Pimblett’s B&B is located in the cosmopolitan area of Cabbage Town still within walking distance of Toronto’s bars and clubs. Cabbage Town historical Victorian houses are gradually being gentrified encouraging some of the conspicuous locals to move on and ply their trades elsewhere. If you like open plan, clear lines and spaciousness then Pimblett’s B&B is not for as this Toronto bed and breakfast excels in clutter with a little dust, reflecting the eccentricity of its owner Geoffrey. Off street parking available at back of the house.

Amenities: Good, rooms have private bathrooms with mixed match linen. Our room had a small colour TV with cable and wireless Internet.

Hospitality: Very Good as Geoffrey is an enjoyable character and is of assistance for guests to plan their day. The same every day cooked breakfast is good and is great to interact with the other guests at the table.

Overall Comfort: Good especially if you enjoy extremely firm bed, a little sparse in storage, the decks are great in the summer. Drapes do block most of the daylight.

Value for Money: Very good as being about half the cost of other B&Bs as long you do not mind the clutter and some of the unfinished details to remodeling projects.
