Stayed at Clarence Castle last year for one night while visiting Toronto. It was clean (bedrooms and bathrooms) and not too loud of a hostel. DIdn't see a lot of people but the place seemed pretty low key. It was in a good location although it was a walk away from most attractions whether it be shopping, restaurants, bars. There... more

Stayed with my girlfriend for 9 days, would recommend this place to anyone. The place was clean and the staff and other guests were friendly, we had a few money issues while in Toronto and Danny would go out of his way to help us. Top place would stay there anytime. more

We have stayed twice, once in the dorms and once in the private rooms. The dorms are comfy and have their own bathroom. The private rooms are great with a flat... more

I am a fairly well traveled traveler and believe that Clarence Castle is the best hostel I have stayed in. Danny and Oliver and extremely helpful and friendly and the location of the hostel (looking over the very pleasant Clarence Square) and is fantastic for exploring Toronto, the entertainment district and getting to and fro Union Station. The hostel also... more
