The Rex Hotel

Cannot complain at all the for price for this location!! Amazing to be able to go to the jazz shows downstairs as well. Staff was super kind and helpful. Room wasn't huge or fancy but super clean and cozy. We will definitely be staying again!!

This was my first stay at the Rex and it was awesome! The staff are particularly great and the music acts were amazing. I've never watched a Jazz performance live before and I was captivated watching the Saturday main event, which was Don Byron and NOJO. I ended up staying through both sets and then the late night performance which was a group called Flintlock, who were also great. I booked Sunday night as well and had another great show with the Steve Holt Jazz Quintet. For meals, I had the chicken fingers on Sunday night and the BLT and home fries when I was checking out on Monday. Both meals were very good, reasonably priced and the portions on the chicken fingers were huge. My room was very nice and surprisingly quiet considering the hotel's location. The bed was comfortable and the price was one of the best values in Toronto. I booked everything a few months in advance though and I would recommend you book your rooms and buy any tickets for the shows ahead of time as both shows were sold out and I heard their rooms are being booked for the summer already. I am definitely making this hotel a regular stop for my frequent trips to Toronto.

I really enjoyed the uniqueness of the property. While rooms are small vs a traditional hotel, everything I needed as a business traveller was available. It’s a historic venue for great music and a comfortable stay.
