Top University District Hotel Reviews

Town Inn Suites Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Best location ever! Very clean and very friendly! I’ll be back!"

University of Toronto - Wilson Hall Residence

10/10 Excellent

"If you're looking for an affordable place to stay, and don't mind if it isn't fancy, the UofT residence is great! We are 2 friends travelling together, and loved having our own private room with a bed each. It's very barebones but it does the job. The matresses are quite hard, there are 2 desks and 2 big wardrobes. Bathrooms are shared and can be a bit of a walk. There are plenty of toilet stalls, shower stalls and sinks. The shower stalls were well design with a sperate, dry changing area, and the shower itself. However this is the one downside we found, is the showers, though no doubt cleaned daily, got a lot of use, and at least on the women's side, we're covered in long hair all over the walls and floor, and even some shorter hairs as if someone had shaved... Otherwise, we liked that the front desk is open until 2:30am because we ended up running late. The residence is just off Spadina with several tram lines nearby, and a mere 10 minute walk from Kensington Market. For the frugal traveler, this is a great option."

DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Toronto Downtown

8/10 Good

"The room was excellent and the bed was very comfortable. There were no disturbing noises at night. Breakfast was expensive but the Jump Start bowl of oatmeal for $14 was worth it with the additional fruit and nuts. The staff were very friendly and helpful. It's unfortunate that the breakfast area was not open for dining in the evening. The high bar stools were not comfortable options in the Bistro, especially for a leisurely dinner."
