Easton’s Group of Hotels completes structural framework for Canopy by Hilton Hotel
The Canopy by Hilton Hotel is anticipated to open steps away from the heart of Toronto’s Yorkville neighbourhood in November 2022.
Easton’s Group of Hotels has announced the “topping off” of its upcoming Canopy by Hilton Toronto Yorkville Hotel, marking the completion of its structural framework. The group held a ceremony at the construction site at the end of July in Toronto; the event was attended by members of Easton’s Group of Hotels, Gupta Group Developments, and SkyGrid Construction Inc.
The 184-room hotel marks the Canadian debut of Canopy by Hilton, Hilton’s luxurious lifestyle hotel brand. This is slated to open in November 2022, steps away from the heart of Yorkville, one of Toronto’s most desirable neighbourhoods and shopping destinations.
“Today is a significant milestone for the construction of this property and a testament to the skill and diligence of all parties involved,” says Reetu Gupta, chairwoman and ambassadress of The Gupta Group and Easton’s Group of Hotels. “We’re excited to bring Canada’s very first Canopy by Hilton Hotel to Toronto. The hotel with its premium location will bring a unique blend of luxury, convenience, and urban living, offering a new way for guests near and far to experience the city.”
Upon completion, Canopy by Hilton Toronto Yorkville, owned and managed by Easton's Group of Hotels, will feature a modern café with retail offerings from local businesses on the main floor, a highly-anticipated restaurant with impressive views of Bloor St. and the Rosedale Valley, a sleek indoor heated pool, yoga and fitness rooms featuring state-of-the-art equipment, and comfortable meeting spaces. The hotel rooms can be found from the second to ninth floors, while the remainder of the building rising 55 floors comprised of Gupta Group Developments’ Rosedale on Bloor residential units.
Studio Munge led the hotel’s unique design with layered interiors defined by curved edges and organic motifs. This will be complemented by an impressive local art collection, which illustrates the intricate connection between nature, people, and urbanism. As part of the experience, guest rooms will be called “Just-Right Rooms” because they provide intuitive comfort with a place for everything.
