Eastern Ontario
From the folks behind Toronto's legendary Drake Hotel comes the Drake Devonshire, a historic foundry-turned-inn converted to a swooningly stylish and contemporary boutique hotel, hovering on Lake Ontario. Reopened in 2015 after a three-year renovation, the inn, its restaurant and cultural programming have quickly taken the county by storm.
For a real splurge, stay in the Owner's Suite, on the top floor with a private balcony overlooking Lake Ontario ($1500).
