I had my bridal shower at the venue and will definitely be recommending this place to all of my friends. Rish was... extremely accommodating and very patient. The venue itself is beautiful and has lots of character with the exposed brick and big windows. The food was good. Parking was easier than I thought.read more

My partner and I will not be staying here again. There was no door to the bathroom, I felt uneasy because of the lack... of privacy. The bed was really uncomfortable and felt really old. I woke up with lower back pain. To add insult to injury, the manager Daniel was rude and provided horrible customer service. The only thing that was good about the experience is the location and the okay price, but we definitely could have found a better Airbnb for the price.read more

On our second night of a 2 nights stay, there were 16 calls that were made to the room at all hours of the night. After... the 7th call, we left the phone off the hook but the phone kept ringing despite that until we unplugged the phone line at 7 in the morning to sleep for another 2 hours. When we informed the front desk, they seemed unaware of what was going on until the other guests at the hotel also complained. They also then informed us that their phone system was hacked but no one let us know if our credit card information was hacked as well and no one offered to apologize or reimburse us for a night of little to no sleep. There was also a bug in the bathroom, the internet was not working and they did not serve breakfast despite the mention of a $7 breakfast which is why I have given this place a poor rating. I will not be booking another stay here in future.read more

I had my wedding here at hotel Ocho couple weeks ago and I absolutely love it. Great atmosphere and great people to... work with. Hotel Ocho was extremely kind and understanding especially during the pandemic. I am so grateful I got to spend one of my best days at Hotel Ocho. Would recommend to anybody if they are consider doing their wedding here.read more

3 stars is fair for this 3 star hotel which could easily get a 5 star rating if it weren’t for a few issues. The... positive is that the staff is friendly, the rooms clean, and the noise was surprisingly well contained for being on such a busy street just two floors up. The black out shades were pretty good and a must for people who spend as much time in hotels as I do. Unfortunately, the bed isn’t great quality…not bad per se, but springy and kind of hard. I wish they would buy beds that were a little nicer. The circular looking chairs in the room were the most uncomfortable I’ve ever sat in. Like the worst chairs ever. The worst thing tho is that there is no door on the bathroom. Not even a door to the toilet area! Everything is tiled and there’s even a big window that looks into the bathroom which has a shade but it does NOT keep the sound out, so unless you love hearing your partner take a dump in all it’s reverberating glory, you may not vibe with this shocking omission. I really don’t know what the owners were thinking here. No one wants this in a hotel, I promise you. Otherwise, the price is decent and the location is central. Oh, and be careful of the steps when entering with big bags…for some reason there is no ramp to make it easy on people with big bags or especially mobility issues.read more

Didn’t stay at the hotel. Lounge downstairs is a cool relaxed vibe. Good location, super close to Chinatown. Great... cocktails, a little pricey. Unfortunately the service, not the best tonight, understandable for a Friday night when she was working mostly solo.read more

This was the easiest thing we did for our wedding. The staff made everything so easy and flawless. There were no hidden... fees or changes at the end of the night, and they honored their end of the contract and then some.We stayed in one of the suites and had a great night's rest on a very comfortable bed.Thank you so much Rish for everything ❤ you made our special day go smoothly.read more

Rooms were smaller than I had expected. Bathroom was huge but Im not a fan of the sliding doors for the washroom.... Excellent for a single person but not really for couples. Would have been better had the unit come with a mini fridge of some sort. Very clean and staff was great. More for single travellers and people on buisness trips.read more

Was denied a room here due to my brain injury disability and mask exemption. I believe covid-19 protocols are... important to keep people like me who medically can't wear a mask. Was straight up told I can't have a room because law states they can't ask for proof of disability. I always carry proof but am not legally able to be asked for it. I was denied a room due to the fact I am disabled that is what it all comes down to and I hope all disabled people looking for hotels see this. Even human rights commission was disgusted and verified they can not ask for proof of disability. And have offered to help with the incident So my partner had to cancel their reservation so we could go elsewhere. Thank God most of the hotels follow the rulesread more

Can't go to wrong for the price however they did better and I got a free upgraded room

Room was pretty underwhelming. Five channels on the tv, pretty outdated in terms of the upkeep of the room, but the... feel of it was pretty neat with exposed brick. The shower didn’t look well kept...lots of gross moldy stuff at the bottom of the shower door. Staff was really nice and that was a plus. My big issue is with the bed- it was super old and super uncomfortable. Like one of those beds that when you sit on it it feels like it came out of your grandparent’s basement. Definitely I have some chronic pain issues so I’m more sensitive than most, but I woke the first day with a very sore shoulder and the second day it was worse. By the time I drove back to Ottawa it was really painful and I’ve now been to emerg twice with excruciating pain and will need to go to physio...all from sleeping on this mattress that was really not up to par. It sounds insane, but the mattress was really, really hard. Again, if something causes a little bit of inflammation for me it is really problematic and usually grows into something super painful that requires medical treatment, but I wanted to post in case anyone else is thinking about staying here- if you have any kind of pain disorders or a bad back or any other thing that could flare up if a mattress is really low quality, stay somewhere else. Definitely not worth a good deal on room prices.read more

I booked through the app snaptravel and got a great deal. When I got to the hotel, I was pleasantly surprised to learn... that I got an upgraded room. The room was massive with huge windows facing spadina and whatever the other street is called. The bathroom was open and huge with a soaker tub with automated blinds to give some privacy. The walk in shower was clean and they provide you with toiletries. The bed was huge. The only strange thing was that the tv was right at the foot of the bed. Everything was clean and spotless. The only bummer was that the bar was closed. If you can get room 21, for sure get it!read more

the hotel stay was ok -- the room was clean, but not as clean as I wanted.. like little marks on the walls and on the... headboard. and there was no cable, only 5 channels. Went for a staycation and was shocked at no cable, I mean this was part of why I wanted to get a hotel room. Also the room had no fridge and no glass for water, it was very underwhelming.BUT the bed was soft, and the blankets and pillows were great. and the exposed brick and wood ceiling were nice.read more

I really loved my time at the Ocho. Way cooler than your typical hotel. All the rooms are loft style, so high ceilings,... brick walls, lots of old wood. I think it was an old factory or workshop that was converted. Makes for a very cool place to stay. On top of that everyone working there were super friendly and helpful. I like the independent owner feel of the business. It's also right in the heart of downtown. I definitely would stay again!read more

We got married at Hotel Ocho last October and it was fantastic. Everything went off without a hitch and we both felt... so relieved to have an enjoyable wedding. Our anxiety was palpable at times, but both Rish and Emily managed everything perfectly. The rest of the staff was equally up to the task and helped keep things going into the night.The food was great and fairly priced. The steak in a black peppercorn sauce was a real standout. The venue itself gave our roughly 95 guests ample room to eat, drink, and dance. Again, the staff is absolutely fantastic and really helped make the experience. Great place for weddings!read more

Had our wedding and reception at Hotel Ocho this past October. Fell in love with the modern, clean, open space and... really liked having two floors as a way to separate ceremony from dinner from party. Rish was friendly, personable and always helpful when it came to planning and answering all of our questions. Emily jumped in closer to the actual wedding date but did a fantastic job of pulling everything together and helping to coordinate the staff on the day off.Our guests had a fantastic time and complimented the modern look and feel. Service was exceptional! Location allowed for great outdoor photos.read more

My husband and I had our wedding at Hotel Ocho this past October and were blown away with the service. Before booking,... we had of course gone to see the venue. We loved the industrial vibe and knew it was the right size for our event. What we didn't know is how amazingly we would be taken care of during the entire process- start to finish. Rish, Emily and team went over and above to answer every question and make sure we had everything taken care of. Their attention to detail and precision in planning gave us the confidence we needed to be able to really relax and enjoy our big day. The wedding was gorgeous, the meal and bar service was fast and efficient and the food was honestly so delicious. Guests are still commenting on how amazing the meal was! I'd 100% recommend Hotel Ocho for any of your event needs.read more

WEDDING VENUE REVIEW From our first visit to see the venue,a year in advance, to the early hours of the morning after... our Wedding day, the staff at Hotel Ocho went above and beyond making our special day one we will never ever forget!. I would highly recommend this venue to anyone looking for that perfect rustic, create your own wedding vision, and the staff will guide you right along and help you make your vision come true! Rish and Richard throughout our planning process, made everything so easy, and were so helpful and efficient in answering any of our questions. Hotel Ocho is such a beautiful venue and I am forever grateful for their hospitality, professionalism and for the memories they helped create.read more

The bathroom door couldn’t fully close which was fine while I was staying alone but if I was not, it would be awkward.... Bed was comfortable, room was very clean and nice.

There is a smell in my room which reminds me of a funeral home. I mentioned it to the older guy at the front desk and... he laughed at me and assured me noone had died in there recently..... As if things could not get worse, there was a party or wedding or something which kept me awake till almost 1 o'clock in the morning. When I got up to check the "continental breakfast", it consisted of cereal, milk, coffee and what I can only assume was orange juice (looked more like egg nog). That is not worth 5$ in my opinion. All the warning signs were there, but I still decided to eat a snack the next day. The "sliders" were more like garlic and ground meat slapped together and cooked. Although they were tasty, they were way too heavy on the garlic. I ended up being sick the next day, which I attribute to the sliders or some combination of what I ate and drank at the hotel. My martini glass was dirty, the ketchup bottle had ketchup all over the side, the list goes on. To make matters worse, I had to go up to the bar and ask for a glass of water, then I had to go up to order my beverage, again to order my food, and lastly to pay my bill even though they have handheld machines. By the way, I was the only person in the restaurant... The lack of service and quality at this place is astonishing. I am surprised they are still in business. I will not be returning.read more

Hotel Ocho is a good place to go for a quiet, comfy chat with friends. While a very modern space, it also has very... comfortable seating. The staff is very friendly and are knowledgeable. When we asked if we could see the event and hotel space, they were willing to show us. ....no problem. Rooms look nice and clean, with nice bathrooms and all amenities. The event space us also very nice. Two levels upstairs for a meal and drinks, and downstairs there is a bigger space. Lots of windows completes the modern industrial look.read more

It's located on a main drag in Toronto. You're definately surrounded by the hustle and bustle but, the rooms are very... quiet. They're located near food(especially because of being in Chinatown) entertainment, public transportation and a bike rental station. The staff was knowledgeable and pleasant The bathroom is amazing. The main rooms are simple in decor but, impressive. The bed was amazing. Big windows with lots of natural light.read more

Loud as f*** AC that starts itself when turned off (Service program?!). The front door is locked at night and key... didn't work on front door. We were informed on check-in that key would work. Found a side door that worked due to luck. Reception said 'ops' when we questioned the front door the next day. Throughout the night you heard constant flushing. Sound level is unacceptable. When I needed to leave in the morning the elevator did not work as it was locked by an employee... Breakfast is a bad bad excuse of a breakfast. Next time I am going back to their competitors on the other side of the steet!read more
