Casa Loma Review

Very cool! Who knew Canada had castles?? (Albeit relatively small ones)

I really liked it. Great that they play clips from movies filmed there. A bit hit inside in the summer as no air conditioning but we'll worth the sweat. Also worth- queueing to get to the top of the tower if you can climb spiral and narrow staircase!

Very interesting. A must see when visiting Toronto.

Nice architecture of the building. It's easy to get there by the yellow line from the union station.

Exciting place to visit. To give it justice you really need half a day to take it all in. Make sure you visit the towers if you're physically able. The views are superb.

so many nice stuff to take pictures of and learn about.

Don't miss the 10 minute documentary before exploring this place. Adds a new dimension to your visit

Very beautiful castle in 1900s. Have cafeteria in the ground base and a souvenir shop

Halloween at Casa Loma is amazeballs! Check it out!

Nice if like to read a lot of history or listen to audio tours.

Unmissable. Be sure to climb high on the towers to enjoy an incredible view of Toronto.

It's said one of key attraction in Toronto, but it is really expensive $30 per person. I don't feel that worth to checkout.
Weekend are always crowded, limited car parking facility
They should probably reduce the ticket price.

This place is beautiful. I loved it so much esp the gardens, very picturesque! Leave aside about 2 hours for this castle tour!

Very interesting, not very big and could be a little more organized.

The exterior really was castle like, but there was construction going on which was quite disturbing. It costs $30 to go in which I think it s a bit pricey for an ordinary museum visit. It was a good exercise walking up the hill to get to the castle though.

I didn't want to come. In Europe there are dozens of castles and real manors. It didn't seem to make sense to see a copy made in the 1800s. Then I saw the illustrative brochures and I realized that it was a dwelling built by a very rich man to celebrate his wealth. Moreover, this dwelling was used for filming horror films.
I decided that it was a typical phenomenon of the place and that it was appropriate to visit it.
Luckily. The place is interesting. Very.
And very nice too.
We also happened to see the guests at a reception (there are receptions) and on the top floor there is also a military museum. The landlord was a fan of militaria and had managed to get the command of a department.
To visit absolutely.
There is also a parking lot. For a fee.

I love history and was pleased to have the opportunity to visit Casa Loma

A window into another world. A must if visiting Toronto

Amazing place to know about the ancient history. Gold for history lovers and experience the castly hidden alleys and forts. Keep extra time on your watch this place is bigger to explore than you expect. And get a city pass to cover it.

By far the most interesting thing to do in Toronto. The castle has been used as a set for many films including X-Men. The self guided walking tour gives a real sense of Canadian history.

No printed ticket. No wifi. No customer service. Too Crowded. Lots of rooms are closed. NOT RECOMMEND!

Went to the haunted house, it was fun only thing it was packed i should have went during the week or a couple weekends b4 Halloween

Did the Escape from the Tower adventure and had a great time. It is worth the trip. Plan to visit the castle first, then go behind the scenes.

Both the place and its history are quite unique. A must for every visitor in Toronto.

First time here and it was beautifully decorated for the holidays! I will definitely be back!!

Amazingly beautiful castle turned into a museum that s rich in historical aspects. A must-see!

The castle is okay if you have been to many historic homes and castle or estates, it's kind of small in comparison to others. There's a free audio tour handheld device. However, what is really cool about this place is the Legends of Horror in the month of October. Amazing actors, lighting, projections and the whole event details were planned so well. I have been to a lot of haunted houses, haunted hayrides, King's Dominion Fright Night, and Busch Gardens' Howl-o-Scream, but Casa Loma is far better. Well done to the cast and crew. If I more time in Toronto with a group, I would do the Escape from the Tower escape room.

Hi , me and my friends visited Casa Loma on August 25, 2018. The entrance price is very high. Castle hasn t been renovated for a long time, floors should be repainted and walls too. My mother is 75 years old , we visited Casa Loma together on August 25 , 2018. She has diabetes, she wasn t feeling well and we went to the cafeteria at 4 pm . Cafeteria was closed , because my mother didn t feel well I asked a girl who worked in the cafeteria if I can buy a bread for my mother , she told me that they closed and won t sale a bread. I think it s cruel and rude. My mother could die. I won t recommend to visit Casa Loma to anyone.

A tourist attraction you probably do twice in your life time.

Excellent place. Of the most beautiful of Toronto. Do not stop going to this place. It is very nice with excellent gardens and houses around.

Good historic information. Beautifully constructed, although I question the up-keep of the castle, could be improved in that area. Parking is also an issue there...

This is a fascinating place, and worth every penny.

It was a great place to visit. However the GPS maps will bring you 5 blocks over.

Loved this wonderful construction. A true castle. Air conditioning with failure

A beautiful and historic (not that old though) place to visit.
Gen. Henry Pellat has seen quite fine days and rollercoaster life.
This palace is a living memory of his achievements.

Beautiful castle with awesome food at Blueblood steakhouse

Great place to visit! Can be crowded, especially the towers

I visited Casa Loma this summer in August and I have to say that it was highly on of my favorite activity's that we got do while visiting! This castle/mansion is really clean and is enjoyable for everybody such as a scenic castle and its history. It is optional for an audio tour if you would like to learn more about the castle. Also, in the castle they have an underground tunnel leading to a horse stable and more history about the earlier time period. In a matter of fact you should come earlier so you have a lot of time in one room but it look me about 2 and a half hours. Overall I really enjoyed this place and hopefully I can return!

Beautiful house and museum, so much to see and free audio guides. It's worth taking a trek up to the Norman tower, great views.

This place was amazing! If you have kids who are interested and love dragons, this is a great place! Lots of different shows and activities. My 6 year old loved walking through the caves.

A place that will never forget, beautiful is very worth, do not miss the time to meet inside the Castello, but I took so much photo outside that the battery of the cell phone

Beautiful views of one of the most amazing houses in Toronto!

Great little castle. Moneys worth if you got city pass.

Nice cultural place to visit. If you are into history and or architecture it's a must go.

Lots of Toronto history and walking audio tour was good.

It s absolutely beautiful, I want to say I enjoyed the grounds more than the castle itself. It s a gorgeous place to take pictures, lots of history as well. I d highly recommend going if you get the chance.

Interesting place! Old house with a fascinating history. Shame that they didn t preserve more of the gardens/grounds around the house.

awsome breakfast and great place to spending time with family or friends

I have been here a few times. The last time, they have a medieval theme event. I liked the regular visits more than the event.

Great historical place to visit in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

Wow! This place is beautiful. Ever wonder how premium can a life be? You will get to see a palace of dreams. I liked the concept of the audio tour. It will take you 3 hrs to complete. The best part is going to the top and feeling the refreshing air!!

We went the Saturday before Christmas. We had a good visit but there were tons of families with young kids there for the various Christmas activities. I think we would have enjoyed our visit a lot more without the crowds. The torrents and tunnel/garage were all very interesting. One recommendation if you do go during Christmas would be to go late afternoon, so you can see all the lights.

A lot of repair work which is good but meant many rooms and areas closed off

It was a nice place to stop by during an evening drive.

Nice place to bring your family for a day trip. Lots of rooms to see. The best part is the historical movie!

This place is gorgeous with lots of history. The grounds are well kept and the interior of the castle is elegant. A must see in Toronto.

Exciting place if you love to see a castle and its preserves. But it is not as big as the ones we have in Rajasthan, India.

An amazing infrastructure, suggested place for sightseeing. Captivating historical site, that provides inquiry to the information of both world wars and certain countries in significance to different connections that were involved.

Wonderful tour guides and staff. Informative, articulate and carries a deep passion for this historical vicinity.

Awsome to see what the ultra rich lived like. Totally extravagant lifestyle.

The Soul In The City concert was awesome. Great music, good food and drinks. Monday night's during July and August.

When you approach the doors of Casa Loma for the first time and see the admission price, you second guess your reason for coming. Then you opt to go in because you're already there so why not. You pay the $30 cdn fee and enter in. At first glance, it's a grand room with vaulted ceilings but not really that impressive.
Next you get in line for your audio tour handset and suggested to start at #2. Once you start doing the tour, you're hooked.
An amazing and mesmerizing experience unfolds as you go from room to room and listen to the history detailed behind everything you see. Time seems to melt away and three hours later, you feel like you've just stepped back in time and came back to the present with a satisfied smile of this wonderful experience you're so glad you paid the high admission price for.
I highly recommend this place to visit and experience all it has to offer. Best self-guided tour we've had world-wide to date.

I so much hope one day gov will not sell it to a private entity....

Beautiful historic landmark. Recommend the Christmas display. Expensive though.
