04 · The night
Entertainment
A theatre with room for about 5,000 hosts touring acts, and Woodbine Racetrack offers thoroughbred racing in season.
05 · Practical
Getting there
About 15 minutes from Pearson Airport. TTC buses connect from Kipling and Islington subway stations, but driving is easiest.
You must be 19 or older to enter a casino in Ontario, and ID is checked. Gaming floor hours, rates and facilities change, so confirm with the resort before you travel.
The verdict
“The biggest casino resort in the country, but not the place for a romantic escape.”
