# Toronto hotels with a pool, a kitchen or a separate bedroom Written 2026-10-04 by Play Day. Nine Toronto hotels with real family facts: Chelsea Hotel's indoor pool and waterslide, Hotel X's play centre, separate-bedroom suites, and who each one suits. Chelsea Hotel Toronto is the best fit for a family that wants the hotel to be half the trip: an indoor pool with a waterslide, play spaces split by age, and suites with kitchenettes or two bedrooms. Hotel X Toronto has suites, connecting rooms and a kids' play centre. Kimpton Saint George is the one for a separate living area with a sofa bed, and Sheraton Centre Toronto Hotel is the downtown pick for a heated pool that runs indoors and out. Toronto is a city where the weather decides a few days for you, so a pool on site earns its keep. Most of the hotels below have one, and what sets them apart is what else is there for kids once they're out of the water. For four or more in one room, the suites are the answer. Chelsea Hotel Toronto sells a two bedroom suite that sleeps six, which is a lot less fiddly than two rooms and a hallway. ## How we picked The list is hotels with real family facts (a pool, a separate bedroom, connecting rooms, a kids' program), backed by each hotel's own pages. ## For a hotel that fills a rainy day Three big hotels that give kids something to do without leaving the building.
