It was a renovated YMCA. They kept the character of the original building. We noticed that the onsite restaurant was always full at brunch and dinner. A very good sign.

The Metcalfe is a stunning place. The staff are exceptional, the rooms exquisite and the decor and special touches make it feel magical. The property itself is walkable to so many things, but in the end it was the people behind the counter and the staff of this place that made it one of my favourite places to stay. Ever. And I’ve stayed a lot of places.

Modern and stylish boutique hotel in a convenient downtown location. We stayed in a 6th floor corner room which was beautiful. My main negative is that it seemed impossible to give the room above 21 degrees despite setting it at 24 so it was a bit cold and the air was very dry. Heated floors in the bathroom would’ve been nice. Otherwise a great stay - plus the food at the restaurant was delicious!
