The Best Hostels in Toronto

The best hostels in Toronto satisfy three crucial criteria. They're cheap, conveniently located and comfortable. While anything but luxurious, these are places where travellers can count on basic amenities and, typically, a sense of camaraderie with fellow globetrotters. As you might expect of a city once hailed as "New York run by the Swiss," from an international perspective, our hostels are clean and safe. There aren't that many of them to be found around town — say about 20 or so — but of these about half standout as superior to the rest of the pack for one reason or another. And while locals might not care too much about the state of Toronto's hostels, try to bear in mind that young tourists help to contribute to the vibrancy of cities — so it's always good to draw as many travellers as possible.
