<\/h3>\n<\/h3>\nCheck-in to a hotel that will\u00a0position you near all the must-dos and must-sees of the city. Your time is precious so you don\u2019t want to spend more time than you have to travelling around Toronto. One King West Hotel & Residence Hotel & Residence<\/a> is in the heart of the city at the corner of Yonge and King Streets<\/a>. Not only is the location ideal for all the best attractions, but also for modern-day conveniences such as subway, streetcar and train stations so getting anywhere is as convenient as it gets. Because of its direct access to these transportation hubs, we suggest taking\u00a0a\u00a0public mode of transportation instead of driving as both traffic and parking can cause a bit of a headache in the downtown core.<\/p>\n If you\u2019re looking for a spacious, home-inspired suite<\/a>, we suggest a Historic Superior<\/a>. But, if you\u2019re hoping for great views of the city or lake, we suggest a Tower Suite, such as the Deluxe<\/a> or Premium<\/a> which feature spectacular \u2018views of the 6ix\u2019.<\/p>\n Check-in is at 3pm so plan to arrive anytime around then, and if you happen to be early and want to explore the neighbourhood a bit, you are welcome to leave your belongings with the Concierge.<\/p>\n Once you\u2019re all checked-in and have made yourself at home in the modern home-inspired suites<\/a>, head down to Teller\u2019s Bar and Lounge<\/a> and enjoy a drink or two and some delicious appetizers before hitting the town. The atmosphere is vibrant and the perfect way to start your trip to Toronto. Plus, the artisanal cocktails, specifically the Smoked Old Fashion, are quite popular among our guests.<\/p>\n Terroni<\/a> serves some of the most authentic, delicious Italian food you will find in Toronto and is a favourite spot for locals. They pride themselves in their dedication to sourcing the right products to ensure the quality of their dishes\u00a0is uncompromised and you can taste that at first bite. We suggest making a reservation as they seem to be busy every night!<\/p>\n If you\u2019re not too tired from your day of travel, OR too full from the delicious Italian food you just feasted on, head to The Rec Room<\/a>. The Rec Room is the perfect place for that kid in all of us. It combines arcade games, drinks and food all under one roof in the heart of the city and is a guaranteed great time.<\/p>\n Teller’s Bar<\/a>, located in the hotel lobby, offers a spread of delicious breakfast eats perfect to fuel you for\u00a0the busy day ahead. Everything from scrambled eggs, fresh fruit, bacon, cheeses, cured meats, yogurts, granola\u00a0and more; you can choose from an array of mouth-watering hot or cold items!<\/p>\n If you don\u2019t visit the CN Tower<\/a> during your trip to Toronto, then what\u2019s the point? Start the day with a trip up to the top of the Tower when it\u2019s less busy and admire their new observation deck. For their 42nd<\/sup> birthday they revealed their new level, LookOut, which feature floor-to-ceiling windows and views of the city from 360\u00b0. And why not purchase their \u2018Sea The Sky\u2019 package<\/a> and get tickets to another top Toronto attraction, Ripley\u2019s Aquarium<\/a>? Explore the waters of the world in the heart of the city featuring 16,000 aquatic animals, 450 species and over 100 interactive displays!<\/p>\n Assembly Chef\u2019s Hall<\/a> is a market consisting of 17 of Toronto\u2019s top chefs, restauranteurs and baristas and is Canada\u2019s first chef-driven community market. Although, fair warning, you may have trouble when choosing which vendor to get your lunch from so we suggest getting several dishes from a few places and sharing!<\/p>\n In 2014, Vogue named Queen Street West<\/a> the second-hippest district in the world so it\u2019s no wonder that a 48-hour trip to Toronto would be incomplete without a visit to this\u00a0area of the city. Find an array of eclectic shops, restaurants, caf\u00e9s and more along this main Toronto street. Plus, in this direction you\u2019ll come across Graffiti Alley<\/a>. Graffiti Alley is a must-visit and provides the perfect background for an Instagram-worthy photo to mark your 48-hours in Toronto.<\/p>\n Pai<\/a> is top on our list of restaurants to dine at while in Toronto because it provides a unique experience and authentic Thai food which is hard to come across in the city. All the dishes have been crafted by Executive Chef Nuit who originated from Pai, a small town in northern Thailand.<\/p>\n Among the many theatres in Toronto, there\u2019s always an exciting play, musical or comedy show happening. Whether a show\u00a0at the Princess of Wales<\/a> or Elgin and Winter Garden<\/a> Theatre, we suggest getting tickets to one and enjoying some real-life entertainment.<\/p>\n There\u2019s never a dull moment at St. Lawrence Market<\/a>. Head there for your breakfast or brunch and not only will you find delicious eats, but rows and rows of vendors all offering unique and interesting products. St. Urbain Bagel, Carousel Bakery or Crepe It Up are some vendors serving\u00a0great brunch eats.<\/p>\n *Before you head out for another exciting day in Toronto, you can check-out and leave your luggage with the Bell Desk while you explore, baggage-free!<\/em><\/p>\n The Distillery District<\/a> will always be on our list of things to do in the city, and it\u2019s no exception even when you only have 48-hours in Toronto. Find great boutique shops, cute caf\u00e9s and art stores while roaming this historical district\u2019s cobblestone streets.<\/p>\n While in the Distillery District, head to the popular El Catrin<\/a>, which features very yummy traditional and modern Mexican dishes. Whether you sit inside or outside on their beautiful patio, the combination of the delicious food and vibrant atmosphere guarantees a great experience.<\/p>\n For your final afternoon in Toronto, head down to the city\u2019s Harbourfront. You can stroll along the waterfront and take a boat cruise on Lake Ontario, providing sweeping views of the city. The\u00a0Kajama<\/a> offers a unique experience as it\u2019s on a traditional 165-foot Schooner and serves food and drinks during the 2-hour expedition.<\/p>\n![\"hotel](\"https:\/\/www.onekingwest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/TDLX-Tower-Deluxe-Layout-C-2-650x433.jpg\")
