W Toronto opens outdoor spaces and seasonal terrace rooms

In addition, the start of summer lets guests book a Marvelous Terrace Room with enclosed terraces facing The Yard.

“W Toronto has already cemented itself as a player on the Yorkville social scene,” says Catherine Velie, general manager, W Toronto. “Now, in time for summer, our hotel’s outdoor spaces offer even more dynamic options for travellers as well as Toronto locals looking for the perfect way to spend a summer day - and night. We offer a full day’s journey - which can start with drinks in The Yard, dinner at Skylight Terrace, late night cocktails in The Living Room or Yard and then a Marvelous Terrace stay that puts you in the centre of it all.”

The Yard

Steps away from the Living Room (W’s signature lobby bar/lounge), and surrounded by flowers and manicured greenery–The iconic, Missoni décor pops in juxtaposition against the building’s signature Brutalist design including a three-story atrium of guest room windows which creates a voyeuristic tension between public and private. Featuring a plethora of seating options, guests can relax on bright teal chaise lounges, a luxurious sectional flanked by signature Missoni chevron poofs, low-seated loungers, or group dining tables under draped canopies.

Highlights of the Yard experience currently include:

● Live DJs on Fridays & Saturdays

● A New summer menu of Tapas and Entrees inspired by the diverse cuisines of Toronto’s Neighbourhoods

● W Toronto’s Signature Flower Power Cocktail - which infuses grapefruit gin, lavender syrup, lemon, and Prosecco with edible flowers, smoked and served in a glass orb

● Pride Pop Cocktails: Featuring multi-flavoured rainbow pops dipped in your choice of a Mojito, Rosé or Prosecco with proceeds going to CANFAR (limited time, while supplies last)

Skylight Terrace

Perched high in the Yorkville sky overlooking the lights of Bloor Street is Skylight Terrace, a posh outdoor gathering space for cocktails, upscale cuisine and people watching that is part of the hotel’s enchanting - and buzzing - Skylight Rooftop Bar and Restaurant. Accessible through a wall of glass doors that open from the main dining room, the scenic Terrace is surrounded by plush greenery and boasts views of the local city skyline. The perfect place to grab a signature cocktail, Skylight Terrace features relaxed, group and high-top seating as well as two garden bird cages, with lounge seating for up to eight.

Marvelous Terrace Rooms

Summer also marks the time to take in the rays in W Toronto’s Marvelous Terrace Rooms, which feature enclosed, outdoor terraces facing The Yard. Guests can enjoy privacy, peek, or partake in the party whenever they wish with a simple step onto their terrace as they enjoy the sounds of a live DJ on Fridays and Saturdays. Marvelous rooms are perfect for guests looking to socialize as well as locals looking for a luxurious summer staycation, featuring lounger patio seating on each terrace. Cool off as soon as you arrive with a complimentary assortment of non-alcoholic beverages stocked in the terrace’s patio cooler. Guests can also choose to dine al fresco with in-room dining menus offering a choice of W’s signature cocktails and bites. Book your Marvelous Terrace Room before the summer season sets later this year.
