Hilton Toronto Downtown - New Year's Eve 2007

The Hilton Toronto Downtown hotel is a great hotel for New Year's Eve countdown and firework, but not a good place for the executives to gather with their business associates during the holiday seasons. It was New Year's Eve. There was a long lineup just for check-in from 3:30 p.m to 6:30 p.m. and after. There was no VIP check-in, although there was an unused executive floor check-in line. There was no VIP compliment upgrade, although rooms were available. The executive lounge was closed for almost the whole month from Dec 14th to Jan 6th. Why was it so busy? The hotel features an amazing Toronto downtown city view and is facing the Nathan Philip's Square, over-looking the New Year's Eve countdown and firework! (LP, can it be more romantic to countdown for the New Year by in-room candle-light dinner and movie followed by live firework countdown at Nathan Philip's Square?) The hotel's restaurant Tundra has great buffet breakfast at $20+ each. Every single piece of food was great! We like the Egg Benedict the most.
