Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
The front doors open directly into ByWard Market, surrounded by outdoor produce stalls and bustling taverns.
The rooms
Compact, modern rooms keep things straightforward, designed as low-maintenance crash pads after a night out.
The water
Bring a swimsuit.
The pool and gym
The indoor heated pool is enclosed by tall glass, and the sixth-floor gym steps out onto an outdoor terrace.
Moxy Bar
A ribbed green counter anchors the lounge, where curved leather banquettes open directly onto an outdoor patio.
At the table
A light-wood communal table and teal banquettes sit beside tall windows for morning coffee and quick snacks.
How it began

The 1913 brick building once stored wholesale groceries, and later served as the early headquarters for Shopify.

The eight vibes
Design
Built around a vision. Even the door handles have a designer.

Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.
Local
It could only be here. You wake up knowing where you are.
Social
Where the city goes out. The bar is full and the night is young.
Heritage
A building with a story. Once a palace, a monastery, a station.
Wellness
You leave feeling new. Rest, sweat, soak and sleep like a stone.
Classic
The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.
Resort
A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
The scene
Lively
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Central
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.

Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Secluded
A place apart: the property is the destination.
