About North by Northeast
North by Northeast sits on the Danforth in Toronto's East End — easy to book and neighbourhood in feel, which makes it a low-friction option when downtown dining rooms are full or feel too corporate. Pricing and menu details are unconfirmed, so check ahead before making it the centrepiece of a special occasion.
Quick Take: Worth Booking at 115 Danforth Ave?
Without confirmed pricing or a published menu on record, North by Northeast is harder to benchmark than most Toronto addresses. What we do know: it sits on the Danforth in the East End, a stretch that rewards neighbourhood exploration but sits well outside the downtown hotel corridor where most visitors plant their flag. If you are staying at the Four Seasons Hotel Toronto or Park Hyatt Toronto, this is not a five-minute walk. Factor that commute into your decision before committing.
The Danforth address does carry something the downtown hotel restaurants do not: a neighbourhood feel rather than a hotel-lobby atmosphere. If your priority for a special occasion or a date night is somewhere that does not feel like it was designed for conference delegates, that geographic trade-off may be worth making. The energy on the Danforth skews local and casual, which keeps the mood grounded even for celebratory visits. Expect ambient warmth and conversation-friendly noise levels rather than the hushed formality you would find at The Ritz-Carlton, Toronto dining rooms.
Booking here is rated Easy, which is a practical advantage in a city where the better-known rooms at Hotel, Toronto or The Hazelton Hotel require planning weeks ahead. If you are flexible and want a low-friction dinner in Toronto's East End this season, accessibility is a genuine draw.

How is the pool and spa at North by Northeast?
No pool or spa facilities are documented for North by Northeast at 115 Danforth Ave, Suite 302. If on-site wellness amenities are a priority, the Park Hyatt Toronto and Shangri-La Hotel, Toronto both have confirmed spa offerings. Do not assume these facilities exist here without verification.
How is the location of North by Northeast?
The Danforth Ave address puts North by Northeast in the Greektown neighbourhood, reachable via TTC Line 2 at either Broadview or Chester stations. It is further east than the downtown hotel cluster, which suits travellers with business or leisure plans on the east side of the city. Those needing quick access to the Financial District or Union Station should account for an additional 15-20 minutes by transit.
How does North by Northeast compare to nearby hotels?
Without confirmed pricing, cuisine type, or star rating on record, direct comparisons are difficult. What the Danforth Ave location offers is proximity to a residential neighbourhood rather than the convention-centre-adjacent positioning of The Ritz-Carlton or the Yorkville prestige address of The Hazelton Hotel. If neighbourhood character on the east side matters to you, North by Northeast may be worth investigating; if brand assurances and documented amenities are the priority, the established downtown options carry less booking risk.
