Spend the day with us at Shangri-La Toronto

Looking for the perfect staycation? 

Treat yourself to a luxury experience at Shangri-La Toronto. Located in downtown Toronto, the stunning Shangri-La provides a sanctuary nestled right in the heart of the city. 

Close to all the action near both the business & entertainment districts, but still far away, high up in one of Toronto’s tallest buildings, Shangri-La offers the ultimate urban escape without having to leave the city. 

Enjoy the stylish interior, impeccable service and a wide range of world-class amenities for an unforgettable getaway!

We spent a day at Shangri-La for a (much needed!) staycation and had the best time ☺️ From the minute we walked in, we were well taken care of and every experience was memorable. We lounged poolside, sipped on tea (and champagne 😉), checked out the exclusive Shangri-La Suite and ended off our stay at their picture-perfect patio. It was just the right balance between relaxation and fun! 

Here’s a detailed breakdown of our complete day so you can start planning your mini vacay too: 

Health Club & Pool:

Start off with a workout in Shangri-La’s state-of-the-art health club, which features an air-conditioned gym, glass walls with city views and an extensive range of Technogym equipment for all your fitness needs. Whether you’re looking to get in some quick cardio or work on that pump for leg day, they’ve got everything you need for a great sweat session!

The beautifully designed, 20-metre lap pool lies under a glass roof (more panoramic city views!) with cascading water. You can take a dip in the pool, chill under the comfy cabana, soak in the hot tub, warm up in the sauna and/or detoxify in the steam room – it’s all about relaxing & recharging with all of Shangri-La’s amazing amenities!

Afternoon Tea at Lobby Lounge:

Located on the lobby level, Shangri-La’s Lobby Lounge restaurant is known as Toronto’s urban living room, where you can indulge in modern Canadian cuisine, premium teas and an exceptional selection of wines, cocktails & spirits.

You have to experience one of Lobby Lounge’s main offerings – their signature Afternoon Tea. The Afternoon Tea menu rotates seasonally and for the current summer season, the theme is The Orchard Afternoon Tea.

Inspired by “Ontario’s abundance of in-season fruits with a French boutique-pastry twist,” you’ll feel like you’re in Paris as you savour every sip of your tea (we love the Chai tea & Jasmine tea!) and enjoy the scrumptious bites.

We were blown away by the hand-sculpted trompe-l’oeil chocolate fruits (wow!) and the delicious assortment of mini sandwiches, spreads & scones, which made for a delightful afternoon (two glasses of champagne are included as well). 

Be sure to visit as soon as possible – the Orchard Afternoon Tea is served Thursday – Sunday until the end of August and is $98+ tax per person. 

Shangri-La Suite:

Located on the 17th floor, the show-stopping Shangri-La Suite is the epitome of luxury and the ultimate VIP retreat. With an open & airy concept and a contemporary take on Asian design with gorgeous Oriental accents, rich-oak-wood paneling, Japanese lattice screens & more, this intricate and thoughtfully designed suite is filled with transcendent luxury.

The captivating design is captured in all of Shangri-La’s 202 spacious rooms, which blend together modern luxury with traditional Asian decor. Each room features floor-to-ceiling windows to unlock city views and marble-clad bathrooms with heated floors and mirror-embedded televisions. We were in awe – you have to book a stay and experience the comfort & charm for yourself! 

Veuve Clicquot Patio by Shangri-La:

Open daily from noon until late, this adorable limited-time summer patio is the spot for great food & instagram-worthy pictures! Shangri-La has partnered up with the luxury global champagne, Veuve Clicquot to bring a taste of summer to Toronto with their delectable menu featuring patio favourites (crispy fried chicken, daily market oysters, bulgogi fritters & more), a live DJ spinning a mix of current & retro music and a vibrant atmosphere (just look at all the cute orange & Veuve Clicquot champagne themed touches!)

The patio is located on the lobby level and will run until Monday, October 2, 2022. Grab your besties and add it as a sweet way to end off your Toronto summer!

The Shangri-La is truly a 5-star experience! Spending the day here left us feeling relaxed and ready to conquer the week (and month!) ahead. We highly recommend booking a stay whether it’s for your very own staycation or if you’re planning on visiting Toronto soon.
