breakfast (at the Globalist level) and more. We highly recommend it.
Rooms and Suites
The Park Hyatt Toronto offers very comfortable accommodations. We found the rooms and suites spacious and including everything you need for a comfortable stay. The bedding was of high quality, the bath towels soft and absorbent, and robes and slippers were also included. Additionally, the Nespresso machine was a great and convenient option for an early morning coffee. The suites include a separate living area with a couch, extra table and a second TV. Excellent stay!
Additionally, the rooms provide great views of downtown Toronto.
Dining Options
- Joni Restaurant – we dined multiple times at Joni and had excellent impressions of both the food and the service. The food was very fresh, delicious and beautifully presented. The restaurant didn’t seem busy and so it didn’t seem that you need a reservation. However, you can book a table at their website to guarantee your time preference.
Writers Room Bar – considered one of the best rooftop bars in Toronto, the Writers Room Bar was a great place to grab a drink and some food, whether at lunch, dinner, or late into the night. Reservations are highly recommended if you would like to get a table in the evenings and on weekends as the Writers Room is a very popular bar with locals and tourists alike.
We found the drinks and the food to be really good. Be sure to try some of the Canadian wines on the menu, especially those from the Niagara Falls region. Grab a table outside for spectacular views of Toronto both during the day or in the evening.
