Rezervirajte ovaj smeštaj ako You want to feel like a cool Toronto local with a record player in your room, not a tourist in a generic glass tower.
Zašto Ljudima Sviđa
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
Brzi pregled: A hipster crash pad that trades front desk service for vibes, iPads, and excellent pizza.
Pregledano od @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.
Gost koji je boravio ovdje je rekao
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

Najbolji izbor
Back laneway rooms – they offer a gritty-cool view of garages/CN Tower and are 'strangely quiet'
Room 201 – noted for great natural light and a view of the mural across the street
Sobe koje treba izbegavati
First-floor rooms near the lobby/bar if you're a light sleeper (music/chatter)
Genie za zahteve za sobe – kopiraj i lepak
“I'd love a room facing the back laneway for the quietest sleep and the 'rear window' city views, please.”
Česta pitanja i skriveni saveti
Sve što zaista trebate da znate pre nego što rezervirate.
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.
Where do I park?
There is no hotel parking. Use the Green P lot (Carpark 288) at 292 Brunswick Ave, practically next door.
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.
Insajderski saveti
✨
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 stvari koje trebate znati prije nego što krenete
💡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.
