Thank you to our hosts. ##### Stephen Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### John, Halifax, N.S. Sep 30, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Do yourself a favour and stay here I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Boatel in downtown Toronto. It's difficult to convey how great this place is because it's so unique, and partly about the experience itself. The owners and staff were fantastic, the location is as good as, or better than, any of the major hotels in the area, breakfast was delicious, the place was really clean, and the bed was super comfy. If you're looking for a gigantic hotel room to spend your time in this isn't the place, but if you're looking for a convenient, comfy, friendly, memorable Toronto experience, stay here. I'll definitely be going back. ##### John Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tanya, dawson creek, bc Aug 31, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Memorable experience What a treat!!! I absolutely loved my 2 night stay aboard the Boatel. The hosts were friendly and helpful, enjoyed breakfast with the other guests, fantastic location and the CN Tower was just outside my bedroom window. Comfy bed, lovely room. One of the highlights of my vacation. :) ##### Tanya Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Zaz1102, Bradford Aug 8, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Nice hotel with excellent view.

Staying on the Boatel was a unique experience that I thoroughly enjoyed. The breakfasts were wonderful, the hosts amazing and it was nice to spend time getting to know the other guests. I was in Toronto for the first time and found this location to be more than I expected. The downtown waterfront is very accessible, lots of green space and the Boatel is very centrally located in the area. I had a great view of the Canada Day fireworks at the CN Tower and the in the harbour. ##### Lacey Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2017 ### 8/10 Good #### susan, h Jun 24, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Peaceful boat on the lake. Really enjoyed our week on the Boatel. Hosts were lovely, and the hostel was a peaceful retreat from the city on the doorstep. Sleeping quarters very cosy and comfortable ...but not very much room . The peacefulness and comfort made up for this though . Would highly recommend as somewhere a little . different . Also lovely gardens as you step off boat and walk to downtown ##### susan Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### CapnK, Ottawa Sep 22, 2013 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Awesome B&B I made this booking because all hotels were full, but it turns out to be the best stay in Toronto.
