Hostelling International - Toronto is a modern and relaxed hostel in the heart of Toronto.
The Location
The HI Toronto is located approximately a ten-minute walk to the main shopping centre, the Eaton Centre, where you will get most of your public transport to get around the city. It is also located a two-minute walk from a supermarket and ten minutes from the UP Express train that goes to the airport. The hostel is located in a quieter area, so you don't need to worry about noise from traffic for sleeping. It is a great location.
Rooms and Bathrooms
There are nine floors worth of rooms here. The rooms are warm and comfortable and the beds are ridiculously comfortable. Each bed has an allocated safe and small locker in which to keep valuables. The rooms can be quite crammed at times if they are full, and there isn't much space to put large luggage. Some rooms have bathrooms as en suites and others have bathrooms in the corridors. They are decently cleaned and have good hot water.
Common Spaces
The main common area in the hostel is the living room in the front reception area, where people tend to hang out and meet up. There is also a kitchen in the back end of the building that is quite new and really well equipped for cooking. They have tubs of free pasta for cooking as well, which is a bonus if you are on a budget. There are tables and chairs next to the kitchen for dining and people will sometimes sit here to hang out as well.
Downstairs to the hostel as you enter is The Cavern, a public bar that has different deals depending on the day of the week. The bar is also a great place to hang out and meet people too and they have food there as well if you don't feel like cooking for yourself or leaving the hostel to get food. Occasionally they will also have live music, so check the noticeboard.
Summary
The HI Toronto is a really relaxed place to stay. It is newly renovated so has a really clean and modern feel to it. They have twenty-four-hour reception, so you can check in whenever. They also have a laundry room upstairs if you need to do laundry. It is a very well-organised hostel with friendly staff and it's a great place to base yourself while you explore Toronto.
