The
Sheraton Gateway Hotel is a fantastic hotel
located conveniently at the heart of the busy Toronto Airport on
top of Terminal 3. Many reports from spotters suggest that this
is far and away the best hotel for spotting. From July 2006 the
hotel will be linked with Terminal 1 by an automated train
service taking just 3 minutes.
Location *** Absolutely fantastic
location situated right on top of Terminal 3 and linked by a
walkway.
Spotting *** Ask for a room
overlooking the airport as you will then have spectacular views
of Runway 15L / 33R and many associated taxiways.
Photos ** Photos of aircraft at
Terminal 3 are available through the windows.
Value ** Prices for a twin
room start at about £55 at weekends and rise to about £125
during the week. Obviously quite pricey at weekends, but
considering the advantages of this hotel it is well worth the
extra money.

The Hilton Hotel at Toronto Airport is located just a few minutes away from the airport. The hotel offers a free shuttle bus to all terminals, although it is probably just as quick to walk if you do not have heavy bags! Try and get a room on the 5th floor or higher facing the airport. From here you will have views of the aprons between terminals 1 and 2. With a good pair of binoculars or a good telescope
you will not miss much. However, do not expect to get any decent photographs due to the clutter in the foreground.
Location *** Only a short walk or free shuttle bus ride from the terminal.
Spotting *** Remember to ask for a room on a high floor facing the airport for the best views.
Photos * Not possible from the hotel.
Value * Not particularly cheap. Expect to pay in the region of £100 for a twin room during the week.Further information and bookings can be found
