How long is your waiting list?
It is difficult to give an exact answer to this question due to everyone having a different desired occupancy year and our limited availability of each apartment style. The best way to know where you are on the wait list is to reach out the Retirement Department Assistant directly at 416-964-9231 ext. 232.
Do you offer parking for Retirement Tenants?
We do offer assigned parking spots in an outdoor lot for a monthly fee.
Do you have any exercise programs?
A daily exercise class is offered Monday through Friday for all Tenants. You can also book sessions with our qualified physiotherapist for a subsided fee.
Belmont House is located on over an acre of beautiful green space in the heart of Toronto. With many gardens and pathways, getting your daily exercise is easy and fun!
What kind of Recreation activities are available?
There is a wide range of recreation activities, special events and outings planned every month for Tenants to participate in. A calendar is disbursed monthly and posters are put up around the home to keep everyone up to date with the upcoming activities.
Some examples are: Book club, poetry club, current events club, 2x weekly live entertainment, trivia, cocktail parties trips to the Stratford festival, museum trips, shopping trips, parties in the gardens, and many more. There is never a dull moment at Belmont House!

The staff have really done a remarkable job keeping our family close while we have to physically stay apart.
Knowing that Mum is so well taken care of physically – and also mentally and emotionally – provides so much comfort to our family. We know that we don’t have to worry about her and can just enjoy our time together.
We can really feel the love the staff have for our Dad. They always have time for his jokes and stories and he is so well cared for. We know we made the best decision for him.
I’ve never been bored at Belmont! There is always so much to do and I can tell the recreation staff really care about what they do. The mid week current events group is a highlight of my week and full of interesting debate! I also really look forward to the live entertainment twice a week. Feels so luxurious to have such talented musicians visiting our home!
