Me and my fiance had a wonderful stay at the Castlegate Inn. We weren't looking for anything fancy or expensive, and when we stumbled on the Castlegate Inn website, we decided to give it a try. We had a four night stay, and we were located on the second floor. The room was very cozy, we had a very comfy bed with fresh sheets, and we could get a nice hot shower. Even with the fact that the window faces Spadina, we slept great - we had the A/C on to keep us cool, as well as a fridge for water and snacks and a microwave for heating up our food. We didn't spend a lot of time in the room, but it was exactly what we needed as we were in the city to vend at a convention. This place is SO close to the Dupont station subway!

Beforehand, when we were in the midst of making reservations for our stay, the Castlegate was very prompt at answering all my questions. Great customer service! We got into the city very late at night, and when we got to the Castlegate Inn there was an envelope with my name on it and all the instructions and things that we needed, as well as a parking pass for our vehicle. They were very thoughtful in giving us a large parking spot as we came in a Dodge pickup truck.

There is nobody on site 24/7 but they do provide you with a phone number to call should you have any emergencies. However, he had zero problems. At night we could hear people once in awhile walking around above us or beside us, but they in no way sounded like elephants and we had great sleep all four nights. Bumps in the night are to be expecting in such an old house - it gives it a little character. We will both definitely be going back! I highly recommend this place to anyone who needs a comfy place to stay, nothing fancy, and are on a budget - what a great price, and a cute little place.

This place does not qualify to be a 'bed and breakfast' in any way. It is a cheap hotel room with an awful breakfast consisting of fatty muffins and coffee/tea/bottled orange juice.
The attendants are not helpful and I find it strange that it does not show the name of the place at the door. It is just a house, with no ringing bell. Are they hiding something?
I DO NOT recommend it to anyone, unless if I want to punish someone. I wanted a bed and breakfast to enjoy with my family and I felt cheated with what they offered.

The Castlegate Inn is truly three Victorian Homes. My wife described our room as functional. Nothing fancy but clean and comfortable. The only place we stayed in Ontario with both a fridge and a microwave. Note that daily housekeeping is extra $20/day. The reception is operated with only limited hours but there is a phone number you can call. Great location. Dupont subway station at the corner. Walking distance to U of T or Casa Loma tourist attraction. Wave to the people on the Hop On / Hop Off bus while you relax on the private lanai.

We stayed at the Castlegate Inn for 3 days and had a wonderful stay. The location was fantastic so I am not sure why people complain. For $68.99 we had a queen room with breakfast and was near everywhere we wanted to go. I would definately come back to the Castlegate Inn for my next Toronto visit
