Cleanliness
8.3
Generally praised as clean with strong housekeeping, though some noted poorly kept main-floor washrooms that detracted from impressions.
Service
9.2
Staff repeatedly described as friendly, exceptional and attentive (front desk, bar staff and housekeeping highlighted).
Location
9
Excellent central location close to the metro, shops and restaurants; convenient for getting around although vehicle/taxi approach can be awkward and proximity to a shelter was mentioned as a nighttime concern.
Room Quality
7.6
Rooms are comfortable and creatively designed, but some guests reported noisy AC, being given an occupied room on arrival, and worn plywood/gluelam furniture that reduced perceived quality.
Amenities
8.9
Strong on in-house amenities: restaurant, bar, coffee shop, included breakfast, and generous in-room filtered water; nearby undercover parking available.
Value for Money
8
Mixed signals: several guests called it great value, but others noted rising prices and an unexpected $150 deposit which felt unnecessary or distrustful.
Food and Beverage
9.1
Food and drink repeatedly praised—restaurant meals and included breakfast described as exceptional; bar service noted as attentive.
Overall Experience
9.5
Overall very positive stays and repeat visits driven by service, location and food; minor issues (furniture wear, deposit, occasional maintenance) did not dominate guests' impressions.

My usual place to stay in Toronto
Pros:

The quirkiness of the rooms, tastefully done, feeling high end industrial but not super expensive furnishings or surfaces. The products in the room are great, best hand wash ever (even bought some to take away). Free large bottles of filtered water in the room, one even in the fridge, all filled in house. Staff that greet you with a hello, front desk and housekeeing. A reasonably priced undercover garage across the street

Cons:

over the years the price has increased, but I am just cheap, all hotels have become expensive, but I still stay here.

Pros:

Everyone was friendly and helpful, Masha in the bar made our stay by being extra attentive and kind. The location was excellent for getting anywhere in the city. The included breakfast was perfect. Our room was also comfortable, although the pillows are kind of tough.

Cons:

I can’t give a 10 because the poorly kept washrooms on the main floor made a very bad impression of lack of care. Such as small thing to maintain that goes a long way.

The plywood furniture in the room is interesting and matches the decor concept, but unfortunately is looking very worn and takes away from the overall feel of the place.

A lovely boutique hotel so friendly and comfortable
Pros:

Anndore House is within two blocks of the underground, close to Bloor St and easy access to downtown. We loved the decor and the staff were thoroughly lovely. We ate at the restaurant and had a beautiful meal. We had cocktails at the bar. Very chill vibe and just what we wanted! We stayed 5 nights and we were impressed with the housekeeping team. Not one hiccup!

Cons:

Initially the Hotel was hard to approach with a vehicle as it’s a one way street with not much space in front but once you know this you can sort it out.
I didn’t really like the gluelam look of the cabinets in our room but they were functional. They didn’t really go with the rest of the room. A small thing I know. The circle mirror in our bath room was mounted on a nasty piece of wood that had previously been square. 😕
