  Brunch review.
  
  Pro: beautiful scenery
  Hot food was actually hot.
  Nice server
  
  Cons:
  Stressed out hostess & supervisor for their "stressful" job
  If you are not in a seat, you will be attacked
  Watch out for the cheese cake, not chilled...
  Small buffet area, lots of crowding.
  No air conditioning/ air circulation
  
  Beautiful establishment. But please do not go there for brunch.
  
  Their staff is under such extreme stress and "pressure" that as soon as I walked through the door, hostess lady screamed "if you have a reservation, please GET IN LINE"(no more than 12 people at the front desk). Not off to a good start. As I walked passed her to find my family members who already had a table, an older gentlemen aggressively asked if I knew where I was going... I didn't have a floor plan of this restaurant, but I knew the general direction. He then immediately stormed off mumbling god knows what.
  
  Fortunately the table server was extremely nice and the food was decent. But not 52 dollars decent. 39 base fee + mandatory 18% tip and standard 13% tax. But it doesn't stop there... we got another uplift in charge because we had one extra person join us for brunch not part of the initial reservation.
  
  Just to be clear, price is not an issue. But I can't justify paying good money for sub-par service.

  Sadly we were there for a shower and high tea and it was a big disappointment. $40 for a pot of hot water that quickly turned cold, a box of tea we had to pass around to make out choice and sub-standard food. This is a perfect example of place that relies on their reputation from back in the day and hasn't bothered to keep up with the standards they were once famous for. A few small upgrades and this would have been a great experience as it stands none of the 10 people that came are likely to return. Wish I had better things to say.....

  Loved it! Went for a brunch on Sunday for my wife's birthday. Really great service. The selection of food in the food could be better but it was still pretty good. And high quality.

  This is a very nice hotel in a good location; free parking and easy access to public transport - these are important points for visitors. Our room was huge, with a big bathroom (spa bath and shower cubicle, separate WC). The soft jazz theme and background music is a nice touch. The continental breakfast was really good enough (porridge and boiled eggs in addition to the expected). If access to sauna etc was included for the hotel guests, rather than having to first pay for access to / spa treatment, this would have attracted full five stars.

  This was our second stay at The Old Mill. The room was nice as usual with music playing softly upon your arrival. However, the fireplace did not work, nor did it work during our first stay a couple years earlier, albeit in a different room. The large jacuzzi tub is also nice, but I feel the additional package consisting of chocolates, bubble bath and a electronic candle is quite over priced. The hotel is close to a subway station, which makes it convenient to get into downtown Toronto without having to drive. Parking is validated at the hotel. The surrounding trails and parks are great in the summer time I'm sure, but we've only stayed in the winter months. Breakfast in the morning is a Continental breakfast and nothing special. The staff has been friendly on both occasions. Overall I do not feel like the value justifies the price.
