Best Luxury Hotels in Downtown Toronto

Not quite reaching the dizzying heights of the St Regis, yet still one of the city’s loftiest hotels, the Shangri-La is found in the Entertainment District. 202 spacious rooms have floor-to-ceiling windows for a view of the downtown, iPad controls, teepees for kids and decor that blends classic North American hotel luxury with traditional Asian style. Take afternoon tea in the Lobby Lounge surrounded by large paintings, sculptures and an Italian handcrafted Fazioli piano; dine in the signature restaurant, bosk; and experience the Miraj Hammam Spa, a Middle East-inspired urban retreat.

The tallest residential building in Canada, the St Regis skyscraper allows guests to sleep at up to 900 feet. It’s one of few Toronto hotels to have Forbes Five Star and Five Diamond ratings, as well as an infinity-edged 61-foot pool filled with heated saltwater, a spa on the 31st floor that provides champers after treatments and the brand’s signature butler service. Weary travellers are greeted with a hot towel and sparkling water on arrival, before being escorted to suites with Nespresso coffee machines, in-mirror bathroom TVs, heated marble bathroom floors, gas fireplaces, 550-thread-count Italian sheets and Serta beds

Relish more of their Japanese cuisine, French-made salads, sandwiches and other services, including valet parking.

The Ritz Carlton is well known for its 5-star amenities. But, before you enjoy Ritz Carlton’s facilities, you will love their glass façade and interior nature décor of modern materials and art collections from across Canada that speaks of luxury and beauty.
