It's nice. It's a hotel where the focus is on the purpose of your trip. In other words, we were in Toronto to see Toronto, not for a hotel experience. It feels like a former college dormitory (a hospital is situated about one block north...could it have been a residence for nursing students)? I was entertained by the co-ed softball... More

Some prior reviews mentioned that this hotel is in a run-down neighborhood. It's not like that. There is a housing project in a different part of the Alexandra Park block, and the area is ethnic. But the hotel itself is located in a quiet residential part of the block. People walk through the area and it's just fine. It's also... More

It fit the bill for what I was looking for. It was about a 20 minute walk from where I had to be. There is a park across the street. The room (kitchenette) was clean and it offered me the ability to cook if I wanted to. Close to public transportation. About an hour to the airport (Pearson) at a... More

The Alexandra was just what we seeking for an economical stay in the central city area of Toronto. Three of us had a room with one double and one single bed. The hotel is in a quiet residential neighborhood just outside of Chinatown off Dundas St., and close by to Kensington Market. The kitchenette saved us money on breakfasts, buying... More

I spent 5 nights at this hotel. Room was basic but a good size and kept clean. Kitchenette was very useful. Location was excellent. People who worked here were very helpful. It was great to have parking. It was quiet at night. I would stay here again. More

We spent one night at this hotel. The room & toilette were cleanwith fresh bed sheets and towels etc. an there was a kitchenette in the room with the basic utensils etc. Nothing hi-fi about anything in the hotel. The super market is just close by. Internet worked fine too. The room we stayed in was very small. There is... More

I stayed at this hotel recently when my relatives were visiting Toronto. They had their little kid with them and couldn't find a suite for a reasonable price so I just booked the hotel for me and let them stay in my condo. As I only needed a place to sleep I looked for the cheapest place around and this... More

I've stayed at this hotel two times now and have to say that it's certainly a good value. I paid under $100 CAD per night on a weekend when other hotels in the area were charging over $250 a night. Staying at the Alexandra was definitely easy on the wallet. Having said that, you get what you pay for. The... More

Before my best friend moved to Toronto, she and I stayed at the Alexandra a couple of times for our nights of clubbing or concerts. Because it's meant for long-term stay, each room I've ever had has had a stove, sink, bar fridge, cable TV, and a full bathroom. Yeah, it's not in the best area (in fact, walking around... More
