What is the most expensive city to stay in Canada? ›Toronto is the most expensive city in Canada, outpacing Vancouver in the rankings, according to Mercer.

- 'Spa' is an acronym of the Latin phrase 'Salus per Aquam', meaning 'health from water'. - 'Spa' is named after the Belgian village, Spa, where hot mineral springs were used by Roman soldiers to treat aching muscles and wounds from a battle.
Upon arrival, spa's typically give visitors slippers, robe and a towel, however, some also bring their own.
