Clean, modern hotel. Close to city centre.

Site great, Service depends on who, food NO!
I arrived at the hotel 6 hours before check in - I utilized the bag drop service; and the reception offered to put my room on the priority list for housekeeping and would call me once it was done to allow an early check in (great offer!) - So I went for a walk for a coffee (C1 in the area) - then around the sights - until approximately 14:00 - asked for an update and my bag (needed something out of it) - and was advised it wasn't ready yet; and it could be put on the priority list! I advised I was told this, the reception took a moment then had a room for me. Annoying, failure one. The hotel was quiet, tidy, comfortable and in high quality the room perfect, bathroom great, hot water solid pressure and heat, AC/heating in the room; fresh air option (windows), usual amenities - however empty minibar! with a sign that i could only call to the room service but it wasn't 24/7 - lost opportunity there! - issue 2. First evening had a dinner at the resturant on site - 15 of us Bloody Mary's the waitress (American lady, on her birthday was AMAZING; attentive, engaging with the table and kept us all with full drinks and clearing empties etc top tier! The meal however - the steaks, all overcooked from talking to 6 of the table; I ordered the Wagyu Steak (the A5/top tier) expecting high quality preperation for a medium - it came out near well, and definitely wasn't Wagyu - however, the entree (venision pastry dish was top tier; perfectly served) - not enough charaters - TLDR -not ok

Alright place but no thrills.
Beds are comfortable and clean, Quiet area. Basic lighting in the room, no bedside table lamps. Toilet in the bathroom was stained at the water level, this was off putting! Breakfast very basic.

Average
The check in went smoothly and the room was good. We had a balcony which was small. The bathroom was clean and well appointed. My major gripe with this hotel was the fact of charging paying hotel guests $20 per day to park on the premises. Not sure how common that is, but ive never struck it before. For visitors, by all means. But for guests, i thiught was a bit much

We’ve had enjoyable stays at Rydges Latimer Square on numerous occasions but this time felt disappointed in the condition of the room. The room had sparse amenities, and low quality, thin towels and pillows. The carpet had also noticeable stains. Of particular disappointment was the quality of the mattress - both my partner and I found it very uncomfortable and had poor sleep as a result.

Great room but concerning check in practices
A beautiful room but a bit inconsistent with service. I arrived at 2.05pm. Reception was unattended but there were dozens of suitcases scattered around the area. They were mostly in the confines of the desk area but it looked really untidy just sitting around everywhere, not to mention a potential security issue. When a man finally arrived he said I was too early, but he gave me a voucher for a free drink at the restaurant which was a lovely gesture. He also offered to store my bag while I waited out the hour and took my number to call when the room was ready. It got to 2.45 and I hadn’t heard anything. At 2.55 I went back to reception and noticed that my bag was not in a storage area as I had hoped, but sitting on its own AWAY from the desk area, near a wall on the way to the lifts. Quite concerning really. Photo attached, I couldn’t believe it was just sitting there. The staff were polite but confusing. I was asked if I was here to check in when I queried the status of my room, and the guest next to me got asked his room number when he was also checking in. Felt like maybe a bit of inattentiveness? She told me breakfast was until 10, corrected it to 10.30, but I’ve now been told this morning it’s 10. She gave me my key and when I asked about my bag sitting there, she went over with me to double check and said “oh yea this is your bag.” No apology or acknowledgment of the bag being left on its own. So a nice room that was let down by staff inconsistencies.

Great room and top notch service, my only complaint is that I couldn't find any cutlery (other than a single teaspoon) or plates to use in the room for the duration of our stay. It would be helpful to have some available for use in rooms.
