City - Toronto

Serving up equal portions of charm and sophistication, Toronto’s tree-filled neighbourhoods give way to quaint shops and restaurants in historic buildings, some of the tallest skyscrapers in Canada, and a dazzling waterfront lined with yacht clubs and sandy beaches.

During the summer, residents enjoy cycling the Waterfront Bike Trail or spending afternoons at Balmy Beach Park. Commuting in the city is a breeze thanks to Toronto’s underground walkway system known as the PATH, which spans more than 30 kilometres and connects shops, restaurants, subway stations, and major attractions.

You’ll have a wide selection of neighbourhoods to choose from when renting in Toronto, from condo-filled Liberty Village to the green spaces of High Park North and the creative energy of West Queen West. From Kensington Market to the Entertainment District and Harbourfront Centre, the city offers endless ways to explore.
