The suspended lobby 'floating' on steel rods is an architectural marvel
Window nooks in every room that actually make you want to read a book
Alder's wood-fired Mediterranean food is a destination in itself
Бързо резюме: It’s undeniably cool and the staff are genuinely nice, but the 'cozy' rooms can feel tight if you bring more than one suitcase.
Преглеждано от @44nouns: I stayed in this suite and it felt more like a friend's cool loft than a hotel. The vintage vinyl collection and that acoustic guitar gave me total creative freedom, and curling up in the window nook with a view of the Toronto skyline was the perfect recharge.

The hype
Travelers universally praise the 'impeccable' design and 'soundproof' rooms, but often wish for in-room coffee makers that aren't just request-only.
Reality check
The 'cool' factor means low lighting in rooms and bathrooms that some find frustrating for getting ready.
You appreciate architecture — the Shim-Sutcliffe design is world-class
You want a lively lobby scene with DJs and craft cocktails
You travel with a dog (pets stay free, no fees)

Housekeeping: Daily service is thorough; guests consistently describe rooms as 'impeccable' and 'spotless'.
Bathroom hygiene: Pristine. Grout lines are clean, glass is streak-free. No mold reports found.
Maintenance: New build feel. Everything works, though some find the vintage-style light switches tricky.
Linens & towels: High quality, crisp white linens. Towels are plush and plentiful.
Odors & scents: Neutral to fresh woodsy scent. No musty carpet smells reported.

Show your parking receipt at the front desk — they often offer a credit of up to $30/night to offset the cost.
✨
The 'Winter Chalet' on the roof (Dec-Feb) has a free curling rink — sign up early as it's first-come, first-served.
✨
Waterworks Food Hall is literally across the street (50 Brant St) and is a fantastic, cheaper alternative for lunch.
5 неща, които трябва да знаете преди да отидете
💡The window benches are deep enough to actually nap on.
💡The 'Double Double' room is really just two beds touching each other; don't expect privacy.
💡The lobby floor is suspended from steel rods — if you look closely, it doesn't touch the columns.
💡You can borrow a guitar from the front desk if your room doesn't have one.
💡The shower pressure is excellent, but the controls can be a bit finicky to figure out.
