The Lowther Suites are beautiful and well kept. The location is excellent - a quiet street but very close to Bloor for restaurants, subway, and such. Very close to excellent running paths. The two bedroom suite was perfect for my family. We would definitely stay again!

We selected the Lowther Suites when we came to Canada for our son's wedding. It was ideal and a much friendlier base than a hotel. It was in a great area and meant we could relax as a family. It was clean, modern and very well equipped.

The stay at Lowther Suites was great. Central location, close to the subway, very nice having a full apartment to stay in.
Didn't want to leave then it was time to go home. :)
I certainly will look first at Lowther Suites for lodging next time I'm in Toronto.

Dear Charles,
We really enjoyed our stay at the Lowther Suites, could not fault it at all! It's in a lovely quiet area yet only a couple of minutes walk to the subway.Having a parking space for our rental car and wi-fi for the laptop were great bonuses. Would certainly recommend staying here!
Thanks again.

Charles,
Thank you for yet another great time at Lowther Suites. This was our second year in a row attending an international conference in down town Toronto in March and staying at the suites. What makes us return is the cleanness and freshness of the units, the brilliant location and atmosphere of the surroundings and the friendly and polite customer service that Charles always provides, before you leave home, during the stay and afterwards.
We are planning to come back to Lowther Suites for years to come and to recommend the place to other colleagues planning to visit Toronto.

Dear Charles/Jerry,
Thank you greatly for the excellent accommodations. My parents, who came for my wedding, were extremely happy with Lowther Suites. Their apartment was one of the highlights of their stay!
You were so helpful in making sure that my parents were comfortable and had their needs met, including maintaining prompt correspondence at all times.
Thanks again. I'll definitely think of Lowther Suites when my parents visit again.
Sincerely,

I have been staying at the Lowther Suites for about 6 months now, with approximately 6 more to go. The owner and super have been unfailingly polite and reliable, responding quickly and pleasantly to any questions or requests I have made. The ambience of my suite is very homelike and warm, and I feel amazingly comfortable here for a temporary residence. The neighborhood is also quite nice, quiet and central to Toronto with 2 subway stops within a few minutes walk and only a couple of blocks off of Bloor Street.

Lowther Suites was our first home when we emigrated to Canada in October 2008. We were very grateful to find a place that would allow us to bring our three dogs. The house is quiet and situated in an excellent location close to public transport and the downtown core.

Hello,
Our entire experience with Lowther Suites was positve. The booking was very easy (we even added another night at the last minute). Charles was very helpful describing the area and nearest attractions. The Suite itself was just perfect. Located in a pretty neighborhood. Close enough to walk many places. It was clean and very comfortable. The building manager was extremely helpful and so kind. We are a family with 3 children and this was so much better than a hotel room. I would highly recommend Lowther Suites.

Charles - I just wanted to write a quick note to say a BIG thank you! As you may recall, we were there for my sister's wedding and our extended family occupied most of the suites during that week of the Labour Day weekend. We all had a wonderful time at Lowther during our stay - the suites were very nice and comfortable and the area was so convenient to many of Toronto's sites(shopping/muesums/restaurants/taxis). Arnell was also very accomodating and gracious as well to any of our requests. You were wonderful in answering my questions from time of booking to departing and very thoughtful with our needs (ie: providing cribs). My family was very grateful to have Lowther suites as an alternative to hotels as this experience enabled us to be together and send my sister off from a "home". We will always have fond memories of Lowther & highly reccomend the suites to anyone.
Thanks again!

Lowther Suites is great! We stayed in 102, which had a large living room with a beautiful fireplace. Location was very convenient to U of Toronto and to the subway in a very nice neighborhood. Charles (who helped book our stay) was very helpful and friendly. I highly recommend staying there, and would stay there again next time I'm in Toronto.

my family was happy that I choose to rent apt suite, instead of hotal/motal. we were very impress the big both room and laundry washing & dryer machine. especially, kitchen with cooking tool. we can make a simple meal if we are not going out. 104 did not have big pot in kitchen and dish wash detergent, if you can add 2 different size of pot will be more convenience.
TV set was a little bit old. some of button was not work well.
we were happy that suite provided parking space. we did not have to looking for parking spec at night.
overall, I will rate this suite 90 out of 100. 4 1/2 star out of 5 star.

We really enjoyed our stay here. It was an ideal place for mom to rest and relax as she went
through the radiation treatment for her type of cancer. The one bedroom suite (102) was very
spacious and allowed four of us to be here comfortably. It was nice to be able to cook, do
laundry, and walk to the Princess Margaret Hospital. As you promised, Lowther Suites was our
home away from home as we are from Nova Scotia and Toronto was the only option for mom's

Hi Jerry,
Our stay was lovely. It was a pleasure to come home to such a relaxing atmosphere and the
location couldn't be more convenient for us as we love to walk the city. Unit 105 in particular is
very pleasant with lots of space and light. I believe someone else will be there in July from what
Christine/a(?) said which is too bad from our point of view. I'm sure the other two bedroom is also
lovely, if we are lucky enough to get the upgrade. And if not, the one bedroom will be comfortable.

To whom it may concern,
I would like to heartily recommend Lowther Suites to anyone looking for a short stay furnished suite during
their medical visit to Toronto, Ontario. We found that the location, cost, comfort, and especially the people made a
stressful visit to an unfamiliar city into a wonderful experience.
Recently, my husband and I traveled from Vancouver BC, to Toronto, Ontario where my husband was scheduled for
open-heart surgery at Toronto General Hospital. As we were going to be a long way from home and family for at
least 2 weeks, we set out to find a home away from home. Lowther Suites, met all of our criteria and more.
What makes Lowther Suites so ideal?
~ Only 2 km from Toronto General Hospital, a pleasant walk or subway ride.
~ 1 1/2 blocks from the St Georges subway station – 2 stops from the hospital, a fast, safe, easy commute
~ 2 short blocks from a market and a Dominion grocery store, as well as other shopping
~ 5 short blocks from Yorkville and an amazing Whole Foods grocery store.
~ Located at 88 Lowther Ave, in a quiet, charming neighborhood of heritage homes, perfect
for post surgery strolling
~ The house is kitty-corner to a playground, near an elementary school. The reason I mention this, is
because the sounds of kids on their way to school or play was comforting and normalizing in a strange
and stressful time.
~ There are only 5 suites in the building, which make it very peaceful.
Our suite number 101, on the main floor, was a bright one bedroom, with a full living room, dining room and
kitchen, It was spotlessly clean, nicely furnished and in wonderful repair. High speed wireless internet, phone and
fax allowed me to easily keep in touch with our family and friends. I really appreciated the hand written note that
the property manager Arnel had left for me, urging me to call him any time for any reason!
The cost of staying at Lowther Suites for 2 weeks, was less than staying at the Delta Chelsea, the hotel nearest to
the hospital. That isn’t even taking into consideration the difference between eating out every day and being able to
cook in our own suite. Plus, my husband had no desire to come home to a hotel room after his release from hospital.
Staying in a calm, quiet home environment was very therapeutic.
I encourage anyone in circumstances similar to ours to check out Lowther Suites.
Sincerely,
Cindy and Monty Sheldan

Jerry,
Just about to email you. Everything was fantastic, as always. It was a beautiful flat. The thing I love about it is that it always feels so much like a proper home that one is coming back to. No problem getting in and I left the two keys in the safe deposit box when I left. Arnel was as pleasant as always. I shall always be happy to recommend this gem to anybody coming to Toronto. My only regret was not being able to see you, but with the weather the way it was, you were very sensible to stay in LA!
Thanks again. It's always a pleasure dealing with you.

We wld like initially the month of Aug (but may need July as well). It depends when\if we can sell our house in DK.
Pls confirm the dates are available and the rate is the same. We wld ideally like the same suite - # 103 I blv, if possible.

To the owners of Lowther suites, we just wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed our time in Toronto and of course staying in one of your suites.
You may recall we were in suit 104 for most of December and we found it very comfortable and homely and of course in such a great location in terms of accessabilty.
Also we found Arnell to be a complete delight to deal with and so helpful.
We hope to return to Toronto in the not too distant future and we will be sure to return to Lowther suites.
Thanks once again.
Kind regards.
