Found this place by total fluke on trip advisor when trying to find somewhere to stay in Toronto. This place is so nice, it is literally, as someone described previously, a home from home. Conveniently located near a subway station that takes you straight into the heart of Toronto. Also, there are lots of cafes and restaurants near the B& B. Diane the owner is really friendly and nice to talk to. So glad we didn't opt for a hotel. Worth every penny.

We have just returned from a stay in North America which began at Toronto.
We spent four nights there at The French Connection where we received a warm welcome from Diane ; don't hesitate before your stay to ask her any advice you need. Diane is really a trustfull person and she gave us all the information we need before our stay which was really helpfull. Moreover, she answered each time via email very quickly and efficiently.
Regarding the bed and breakfast itself, we can really say that it is close to perfect.
We had two differents rooms (one for the parents and one for our children -20 and 17 years old-) which were both really nice and very confortable : a special mention for the king beds...
The whole house is really nice and it was a great pleasure to enjoy reading at the end of the day in the living room.
Breakfasts... oh breakfasts : there were really the best ones we never had during our whole August trip (although we experienced other great breakfasts in other places).
We have to talk about the location which is nice and convenient thanks to the subway station, about a five minute walk from the B& B.
What else can we say ?
Don't hesitate to ask Diane about the quietest room available : the two rooms we had were both very nice but one was really very quiet and the other one a little bit noisy.
Last but not least : you have to know that Diane have two cats which might be a potential issue for some allergic guests.

The owner, Diane, runs an updated and lovely B&B just a few miles north of Bloor Street. We were impressed with the room, and modern bathroom. Breakfasts were well prepared. We used a Toronto Transit day pass to ride the subway, trams, and buses all around central Toronto. The subway station is a five minute walk from the house, and frequent bus service runs down Bathhurst to the University and Chinatown areas.

The only potential issue for visitors to the B&B are Diane's two cats. They are both friendly pets, but might cause an allergic guest some problems.

If you ever think big cities lack personality, warmth, charm or other kindhearted characteristic, then you must visit Diane at the French Connection to have your faith renewed. Our recent stay at Diane's B&B was so comfortable and enjoyable we completely forgot about siteseeing and spent hours chatting after breakfast! Her home is warm and inviting, and provided us with a perfect night's sleep. Truly a must if you're planning a trip to Toronto.
