A must-visit for hockey enthusiasts! We had a fantastic experience here with plenty to explore. The 30-minute movie included with admission showcased some legendary hall of fame players. The trophy room was particularly impressive, allowing us to see all the cups up close. Definitely a top spot for hockey fans.

It was interesting to check out the vintage players' jerseys and memorabilia. However, I felt there was a lack of items from current NHL players. Coming from a place with a well-presented hall of fame, it would be a nice touch to feature current uniforms more prominently. My son loved the interactive shooting and goal-tending area. Overall, a worthwhile visit for any true hockey fan, especially seeing the Stanley Cup!

The Hockey Hall of Fame is an amazing place filled with history, artifacts, and interactive exhibits. The NHL and international sections were definite highlights, and the hands-on experiences were really enjoyable. Just a heads up, the entrance can be a bit tricky to locate as it's inside the mall on the lower level. It's accessible from Front Street, next to the Hockey Store—follow the left path into the mall and take the escalators down. Whether you're a die-hard fan or simply curious about hockey, this is a fantastic experience!

An incredible venue for hockey fans! The interactive exhibits and history were engaging. My 10-year-old had a blast learning about esteemed hockey legends and exploring the impressive memorabilia on display. He was especially amazed to see the Stanley Cup and the goalie mask room. We spent around 2 hours here, and the location is conveniently just a block from Union Station. It was relatively quiet in the morning, but it got busier as noon approached. Just a tip: Enter through the side doors next to the hockey store, as the street corner entrance isn't accessible. It's one level down, close to the food court and Pigeon Coffee.

Visiting the Hockey Hall of Fame was an excellent experience! There were numerous uniforms and equipment used by famous Canadian hockey players. I also found a variety of jerseys, memorabilia, and flags representing different Canadian provinces as well as other countries like Germany and even North Korea. This museum provided a fascinating glimpse into hockey history! I highly recommend checking out this hall of fame museum if you're interested in learning about Canada’s national sport, ice hockey, or the country’s history in general!
