  • Accommodation in Toronto

Where you will live during your stay in Toronto is an important decision. At Hansa, we have full time staff dedicated to assisting our students in finding appropriate lodging with Canadian families. To contact the homestay department directly call Tel:416-485-5385 or send an email to homestay@hansacanada.com.

Hansa's homestay program offers students a private room in a family home with 16 meals per week (2 meals per day from Monday to Friday and 3 meals per day on weekends). The cost is:

$850 CAN for the first four weeks
$200 CAN for each additional week
$40 CAN for each additional day

All families have been carefully selected and are visited regularly to ensure quality service. You will receive the name, address, and telephone number of the host family about two weeks before your departure. Flight information should be confirmed as early as possible or, at the latest, two weeks prior to arrival.

Homestay fees should be sent at least two weeks before the starting date of the course and are not refundable. Students are free to change their accommodation after the first month. However, they must give at least three weeks notice to the host family if they decide to change their family or move to an apartment.

Residences are the ideal housing alternative in Toronto for students that are not interested in living with a family. Below you will find a list of recommended accommodations that operate independently of Hansa Language Centre. Students should contact the residence, youth hostel, or hotel directly for information or bookings. Residence prices generally range between $500 to $1000 per month (not including meals).

After being in Toronto for a few months, many students like to find there own apartments with friends or classmates. Bulletin boards with a list of available rooms for rent can be found on the second floor of Hansa's Yonge Street campus and on the third floor of the Eglinton campus. Furnished rooms generally cost between $400 to $700 per month.

Other sources for finding a room or apartment in Toronto include:

www.viewit.ca

www.craigslist.ca

* Always be cautious of scams when renting a room from someone that you don't know. Students should always meet face to face with the landlord and visit the apartment personally before giving any money. Payments by cheque or credit card are the safest methods of payment, as they will provide proof of the transaction.
