TORONTO, Canada – Bigger or more expensive isn’t always better, at least when it comes to hotels favored by travelers in Canada.

TORONTO, Canada – Bigger or more expensive isn’t always better, at least when it comes to hotels favored by travelers in Canada. Travel experts used customer submissions to find the hotels with the highest overall rankings in the most popular domestic and international cities for Canadians.

“Guest reviews are a helpful resource for travellers and studies have shown 72 percent of consumers trust them as much as personal recommendations,” says Taylor L. Cole, APR, travel expert at Hotels.com. “Our reviews are verified and can only be submitted after the guest has completed their stay, so customers get genuine insights into the properties.

Interestingly, when traveling within Canada, smaller hotels rated higher than large-scale chains. Looking at the highest overall guest ranked property in popular cities throughout Canada, guests gave two bed and breakfasts, Auberge le Voyageur B&B in Mont-Tremblant and Suite Dreams Toronto Bed & Breakfast, the top spot with a perfect overall ranking of 5.0. This was closely followed by another QC-based property, Le Petit Hotel in Montreal with 4.9.
