Hey Guys
I'm looking for a source that would contain all the amenities (hotels, retail, and restaurants) along Bloor Street. Any help would do

What do you mean exactly?
You want a hotel on bloor street that has all those amenities?
Or are you looking for recommendations on hotels, spas, and restaurants along bloor?
I think the only hotel that has all those amenities on bloor near Yonge is The Hyatt. They have Morton's steakhouse, a high end spa, and a high end cigar store.

I'm doing some research on Bloor Street for a friend who wants to go do some sightseeing. I need to know all the retail stores, restaurants, coffee pubs, hotels, etc located on Bloor Street. especially focuses on retailing stores on Bloor Street.

hrmm a quick look online didn't show much
http://www.torontotourism.com/Visitor/WhereToShop/NeighbourhoodShopping.htm
might be a good link just to get a sense of the neighborhood but it looks like the site if more geared towards searching than browsing
As far as retail goes I'll just list everything off the top of my head that's down there between yonge and avenue/queen's park.
Lacoste, Tommy Bahama, Banana Rep, Roots, Gucci, Louis Vuitton, Chanel, super highend jewelery, Browns, Davids, Cole Haan, Winners, La Senza, Tabi (?), Danier Leather, Aritzia, HMV, William Ashley, The Foot Shoppe (high end comfort shoes), Puma, Williams Sonoma/Pottery Barn, Harry Rosen, Holt Renfrew, Aveda... it goes on and on.
Personally the food in that area isn't super good for the insane prices you'll be paying. There are some gems though like Sushi Inn for fast cheap sushi, Michelle's Brasserie for a pint of Kronenbourg and French Bistro fare on a beautiful shaded patio, this Italian restuarant beside Sotto Sotto on Avenue (can't remember the name but it's as good as Sotto Sotto without the stratospheric price).... i'll post more as it comes to mind.

For a great restaurant, I suggest Bellini's? Very intimate, classy Italian restaurant on Yorkville Ave (just South of Bloor). Amazing service and excellent food.
AND you can buy a $100 gift certificate for $75 from www.dine.to (look under "gift certificates").

you'll have to narrow that down, bloor street is very long...your best bet is bloor between bathurst & yonge.

Oops sorry guys, didn't realize it was off the list. I bought a gift certificate there and ate on June 9 so I figured the deal would still be good. My bad.
