The Annex

Toronto, ON, Canada
$150-250 / natt

Bestill dette hvis You want to feel like a cool Toronto local with a record player in your room, not a tourist in a generic glass tower.

Hvorfor folk elsker det

  • Keyless, contactless entry feels like unlocking your own apartment
  • In-room record players with curated vinyl (Drake, obviously)
  • Raffaella, the on-site NY-style pizzeria, is a legitimate neighborhood hotspot

Hurtig oversikt: A hipster crash pad that trades front desk service for vibes, iPads, and excellent pizza.

Gjennomgått av @TrvlHaus: I stayed at The Annex and it's easily my favorite spot in Toronto. The hidden entrance gives it such a cool, exclusive vibe. I spent my morning sipping coffee on the patio and just soaking in the quiet. If you love design and privacy, this is the place.

The hype

Travelers love the 'home away from home' aesthetic and the super-comfortable Tempur-Pedic beds.

Reality check

The 'contactless' service is great until you have a problem and can't find a human immediately.

  • You hate waiting in check-in lines and prefer texting for service
  • You appreciate minimalist design and Aesop-style toiletries
  • You want to stay in a real neighborhood, not the financial district

FAQ & Skjulte tips

Alt du faktisk vil vite før du bestiller.

Is there really no front desk?

Correct. It's a virtual front desk. You text them for anything you need, and they are surprisingly responsive.

Is breakfast included?

No, but there's a continental spread available for a surcharge ($5-20 CAD) and great coffee downstairs.

Can I bring my dog?

Yes, it's pet-friendly with a $50 CAD fee per stay. They even have dog treats.

Is there a TV?

No. You get a 13-inch iPad Pro. If you want to watch a movie on a big screen, bring a laptop or projector.

Is the area safe?

Yes, The Annex is a vibrant, safe, student-heavy neighborhood. It's lively but not dangerous.

Innsidetips

  • ✨

    The 'Wine Bar' in the lobby transforms into a moody, candlelit spot at night – perfect for a nightcap without leaving the building.

  • ✨

    Ask for the 'Daniel's Room' if you want to see the space curated by Daniel Caesar (if available/still active).

  • ✨

    The Green P parking lot next door is much cheaper than finding a private garage further away.

5 ting du bør vite før du drar

  • 💡The 'wet room' bathroom design looks cool but can leave the entire floor damp – watch your socks.

  • 💡The scent in the lobby is custom and very specific (leathery/woodsy) – people either love it or hate it.

  • 💡You might run into local artists or musicians in the lobby; it's a genuine industry hangout.

  • 💡The stairs are steep; seriously, don't bring a massive suitcase.

  • 💡The blackout blinds are actually effective, which is rare for boutique hotels with big windows.
