The Best Areas & Different Areas in Torontos To Stay
BUT WAIT! Before we get into my top 22 AirBNBs in Toronto, I thought it would be helpful to give you a brief rundown of some of the major Downtown Toronto neighborhoods you’ll find on my list, and what you can find in each one…
- Fashion District: A century ago, this district was the home of many textile and fabric factories. From here, goods were easily shipped nationally and abroad. Nowadays, the Fashion District is a buzzing downtown neighborhood with its original warehouses and factories converted into cool apartments and lofts, artists galleries, trendy restaurants and studios and commercial offices.
- Entertainment District: It’s all in the name. Toronto’s Entertainment District is the #1 place to be for fun and entertainment. It’s got a great mix of adult entertainment and family-friendly attractions, like bars and clubs, entertainment venues, theatres, concert halls and even Ripley’s Aquarium of Canada. It’s also home to the famous CN Tower and the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF). To quote Almost Famous, “it’s all happening….”
- Garden District: Downtown Toronto’s Garden District is named after the neighborhood’s indoor botanical garden, but it has so much more to offer. The Garden District is home to the vibrant Toronto Gay Village, and a number of unique museums, galleries, theatres and even part of Toronto’s iconic Ryerson University.
- Distillery District: Officially named the Distillery Historic District, Downtown Toronto’s Distillery District is one of the most popular and buzzing neighborhoods in the whole of Canada. A pedestrian-only space, the Distillery District is a historical hotspot thanks to its early beginnings in the whiskey distillery scene. Its charming cobblestone streets are lined with hip restaurants, cafes, bars, galleries, theatres and quirky stores. There’s always live entertainment and Toronto’s huge Christmas Markets are set up in this neighborhood each December.
- Financial District: Toronto’s central business district, the Financial District is home to towering high-rises that are packed with bases for some of the biggest global companies across a range of industries. For visitors, the Financial District offers a huge array of great restaurants and one of the city’s biggest shopping areas – PATH. This underground mall of sorts spans 30km and housing 1200 shops. Hold me back!
- Yorkville: One of Toronto’s most upmarket districts, Yorkville is home to a range of leading Canadian museums and galleries, leafy public parks, and enticing bars and restaurants. Its jam-packed with designer apartments, exclusive stores and the famous “Mink Mile”. This strip is the 7th most expensive shopping street in the world! Move over Rodeo Drive.
- The Junction: Once its own city called West Toronto, The Junction is a family-friendly neighborhood with a great community atmosphere. It is known for having great schools, shopping centres, cafes, restaurants, galleries and unique craft breweries.

Review: “Our guides (there was a guide and a trainee) were knowledgeable, friendly, fun and courteous. We got to see parts of the city we hadn’t been to with our other activities. The guides didn’t just drag us here and there but gave us time to appreciate each location! The van was comfy and the entire experience was so much fun that we both rated it as our favorite activity of the trip!” – Kathleen, United States
