A destination in its own right, The Ritz-Carlton, Toronto’s wellness retreat delivers everything from a champagne nail bar and bespoke high-tech Clarins facials, to a globally inspired massage menu and personal training sessions. 

The hotel’s 63 suites are among the biggest in the city with The Ritz-Carlton Suite taking the crown as the hotel’s largest. A city sanctuary delivering 2,415 sq ft of living space, it has an apartment feel and features full-length windows spanning its width.

Interior inspiration comes from the city’s silver screen history with glamorous lighting, black and white wall art and platinum-hued deco furnishings throughout including a pair of lavish velvet couches in the living room.
