Location was great, staff were very helpful. We got in late at night and no staff were available to ask for a different

The property is beautiful and well designed.

The mattress was not too bad but I do really dislike duvets because they are too hot and there was not a lighter blanket to use as an option. Also it is way too small for the bed, it should at least go down to cover the sides of the mattress to give you something to wrap around you a bit. Honestly we thought it was a queen duvet on a king bed.

Nice room in a central location, but pricey and neglected

We got a larger room compared to what we had booked and the staff was friendly.

Pricey: we paid 299CAN$ for one night, to get a fancy room, but no facilicities, not a kettle, no cupboard, no sidebeds, a little soap, a noisy refrigerator for wine without anything. The location is convenient, but not amazing (two days after we paid less for a big hotel on a central peer). The room was clean, but in general the structure looks old/neglected. No common areas, no possibility to have breakfast on site.

In the heart of Toronto

It's a little gem in the heart of the Toronto. Central to everything. The room was clean, quiet & bed was cozy. The restaurant was yummy and the staff were awesome. Air conditioner worked like a charm in the very humid days. I would definitely stay again.

Nothing to report.

Fabulous

We loved our room. Large, bright and quite considering on a busy road. Comfortable bed and very clean. Loved the bar, especially the moosehead larger!

No kettle in the room, travelling from the uk we are used to a kettle. Also with time difference would have been great when waking really early to be able to get a hot drink

We loved our stay at Ocho. Would defintely consider coming back when we return to Toronto.

The motif was a really cool vibe. We were surprised how nice the bathroom was--especially the soaking tub. The staff was very kind and accomodating. The location was also awesome. We were able to walk everywhere we wanted to go. And we were able to get a reasonably priced parking spot next door in the public parking spot. (No onsite parking.)

Nice short stay

Great location! Right in Chinatown, not far from Queen Street and Kensington Market. Love the industrial decor, very simple hotel with limited amenties and reasonable size room.

-The bathroom door is a sliding door, doesn't locked and sometimes it moved back by itself (only 1 time is happened.) -AC is very loud, but i don't mind, At least, it makes the room cooler when it was very hot day. -I don't mind having no coffee maker in the room and no breakfast in the hotel. I prefer going outside to a local cafe shop and restaurant.

Cool room for looking in an excellent location, not great for sleeping.

Location was great. Check In was easy. Room had an interesting layout.

There were no blackout curtains in the room so the room stayed too bright for my liking. The bed was somewhat uncomfortable - There was no top sheet which I am not used to.

A great quiet boutique hotel with 12 rooms in the heart of Chinatown and a short walk to Kensington!

Got an upgrade to a deluxe king when we arrived; also were permitted early check-in at 145PM (we had asked about this the day before)

Nothing, it was exactly what we were looking for!

Funky hotel in the heart of DT Toronto

Hotel Ocho is a funky little hotel that I can’t recommend highly enough. It’s not fancy but it is clean, well located, and has a funky vibe in the heart of DT Toronto. I don’t think you’ll find a better hotel for the price and location. Would definitely stay here again.

The hairdryer sucked!

Very good

The hotel was very quiet, very clean and the staff were very friendly and welcoming. There are lots of great places to eat close by.

The layout of the room took some getting used to as did the big "window" between the bedroom and the bathroom, even travelling alone. There is no coffee pot in the room, you need to go downstairs after 7:00 to get coffee and then it's a tiny cup so be sure to bring a large reusable cup with you if caffeine is what gets you moving in the morning.

Everything is expensive in Toronto. If you simply need a bed and a shower, this hotel should provide the bare essentials

Located just far enough from downtown to get around on foot.

Mold in the shower and the paint job on the walls of the room needed a significant do over.

Clean and good location

Room was clean and bed was comfortable. The location is very close to downtown.

The lobby smells really bad. The open concept of the room doesn't have a door to the bathroom which is kind of awkward if you're staying with anyone and like privacy in the bathroom.

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.

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.

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.

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!
