@Urbia-Suburbia I work for Hyatt; the project is still listed as an upcoming property in our pipeline, so it's definitely still a go... even if the opening date has slipped to early 2027. khabah

As per this press release issued by Hyatt yesterday, there is mention of a Hyatt Centric Jarvis Street Toronto. As Hyatt's only development project in this location, it appears that the brand was upgraded to a Centric which would make it Canada's second after Montréal. khabah

Is... is this going up quicker? Is it actually going... up? I'm just about in disbelief. khabah

It feels BEYOND weird to be contributing to this forum using content I captured myself… but here I am, back in my old stomping grounds and in total disbelief. Yesterday, taken around 5:30 PM. khabah

Not sure if these have been posted before, but here are renderings of the Studio Munge-designed lobby/bar and standard room at the Canopy by Hilton Toronto Yorkville from a Canopy by Hilton brand presentation deck I managed to get a hold of. Also, this article released by Hilton in December...

Official photos of the final rooms are now out, so we can see the end result instead of renderings. Looks very sharp. Still not the building I wanted to see W Toronto in, but this is a great renovation... and much better, in my eyes, than the dreadfully underwhelming Park Hyatt. khabah...

So it's more of the hotel youse are wanting? Have at the latest renderings, courtesy of The Design Agency: porte cochère, lobby lounge, room and pool. We've seen the restaurant and bar so far, and the lobby corroborates how glorious the public spaces will be. Gorgeous room as well - makes the...

I apologize if these have been posted upthread, but it appears DesignAgency is doing the Andaz's interiors... and they look swish. They've only shared the following three photos of the restaurant and bar so far, but so far so good. Classy. One to look forward to in 2023. khabah

All these rock puns bring shears of joy to mine eyes. You guys are the best. khabah

Ladies and gentlemen, we finally have an inside view on the accommodations at the W, and worry not - crappy views need not apply in some rooms, because the beds are backed against the windows! Hope y'all like open/wall-less bathrooms... Images below are of the base king and base queen rooms...
