In less than two months, the world’s biggest soccer tournament is heading to Toronto. With the anticipation comes countless soccer fans seeking affordable accommodation in Toronto without sacrificing comfort and proximity to the main events.
While hotels are quick to be considered, costs continue to soar. Temporary housing options like Premiere Suites are becoming a popular choice for this summer’s biggest event, offering travellers the convenience, space and quality they deserve at a much lower cost.
While hotels may be a suitable choice for a weekend, costs add up quickly when planning an extended stay.
For travellers looking to fully immerse themselves in the Toronto experience, the math is simple: a 30-night stay in a fully furnished suite often costs less than just 14 nights in a central hotel.

Key takeaway: Temporary housing offers the luxury of more space (and time) for a lower price throughout June and July.
The cost of living is climbing across Canada, and Toronto is no exception. When you’re on holiday, the “little things” – breakfast, laundry, parking, or even just a bottle of water, can add up surprisingly fast.
Choosing a fully furnished accommodation option like Premiere Suites not only saves you the stress of accounting for each expense, but helps reduce additional costs with these key features:
· Fully equipped kitchens to cook your own meals
· Full size fridges keeping snacks and refreshments on hand
· Dedicated parking offered at a residential rate
· All inclusive pricing – Wi-Fi, access to building amenities, bi-weekly housekeeping
· In-suite laundry for added convenience
· Tax free stays of 30 nights or longer
The price you see is rarely the price you pay when staying at a hotel. From nightly parking to breakfast and the not-so-conveniently priced mini bar finds, the final bill tends to surprise even the most seasoned travellers.
Temporary housing takes the guesswork out of your booking, with transparent, all-inclusive pricing from day one.
Choosing a space that accommodates everyone’s needs (and luggage) sets the tone for your entire trip. Whether you’re travelling as a pair, with family, or as a group, temporary housing offers 1–3-bedroom options, all fully furnished with a separate kitchen and living area, ensuring your downtime doesn’t feel crowded.
Booking a hotel based on outdated photos, inconsistent property descriptions, and unreliable third parties can be a gamble.
Professionally managed temporary housing adheres to strict industry standards and accreditations. Premiere Suites even offers a 24-hour satisfaction guarantee, ensuring guests feel at ease and welcomed from the moment they check in.
While a central location is essential, you don’t have to stay in a crowded commercial hub to be at the centre of it all. Temporary housing offers a true home away from home, situated in residential buildings designed for local living and extended stays.
For guests wanting a true Toronto experience, this means:
· Convenient access to shops, cafes and local dining options
· Building amenities like state-of-the-art fitness centres, rooftop patios, lounges
· Pet-friendly suites and amenities ensuring the entire family can join in on the excitement
· Public transport at your doorstep and high walkability scores to navigate the city
While hotels offer convenience, they feel temporary. They are fundamentally designed for shorter stays and weekend getaways, often lacking the essentials of long-term living.
Temporary housing bridges that gap. It is built to feel like a true home, allowing you to experience the city through the lens of a local. By providing a full kitchen, separate living and sleeping areas, and access to premium building amenities, suites offer the space and functionality needed to experience a new destination.
For guests staying 30 days or longer, the transition from a cramped hotel room to a spacious, fully furnished suite makes a world of difference in long-term comfort and well-being.
Guests travelling to Toronto can settle in and make our suites their own home for a minimum of 30 nights. As a temporary housing provider, we follow provincial bylaws, which means minimum stay requirements vary across Canada.
While a minimum stay applies, guests often find that booking a full month offers better value, especially during peak summer months, compared to even a two-week stay at standard Toronto hotels.
Your tickets to the big match have been purchased – now where should you stay? Choosing where to stay in Canada’s largest city can feel like a daunting task, unless you know which Toronto neighbourhoods to look for.
The name speaks for itself – entertainment lives here. You are steps from Toronto’s most iconic attractions, including the CN Tower, Rogers Centre, and the Toronto Waterfront. It’s the perfect base for travellers wanting their finger on the pulse of Toronto’s non-stop energy.
Where to stay:
Considered to be one of Toronto’s trendiest neighbourhoods, King West is in the heart of downtown. You’re steps away from an abundance of high-end restaurants, boutiques, and convenient shopping.
This urban village is known to come alive during the summer months, and best of all, it’s withing walking distance to BMO field.
Where to stay: FourFifty The Well
Situated just north of the downtown core, Midtown offers a blend of residential community with high-energy urban living. It’s a popular area for travellers wanting to avoid downtown chaos without sacrificing shopping, dining and entertainment.
Midtown also offers access to Toronto’s extensive network of trails, scenic ravines and parks.
Where to stay:
It’s easy to underestimate just how big Toronto really is. While the city centre and surrounding neighbourhoods offer an incredible mix of culture, dining, and attractions, the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) extends far beyond the downtown core.
Outer neighbourhoods and cities across the GTA offer convenient access to downtown Toronto, whether by public transit or car, while offering a more relaxed and spacious alternative to staying downtown.
These outer areas are a great choice for families and travellers looking to extend their visit beyond the city. From here, you’re within easier reach to additional Ontario attractions like Niagara Falls, Canada’s Wonderful, Provincial Parks and much more.
For those seeking comfort and flexibility, furnished suites are available across key GTA locations, including:
Furnished Suites in Scarborough
Furnished Suites in North York
Furnished Suites in Mississauga
These options make it easy to enjoy the best of both worlds - city access with extra space, comfort, and convenience.
Why limit your Toronto adventure to the four walls of a hotel when you can settle into a lifestyle built for comfort and convenience?
Choose the smarter way to stay by reserving your fully furnished apartment with Premiere Suites today and spend less time worrying about hidden fees and more time soaking up the energy of the world’s biggest soccer tournament.
