Hi,

Was planning on doing a tasteful casual shoot with a model in a nice hotel room. Does any one have any experience or recommendations of some nicely decorated (and simple, classy) hotel rooms that won't be too expensive to book?

Thanks!

I don't know of any offhand, but check out some
bed and breakfast places, as these are usually
nicer than a hotel room.
Although you may have to leave the city to find some
nice and affordable ones.
Some sites also post pictures of thier rooms
to make it easier to find something you like.

sounds like a good idea.

I was really hoping to stay in town however due to time constraints

OK, finally getting around to setting up a shoot with a model in a hotel. Anybody have any other suggestions around Toronto that has nice rooms without being too expensive?

Thanks

the rooms in the Gladstone are funky fresh... make sure you figure out which rooms are on what side of the building when booking so you can plan on lighting.

Agree - the Gladdy also has a variety of different eclectic styles

Thanks for all yor replies. I did the shoot(s) on the weekend and it turned out alright. Didn't get the Gladstone unfortunately and ended up with some bad colored curtains (LOL) but the room i did get was decently furnished (Sheraton).
