Horatio Clarence Hocken (12 October 1857 – 18 February 1937) was a Canadian politician and Mayor of Toronto.

Born in Toronto in what was pre-Confederation Canada West, Hocken had a media career as a publisher and journalist.

From 1912 to 1914, Hocken was Mayor of Toronto.

Hocken's career in federal politics began when he was elected to the Canadian House of Commons for the Unionist Party at the Toronto West riding in the 1917 federal election. He was re-elected in Toronto West in the 1921 federal election, this time under the Conservative Party. When the riding boundaries were changed in 1924, he was re-elected in the Toronto West Centre riding in the 1925 and 1926 federal elections. He served in the 13th to the 16th Canadian Parliaments consecutively until he left federal politics in 1930.

Hocken was appointed a member of the Senate of Canada from 30 December 1933 and remained in that office until death.
