I am aware that Muslims consider the toilet to be an unclean place - and for not just hygiene reasons.

Can somebody please explain to me, what the reasons for this are? (And point out reference to Qu'ran and Sunnah)

Thank you.

Go and look in a Mosque toilet and you will think its an unclean place too!

Seriously, this is because a toilet is full of Najis things, like urine, blood and various other human by-products which don't bear mentioning. Najis things are not very good, as they break wudhu and soil clothes.

Also, there is the Jinn/devil/shaytaan issue which another person brought up too. Add these things together and you get a very nasty place.
