The stay was alright. Each corner of the room had some dust and cobwebs. I also found a piece a of lego and some coins lying around. Bathroom is the cleanest part of the room. Kitchen was in between clean and dirty although everything was organized. Price isn't too bad As a student studying Hotel management, front desk agents shouldn't... More

Thanks for the thorough review! We apologize for the substandard cleaning in the room, though I am pleased it was organized and that you found the bathroom acceptable. Thank you for the suggestion regarding Front Desk security. The Alexandra Hotel is staffed 24/7 and has a secure front entrance so guests generally feel quite safe here. Our clerks know never...

My friend and I stayed he when we were in Toronto to see the Blue Jays. The Alexandra was in a great location and was within walking distance to the Rogers Centre, CN Tower, and the fashion district which has a lot of bars, restaurants, and stores. There's even a Taco Bell nearby. The rooms are very basic. No frills... More

Thank you for reviewing the Alexandra. We have a great location for exploring downtown and aim to be an affordable alternative to some of the pricier hotels in the area. There are many restaurants and shops within walking distance (including Taco Bell!). Hope you stay again! More

Our son needed emergency spinal surgery and we live 2 hours away. I found this hotel on the internet and it is a 5 minute walk from Toronto Western Hospital.

Hello and thank you for taking the time to review our hotel. The Alexandra Hotel is only a few minutes from the Toronto Western Hospital, which is just north of Alexandra Park (not Victoria Park, which is near Scarborough). I'm glad you found it safe and comfortable and we appreciate the recommendation. More

This is the kind of hotel you want to be close to downtown. It offered us a 5$ daily parking. It has a free wifi. There was a strange odor in the corridor but in the room it was ok. Dont plan a St valentine day in this hotel! It is a good hotel with all services and well located.... More

Location good a 5 minute walk to Spadina Avenue. Lots of bars, shops and restaurants in immediate area. Service was generally ok, friendly enough. Reception area is not immediately apparent, entry 'lobby' is clinical and indicative that these are rooms for rent in a fairly bland old fashioned building rather than a boutique hotel as such. The lobby area had... More

Thanks for the concise review! We are lucky to be in a quiet residential neighbourhood but still within walking distance of great restaurants, pubs and shopping. And we are near streetcar lines on Queen Street, Bathurst, Spadina and Dundas. I am glad you found the hotel and the staff satisfactory. More

This hotel used to be student accommodation (a halls of residence) so is good for medium to long visits as it has laundry facilities and a basic kitchenette.

We are glad you found the facilities to your liking, and we do offer discounts for weekly or monthly stays. The hotel was never a student residence, though we do occasionally have students staying with us during their winter terms, as we are near the University of Toronto, George Brown College and Ryerson University. Thank you for the positive review! More

Each room in the hotel also has a hard-wired connection and it is a much more stable connection.
