Like most large cities in Canada, Toronto is an expensive place to stay. Hotels in the downtown area are convenient, but most come at a high price. Motels in Toronto make a good alternative for budget travelers. Only a short drive from top tourist attractions, motels provide free parking, and are close to city transport, giving you the freedom to avoid Toronto's costly parking and busy traffic.
