Review

Synthesized from Forbes Travel Guide

Character and identity

Rising from a downtown skyscraper, this Shangri-La fuses contemporary luxury with traditional Chinese design cues, leaning on wood, natural stone, and a striking 40-ton metal tree sculpture at the entrance that nods to nature meeting city. The light-filled lobby bar hosts live music through the day and presents its cocktail list as a set of books, while signature restaurant Bosk roams across Asian cuisines and Momofuku Noodle Bar brings David Chang's buns and chilled spicy noodles to the building. Rooms are streamlined and elegant with marble bathrooms and in-room iPads. Service is polished and thoughtful, down to handwritten notes and welcome treats.

Who's it for

Best for:
Design-minded couples and business travellers who want a calm, considered urban base in downtown Toronto with strong food and drink built in, a serious spa programme (Miraj Hammam, steam rooms, low-mist and high-intensity treatments), and meaningful fitness facilities including TechnoGym kit, an indoor pool, and spin, yoga and cardio classes.

Should look elsewhere:
Families chasing kids' programming, beach-and-sun seekers, and travellers who prefer a more overtly Western or classical European hotel aesthetic. The vertical, skyscraper format also won't suit anyone after a resort feel or sprawling grounds.

Bottom line

What sets this property apart is the depth of what's under one roof: Momofuku and Bosk for food, Miraj Hammam for the spa, a genuinely useful gym and pool, and a lobby bar with nightly live music. Book a higher-floor room for the city views, time a visit for warmer months to use the outdoor terrace, and pack light, the room is already well-stocked.
