So we analysed 7 hotels in Toronto, Canada using OpenStreetMap data, scanning each for the noise sources nearby and scoring them from 0 (very loud) to 100 (very quiet). Here is what we found.
The quietest hotel in Toronto is The Westin Toronto Airport, with a quiet score of 73 out of 100. At the other end, The Yorkville Royal Sonesta Hotel Toronto scores just 41, hemmed in by the noise sources around it.

Tips for a quiet stay in Toronto
- Start from the top of the ranking above, then double-check the map on each hotel's page for busy roads you want to avoid.
- Once booked, ask for a high floor on the side facing away from the street — it makes a real difference with road and nightlife noise.
- Weekend stays near Toronto's nightlife are loudest; if you're a light sleeper, favour hotels scoring 80 or above.
- Our score reflects the surroundings, not in-room soundproofing — a recently renovated hotel may feel quieter than its score suggests.
