The Sutton Place Hotels and its parent company, Northland Properties, have announced their newest property coming to Toronto.
Situated in one of the city’s most popular neighbourhoods, The Sutton Place Hotel Toronto will be housed in the historic Westinghouse building at 355 King Street West.
Recognized as one of the first luxury hotels in Toronto, the prestigious brand was located on Bay Street from 1967 to 2012, providing exceptional accessibility to the Yorkville neighbourhood and the financial district. Prior to the construction of the TIFF Bell Lightbox in 2010, The Sutton Place held the distinction of being the unofficial headquarters and accommodation for participants of the Toronto International Film Festival. It was well-known to dignitaries and celebrities alike, who would regularly frequent its lobby and nearby establishments. Reconnecting with its roots, The Sutton Place Hotel Toronto is making a remarkable return to the city, merely steps away from the current TIFF Bell Lightbox building.
Now under the full ownership and operations of The Sutton Place Hotels, the distinguished Toronto hotel is poised to become a contemporary landmark at the intersection of King Street West and Blue Jays Way. Formerly known as the King Blue Hotel, the new Sutton Place Hotel Toronto with its classical façade detailing and terra cotta trim will house 118 premium guest rooms and suites, promising a polished, luxurious experience perfect for both business and leisure travellers.
“The rebranding of King Blue Hotel Toronto to The Sutton Place Hotel Toronto is an exciting addition to our Sutton Place portfolio and strengthens our growth in Ontario. Toronto offers a vibrant downtown experience rich in culture and history. We are incredibly proud to welcome our hotel guests and local restaurant and bar visitors to enjoy a particularly special hospitality experience that encompasses the beautifully designed historical touchpoints of this iconic building,” says Tom Gaglardi, CEO of Northland Properties.
In addition to guests enjoying the refined modern-day luxury of The Sutton Place Hotel Toronto, an exclusive culinary haven awaits them at Abrielle. Drawing inspiration from the Mediterranean Coast, this on-site dining location offers a symphony of vibrant flavours and vegetable-forward dishes, meticulously paired with handcrafted cocktails and a curated selection of wines, from female-owned wineries. Abrielle is the perfect mix of vibrancy and timeless charm, treating guests to an exceptional hospitality experience in a relaxing atmosphere.
