Fodor's Expert Review Shangri-La Toronto

The Shangri-La Toronto combines the attention to service for which the brand is known with an art-focused twist on its traditional East-meets-West aesthetic. A stunning Chinese sculpture adorned with a flock of birds frames the entrance, and throughout the hotel you'll find natural woods, delicate accents, and original artwork—plus sweeping city views up University Avenue and through the Entertainment District. The hotel is home to David Chang's famed Momofuku restaurants (Noodle Bar and Kōjin) as well as a stylish bistro, Bosk. The sunlight-flooded atrium lobby is an ideal place to gather with its inviting fire, nightly live entertainment, and afternoon tea. The health club has workout equipment and a saltwater pool with private cabanas.
