Very cool historic building! Shower needs an update/deep cleaning

Historical architecture. Close to Queen’s Park. No mini fridge. Not wheelchair or walker accessible. Very small rooms.

The Madison is a quirky and lovely old building. Our room was immaculate - only problem was toooooo many stairs! As others have said, people around the building were noisy at night, but we were prepared and it didn't interfere with a very good nights sleep!

affordable parking near by

great location and value

Found it to be a great location to hop on the subway to get around. Easy walking to a couple museums and restaurants. Room was perfect for a couple and liked that the pub was next door for a bite and a beverage. We enjoyed our stay at the Manor.

Check in was somewhat challenging as the desk is not well staffed. We were in the bar waiting to check in and were asked to move as there was a “private” event. It was pouring outside. They promote a continental breakfast - nothing, and once again no front desk staff.

It’s a very interesting old-style hotel. The manager was very kind and changed our room to a suite because the AC had not been hooked up. The interior design is very beautiful. As a boutique hotel, it’s worth staying here. Note that there is no elevator, so keep that in mind if you have heavy luggage.

First I'll list the good: centraly located to TONS of food choices, walking distance to public transportation, very clean room with gorgeous older furniture and our favorite part - our room had a balcony. They allowed us early check in which was a huge help! The restaurant food was amazing. Now let's talk about the major flaws.... Number one unforgivable item - we asked to turn on the AC in our room and I quote "the owner hasn't turned on the building AC yet, so you're SOL for now". I'm a 47yr old woman going through menopause, I hope you (the genius that made this ruling) get stuck barefoot in a minefield of Legos and have to step on each one! Other issues - no breakfast on site until after 11am, the bed felt like an air mattress, you kinda had to throw yourself on towards the middle and hope you didn't roll off or bounce the other person out of the bed. Lovely hot water in the shower but zero pressure. Warning - this place is next to some frat houses and across from an elementary school. Oh and there's construction right across also. All of these were fine with us, but just a heads up if you are looking for a quiet location, this is not it Our stay was not horrible but I will not be back and I would not recommend to family or friends.

We enjoyed our stay at the Madison very much. The room was spacious with lots of windows and a fireplace. The bed was very comfortable, but they do need some thinner pillows for those of us who prefer them. The location in the Annex was perfect as our functions were in Yorkville. We ate at the pub both nights and enjoyed the calamari. Service in the pub was exceptional. Parking was right behind the building, and we could park the car in the driveway for loading and unloading. We were woken up at 1:15 in the morning by the music from the fraternity next door, but it did not last long and we were able to go back to sleep. I would certainly book here again if I return to Toronto.

too cold, heat not working student bar nearby, noisy night

Yes

This is a charming old house. However, our room was very small and pretty tired-looking. There were a lot of steps—don’t stay here if you have any mobility issues. Judging by the fact that there were 2 fans in our room, I’ll bet they don’t have AC either. The woman at the front desk was charming and helpful, and the location near the centre of town, and the subway, was good.

There was no heat in the rooms so I needed two blankets and two comforters. The floor in one of the bathrooms was in need of repair. It was very noisy especially in the basement room. I was able to change room for the last night. The staff is not available all day, so you need to call or go to the pub next door if your key or your heating does not work. The carpets outside and in the hallways are old and dirty, especially in the basement rooms. There was a microwave in one of the rooms but no dishes nor cutlery. There is a nearby cafeteria for meals but I had to find it in my own since the pub restaurant only opens at 11:00 for breakfast. It should not be called a Boutique Hotel. The only good thing is the location close to museums, stores, restaurants and subway.

yes ok but there were steps to use with walking chair tv mostly in foreign languages India no connection before 9h00 on arrival the desk was closed 75.$ deposit ofsecurity in the room no water no milk no sugar but a good coffee maker i believe that the place should not be calles a hotel but a PUB care jb

The good: Nice location. Close to everything. The not so good: Parking situation was complicated and pricey. The room never cooled down lower 73 degrees. Hotel is next to a Bar, it’s super loud until 2 am, then at least another hour for the staff to clean up. It’s also located right next to Fraternity Row. Parties were happening all night long, as well. If you a heavy sleeper, this would be fine. I certainly expected more for the price we paid.

The room was tiny, but very clean and comfortable. The staff were very friendly and check-in was easy. The only downside was obviously the noise from the pub which I expected, and the street parking is permit only at night, which is not clearly stated.

Convenient access to streetcars and two different subway lines. Plenty of options for food and activities within a short walk, including the Royal Ontario Museum! The room was clean, large, and in a beautiful classic style. The hotel pub is a lively spot, with one of the best chess clubs in Toronto on Wednesday evenings. Light sleepers may be annoyed by all the young people partying outside on weekend nights, but that wasn't a problem for us.

The location is next to frat houses, we had a spotlight shining into our window all night. I would highly recommend an eye mask. The noise level wasn’t too bad considering the location. The room and hotel are very clean. The rooms are very dated but there is a lot of character throughout the hotel. Parking is very convenient and directly behind the hotel. Beds were not very comfortable. Price was excellent!

Everything is great re cleanliness if beds, bathrooms etc. but the place needs to get rid of the carpeting in the rooms. Excellent location, cant be beat.
