The city’s only art and boutique hotel, Revival occupies the former Peabody Court Hotel building. It was also the site of the first Museum of Art exhibition in 1923 and is found in the historic Mount Vernon neighbourhood. Guests can expect both the art and the playlists to be thoughtfully curated; a live DJ plays vinyl on a Friday and Saturday night in the vicinity of a lit sign stating “Let Your Life Proceed by Its Own Design”, somewhat of a motto here. The food and drink has an artisan feel too, with the Topside restaurant, Dashery Café and the B-Side Cocktail Lounge.
