Alt Hotel Toronto Airport

Had bookend stays at this hotel coming and going down south. It isn't clear on the website, but to get there you find the trains to the City and go to the Viscount Station. There is no charge and they come every five minutes (with a countdown showing to the next train). You have to go outside a short way to get to the main entrance which doesn't look like a main entrance - more like a basement door. Check in was fast, friendly and efficient. Room was fine. Doors to the bathroom don't really close fully so if you are with someone, you better be comfortable together! The bed was comfortable but only single queen beds available, which we found small. ||||The highlight was the restaurant, which was open until 12:45 am with a reduced menu, but which included the wood fired pizzas. They were delicious! Service was excellent and since we were flying a long WestJet flight during the catering strike, it was an exceptional surprise.

Just a quick comment to confirm all the super-positive reviews of Alt Hotel. We stayed here two nights after arriving early evening. Check in was quick, staff were so friendly (well, they are Canadian, so of course!) the bar served great beer and even better pizzas, the room was surprisingly big for a normal hotel and even more so for an airport hotel. Bed was big and comfy, showers hot and strong. We used Toronto as a layover from Iceland back to NZ (and to see Niagara Falls) so the convenience for a midday checkout was perfect. Totally recommended, add our name to the list of those who would stay here again without hesitation.

I attended a four day meeting with several international attendees this past week. Alt Hotel was selected because of it's proximity to the airport. (a short walk to the airport rail system). ||The hotel appears to be fairly new. It had a modern, artsy feel. It was clean. The front desk staff were courteous and prompt as one would expect. ||I was kind of surprised when I got to my room. It was pretty small, cold and had a strange layout. I had to search a bit to find a closet as well as the coffee maker. But the room was clean and fresh. The bed was comfortable. Pillows were nice, mattress was average. Shower had a good strong spray. ||I was on the 6th floor and as I sat reading near the main window one afternoon, I was startled by some window cleaners that were on one of those moving scaffolds, and came to my level to clean just as I was sitting there. || I drove, so I needed parking and for a reasonable fee there was outdoor parking available a short walk from the hotel entrance. But it was pretty limited and a tight squeeze for larger vehicles. No signs of any sort of security that I could see. ||The hotel restaurant was basically a pizzeria. But they did have a breakfast menu that included omelets. Our meeting group ate lunch there every day and I will say that the food was pretty good. I had pizza one day, soup and sandwich another, and a pasta dish the other two days. ||The meeting room wasn't great. Not soundproof, so if people were milling about outside the door they could easily be heard. The info-tech (IT) stuff was bare minimum. But the hotel staff did provide lots of tasty treats and a nice variety of beverages throught the day. ||This would not have been my first choice for a four day conference. But it sufficed.

Alt was easy to find, and park while checking in. The parking garage was even closer, next door. The room and bed were spacious and comfortable. Had a lobby bar which had great pizzas. Park car on fourth level, that’s the level you will come back to. It was easy to park, and in the morning transport to Pearson. About 3 min on train. It was awesome. When we came home was a breeze, get in car and drive home.

Friendly, helpful staff. Great location, comfy bed, excellent facilities. Nice restaurant open late (ordered a pizza at 12:15 am!). Highly recommend any pasta and the pesto chicken sandwich). Easy access to the 25 minute train to downtown Toronto. Looking forward to my next visit.

This is a nice quiet hotel and perfect as a layover before taking our flight out of Canada the next day. This hotel is pretty interesting with lounge areas in the lobby to sit and have a drink with friends. Our floor had some pretty serious mood cool lighting once we got out of the elevator. The room felt like a modern condo (minus kitchen) with a hallway to get to the bedroom area. Nice relaxing vibe. We would stay here again because of how close it is to the airport (train stop away).

I stayed at the Alt hotel in March 2024 and really enjoyed my experience. Check in was super easy and the person at the front desk (I didn’t get his name) was very friendly. I realized during my stay that I forgot one of my charging cables for my phone and I want to thank and commend Mark for going above and beyond to find a cable that could work, all with a smile on his face. He was so kind and his effort was an example of unbelievable customer service! People like Mark are rare and truly appreciated!

I arrived at the hotel much earlier than anticipated (and well before check in time) due to my flight being changed for weather related issues. I arrived at the desk and indicated I knew it was too early for check-in, but wanted to at least store my suitcase. The staff stored my suitcase, but said to come back in a few hours and they would likely have a room ready for me. Two hours later I was in my room! The service was great at the front desk on check in and check out.||I also had a few meals at the hotel restaurant. The food was delicious and the service was amazing. A special shout out to the restaurant staff - Jose, Jenn and Denise.||My hotel room was very clean. The location was easy to get to and from the airport. This was my second stay at this hotel and it did not disappoint.
