Unique, clean, modern, and central!

Incredibly spacious room with beautiful layout and unique design. Friendly and helpful staff. Central location - can't be beat!

I wish that checkout was slightly earlier. A checkout time of 4pm can make planning an early morning arrival difficult. However, this may just be a personal preference!

A nice simple hotel offering great value for money

Stayed here during a work trip to the city and felt like it was really great value for money. It has no bells and whistles but it offers the most important things: A comfortable bed, a clean room, great location, friendly staff. The converted warehouse has a very cool vibe to it and the room I was in was a great size. It's also a smaller hotel so I greatly enjoyed the peace and quiet - not thousands of guests rushing between facilities. It's becoming my new regular hotel for my mid-week work visits to Toronto.

The building is an old warehouse conversion, so it's going to be expected to have some unpolished edges compared to a new build hotel, but nothing unexpected or major. As other travellers have mentioned, would love some breakfast options, maybe even a deal with one of the nearby cafes.

Excellent

All of the staff were so friendly and accommodating. We had dinner and the food was delicious. Room was clean. The only negative thing for us was that there was no coffee maker in the room and we had to leave early before the coffee was ready in the morning.

Great location, relatively low price, I'd stay there again.

I like this hotel, I would stay there again. It is typical of a city location, no on-site parking, but the parking garage is 2 blocks away. The room was clean and comfortable, but somewhat minimal in its amenities, which was fine for me because I didn't spend much time in the room (and you get what you pay for, it was relatively inexpensive). It is adjacent to Toronto's Chinatown, and adjacent to Toronto's wonderful system of streetcars, buses and subways, making getting from here to there incredibly simple, and I left my car in the parking garage. Strong Wifi. Bar in the lobby. This is an old brick building, refurbished to hotel space, the rooms show exposed brick and wood beams (which I find charming), and the bathroom seems brand new and modern.

No refrigerator in the room; only one chair in the room, no couch or sofa in the room.

Cool vibe hotel in downtown Toronto.

Very well placed downtown. Cool look, loft type, clean and comfortable.

Does not have own parking. (However public underground parking available 250m from the hotel.)

Very good

The staff were incredibly helpful and friendly, and the location was amazing. The room was very clean. I would definitely stay here again when needing to stay in Toronto

The HVAC unit was loud, and the unit would click when the fan turned on and off. While everything was clean and well kept, things like the tile in the shower, and the bed could use a little updating. Nothing too bad but just a little worn.

Perfect!

Great location, within easy walking distance of downtown. Friendly staff & great sized room.

The sound travelling between rooms was bad. I could hear the people in the room next door to me talking late at night.

Very good

Lovely little hotel with a really convenient location. Good for solo travellers as it's easy to find and on a main street. Staff were super friendly. Room was big, TV was good quality, bed comfy, and a huge bathroom.

Only negative is the price. Yes, it's Toronto but it's still a lot of money for a 3 star (?) hotel.

Very decent place in surrounding area

Great location, very accessible to foods and transportations. Clean bed and bathroom. Also very nice staff, was able to facilitate a couple of personal requests.

The blanket is pretty thick and not ventilated (not necessarily a bad thing for everyone, but just not my preference)

A pleasantly surprising hidden gem

Stylish rooms / modern & simplistic with exposed brick walls & natural lighting Clean & spacious bathroom Lots of towels Soft fluffy bed with feathery duvet City view

I was a little confused when I walked in because the rooms are actually above the restaurant. You can find the check in desk under the stairs & the elevator to the right of the stairs. Even though I was a little thrown off at first, it was no big deal because after my stay I can appreciate the simplicity & unpretentious style of the place. I did have to wait 10 -15 mins during check in however they offered me late check out as compensation!

Overall the rooms and hotel are ok, you really pay for the location.

The location is perfect for a tourist. We were at walkable distance of most of the neighbourhoods. There are lots of restaurants, coffeeshops and stores nearby. The staff was friendly. There is an elevator. The rooms were clean, we had enough towels. The bed was confortable with enough pillows. We could change the temperature of the room. We didn't hear much of the people outside and beside our room. If you come by car, there is a good underground parking not too expensive in front of the hotel.

The rooms aren't that big, it's ok for a person or a couple. There was only a lamp to illuminate the room at night. The tv did not work but thankfully someone left their netflix logged in so I used it (sorry). There were lots of wires coming out of the tv and the electronic antenna. The door for the bathroom isn't really a door and it kind of gets stuck when you roll it, not very practical if there is someone going for number 2... Breakfast is not included, would have been nice to have a little something other than just coffee, but again, there's plenty of stuff around.

Fabulous boutique style hotel, great if you're looking for a something funky and comfortable

Really happy with this Hotel. It's a fabulous character building that's been respectfully converted to a boutique style hotel. My room was a pleasure to be in and the bathroom was superb, spacious and well appointed. Super friendly people too. I'd happily stay here again if ever I'm back in Toronto.

If there had been a food option for breakfast I would have happily have eaten at the restaurant/bar area as it had a really nice feel. There were lot's of excellent options nearby so it was no biggie.

The Ocho hotel is a small and nice place to stay, well located for either business or pleasure.

Hotel Ocho is well located. The people in the reception were kind. I had to print a document and received help with no extra charge. I had to extend my stay two night and enjoyed staying longer. It was a nice room at the end of the corridor, and I could see a park on one side. This was nice.

Maybe include an option for breakfast.

Cute space downtown

Cute vibe, friendly staff. I loved the location, it was an easy walk to a lot of places. It was perfect for me, a solo traveler and my first time in Toronto.

I didn't have a top sheet, which creeped me out a little as hotels are known for not washing the comforters. I didn't know until I went to bed so I didn't have much of a choice, it was late and I had an early wake up.

The location of the hotel is near by casino bus station and Torono Ubiv.

Luxurious and close to the action

The location and size of room were the real luxury aspects of our stay. The room was very cool - New York loft style with a huge bed and a bath. All clean and plenty of cosmetics in the bathroom. Staff were friendly and polite. We didn't hang out at the bar, but it had a young, cool vibe :)

It would've been nice to have tea / coffee facilities in the room, but perhaps this isn't common in Canadian hotels
