The Only Backpacker's Inn

We are unable to accommodate local (Greater Toronto Area) guests.

Welcome to The Only Backpacker's Inn — your home away from home.
The vibe here? Totally relaxed. Upstairs, we’ve got a laid-back hostel; downstairs, you’ll find our full-service espresso bar, and right next to that, a cozy little pub stocked with over 200 beers from around the world. If it exists, we probably have it! Follow us on Facebook and Instagram for photos and videos of our latest events! Instagram - theonlybackpackers & facebook.com/theonlybackpackersinn

What we offer:

Free Wi-Fi
Breakfast included
Air-conditioned rooms
Two large private patios
One huge licensed patio

A few things to keep in mind:

We’re all about the traveler experience — so we can’t accommodate local guests from the Greater Toronto Area.

Guests must be 19 or older, and you’ll need government-issued photo ID (foreign passport or driver’s license) at check-in. We’ll take a quick photocopy to confirm your non-GTA residency.

Check-in is from 2 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the café, and late check-in (9 p.m. to 2 a.m.) happens at the bar. After 2 a.m., we close for the night and won’t reopen until 8 a.m. — we do not have 24-hour reception.

Free cancellation is available up to 48 hours before your reservation. After that, we’ll charge for the first night.

We’ll pre-authorize your card and charge a deposit equal to one night’s stay 48 hours before arrival. If that payment doesn’t go through, your reservation will be canceled, and we’ll notify you by email.

22.61% tax is not included in the room rate — it’ll be added at check-in.

If you booked through Hostelworld, please note that their fees go to them — not us. You’ll still need to pay your deposit directly to us to secure your booking.

See you soon!
