THE QUAY TO A GOOD VISIT

THE QUAY TO A GOOD VISIT
Making Waves Boatel is Toronto & Ontario's only boat motel.
And it's been rated as one of the best boat hotels in the world!
Although location is key (Queen's Quay West, to be exact) the real reason to LOVE this BOAT is that Captain Ted and Diane offer completely comfortable cabins and high-class hospitality.
And an egg-cellent breakfast prepared with TLC!
In short, it's a better B&B.
Did I mention that my stay here was very comfortable and convenient?
It's close to downtown Toronto - minutes away from CN Tower, Union Station, Rogers Centre and Ripley's Aquarium.
Not to mention Billy Bishop Airport and the Toronto Islands.
And you can easily get there by TTC streetcar.
But - because you're on the waterfront - you don't FEEL like you're downtown.
You feel like you're on holiday!
How good is it?
So good that they don't do Air B&B.
I'd love to stay there again and recommend it to anyone who appreciates the personal touch.

Excellent

Location: Just west of the financial district and 200 yards of public transport. CN tower an easy walk. Hosts Captain Ted & Diane: These are two of the most wonderful hosts you’ll ever meet. Diane sat with me to go over all the key points of Toronto interest. She’s also a bit of a Toronto historian as a bonus. Food: As the pictures show the freshly and basically individually prepared breakfast was marvelous! General: The boat is clean and well organized, rooms are spacious with the beds being comfortable.

Boatel in downtown Toronto

Great stay with Diane and Ted. They welcome you onto their boat and make you feel right at home. Close to everything in downtown Toronto but yet tucked away in a quiet section dockside. Single room is small but all you need since you can sit anywhere on the boat and watch the activities on the water and planes coming in to Billy Bishop airport. Best sleep I have had in a long time as the boat gently rocks you to sleep. Dianne makes a spectacular breakfast! Would definitely return again.

Home away from home.

The most relaxed environment you can ever imagine, but yet steps away from the heart of Toronto. Highly recommend for those looking to avoid the impersonal experience of staying at a downtown hotel. Diane and Capt. Ted are very gratious and welcoming to their home, and are very accomodating. Sitting on the top deck at night with a refreshment while taking in the sights of the Toronto skyline is relaxation at its best. Specially prepared breakfast in the morning is an event. We thank Diane and Ted for allowing us to share their home.
