Toronto Hostel for International Travellers The best way to describe your new Home-Away-From-Home is relaxed. If it can be got...we have it. So much to do!
The chill vibe runs through the hostel upstairs, flows down into the full service espresso bar/cafe and into our comfy little local pub which stocks over 200 different beers from around the world. Close to the subway means close to the action. With the subway being mere steps from our back-door, you can travel anywhere in the city within a half hour or so. With so much to do in Toronto on any given day, you can't go wrong. Feel free to ask if you need help getting around. If you'd rather relax after a long trip, there is The Only Cafe right downstairs with over 200 beers from around the world and events almost nightly.

Escape the city with us! 🌲🏙️
Toronto has so much more to offer beyond the downtown skyline. Maicol and Mateo took us on a trip to explore Rouge National Urban Park — 8.8 km of gorgeous nature trails, picnic spots, and great vibes.
We host regular outdoor trips and local tours to help our guests connect and experience the real Toronto.
Ready to discover Toronto’s hidden green gems? Come stay with us and join the fun! Video credit to Maicol
