despite its location in the center of the financial district, the Shangri-La Toronto feels like a place of refuge from the city outside.
“The sophisticated interiors are a joint effort by B+H CHIL Design, in charge of the guest rooms and health club, and Office of McFarlane…”
“In the Financial District, behind the Shangri-La Toronto’s shiny glass-and-steel exterior is an oasis of serenity.”
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Set along University Avenue directly across from the Four Seasons Centre, the hotel bridges the city's lively theater and financial districts.
The rooms
Floor-to-ceiling windows frame downtown vistas, while generous marble bathrooms offer walk-in rain showers, deep tubs, and discreet in-mirror screens.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
The 20-meter indoor saltwater lap pool sits under natural skylights, flanked by curtained daybed cabanas and an infrared sauna.
The spa
Hammam steam rooms host traditional black soap gommage scrubs, and a mosaic whirlpool looks out over the city.
Dogs stay too.
Restaurant
Bosk
Seasonal Canadian cooking leads the menu, served beside a sculpted wood-block wall and floor-to-ceiling windows.
The decor is subtle, modern, and elegant: earth-tone furnishings, bamboo carpeting, mahogany paneling, and luxurious fabrics, plus lots of natural light.
The Lobby Lounge & Bar
Cocktails sweetened with rooftop apiary honey and dozens of loose-leaf teas are poured beneath hand-blown glass pendants.
