Close to theatre district

Great location

Awesome location; a real community feel

Great and affordable place to stay! You can feel how this hotel and bar is a labour of love. The rooms aren’t fancy, but if you’re looking for a good location and enjoy the jazz, I highly recommend Rex.

TIFF 50 - September 12th to 13th, 2025

My room was clean and even the shared bathroom was nice. My only gripes are not having a view out the window, that the “mild” chicken wings were more like mid BBQ flavour, the electronic band that was performing, and no chocolate milk and French toast during breakfast. I still had a good stay though. It’s an 8-minute walk from the Princess of Wales Theatre.

Adrian, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good stay! Was in town for a concert, and took advantage of the Jazz bar for dinner and the show on the first night. (Mark McLean and his band was great!) Obviously with the age of the property it's not going to be 5 stars all around, but the stay was comfortable and quiet. Was a little farther then I had expected to the Budweiser Stage, but transit in Toronto is great. Would stay again!

Couple getaway for live music

Anniversary trip to Toronto during Jazz Festival. If you are looking for a gem in the middle of everything, this is it! We booked a standard double bed with private bathroom. It was the perfect blend of value and amenities with rich historical atmosphere.

Love the Rex Hotel, the Room was clean comfortable and nicely cooled with the air runni ng and keeping us comfortable. The lunch we had was delicious and accompanied with a beautiful jazz set. Everything you need is within walking distance and the ataff was welcoming and friendly. Would not hesitate to stay here again. Thank- you Rex Hotel for making our stay in Toronto memorable!
