"Why book? Sometimes, you just need a fancy hotel in a fancy neighborhood. Go ahead and live your best life at the Park Hyatt—you can worry about the credit card bill when you get home. Set the scene Toronto’s imposing high-rises aren’t exactly known for their charm, but the Park Hyatt manages to lean into the proportions and scale of 4 Avenue Road with nothing short of absolute glamor. The brutalist porte cochère ceiling is lined with tiny lights which look like an overhead starscape–from the moment you show up, you can’t help but feel like a VIP here. The backstory The Park Hyatt Toronto reopened in 2021 after an enormous four-year renovation including the addition of a residential south tower with Park Hyatt residences. She’s back, she’s better than ever, and she has once again staked her claim as one of Yorkville’s most posh, plum places to rest your head. The rooms The 219 rooms including 40 suites perfectly nail that balance of minimalism and luxury without seeming spare, or overly precious. Expect lots of wood paneling, mid-century modern touches, velvet furniture, and spacious white marble bathrooms with dreamy soaking tubs. The amenities are no less luxe, including: Bluetooth speakers; 55” inch HDTV’s worthy of those wide open proportions; blackout curtains; and Le Labo toiletries. You’ll want to lay down, stretch out, and get comfy here. Food and drink Note this: bring your parents to Joni, bring your dates to Writers Room. Fine dining restaurant Joni serves elevated takes on seasonal Canadian fare, including a 7-course dinner tasting menu with optional Ontario wine pairings, and a sceney afternoon high tea that makes for a great interlude between bouts of luxury shopping in the neighborhood. Upstairs you’ll find the storied Writers Room Bar on the 17th floor. It has its own dinner and lunch scenes (7 days a week, and Thursdays through Sundays, respectively), as well as live DJ music on Sunday afternoons. Because when you’re at the Park Hyatt sipping on mixology, noshing on beef tartare with brown butter and parmesan, and taking in those rooftop views, there’s no such thing as the Sunday scaries. The spa If a Park Hyatt has a spa, you know it’s going to be good, and the Stillwater Spa here more than delivers. It’s intimate, the changing areas are stocked with heavenly Aromatherapy & Associates products, the customizable facial treatments use high-quality Skinceuticals products, and the sauna and steam room feel like a true urban escape. The neighborhood/area It’s smack-dab in the middle of Yorkville: posh, glitzy, maybe a little pretentious, but that’s all part of the fun. Chanel, Holt Renfrew, and the Royal Ontario Museum are all within a stone’s throw. The service Despite the luxurious design and rarified ethos, the service is still personable and relaxed. Eco effort The hotel adheres to Hyatt’s global standards for sustainability, with robust waste and recycling initiatives, extensive energy and water recycling programs, and the use of World of Hyatt digital keys through your phone, to reduce the number of plastic room keys in use. Accessibility The hotel is fully accessible, with elevators and regulation-sized doorways. Anything left to mention? The hotel offers a complimentary house car service within a two-mile radius, so you can shop Bloor Street like the VIP you were born to be." - Todd Plummer

"In 2021, this grande dame in tony Yorkville reopened after a titanic four-year renovation, which included an overhaul of the property, and the addition of Park Hyatt residences. Now, every piece of this hotel is an excellent study in modern luxury: from the sleek and contemporary design that feels luxe yet cozy, to the personable service, to an intimate spa and to the revitalization of its iconic 17th-floor Writers Room Bar. See, be seen, live your best life–few hotels can capture the scale and glamor of a Park Hyatt." - Sandra Ramani, Todd Plummer
