If you and your partner consider yourselves artistic people (or at least fans of art), look no further than the Gladstone Hotel! One of the most unique Toronto wedding venues, the Gladstone makes this list because it’s not only historic and centrally-located in downtown Toronto, but it’s also got so much character your guests will be constantly amused! With rooms your guests can book on-site to stay the night, the convenience of the Gladstone is also a huge reason it’s beloved as a Toronto wedding venue.

The Gladstone Hotel describes itself as a “destination art hotel”, which really couldn’t be more perfect. For small to medium weddings of no more than 200 guests, the Gladstone offers an immersive artistic wedding experience.

Built in 1889, the Gladstone Hotel was restored and reimagined in 2005. The landmark Victorian building features exposed brick & walls, huge public spaces, elegant crown moulding, a fully-restored hand-operated elevator and hardwood floors throughout.

Another huge reason why the Gladstone Hotel is on this list of the most unique Toronto wedding venues? Sustainability. Their kitchen uses locally sourced ingredients and each hotel room utilises environmentally-friendly products. A green roof tops off the list of reasons this eco-friendly hotel is such a unique Toronto wedding venue.
