Hotel X Toronto joins Destination by Hyatt, officially introducing the lifestyle brand to Canada for the first time. This marks a major milestone for Hyatt Hotels Corporation and brings new energy to one of Toronto’s most iconic urban resorts.
Located along the scenic shores of Lake Ontario, Hotel X Toronto is known for offering a tranquil yet vibrant experience just minutes from the heart of downtown. With 404 rooms, exceptional amenities, and a deep commitment to wellness, art, and sustainability, the hotel fits seamlessly into the Destination by Hyatt brand’s portfolio, which celebrates the unique character of each location it inhabits.
This development also signals the continued growth of Hyatt’s presence in Canada. Over the past decade, Hyatt has quintupled its brand footprint in the country. Hotel X Toronto now becomes part of Hyatt’s Classics portfolio, strengthening the brand’s appeal to travelers seeking immersive, culturally rich hospitality experiences in both urban and resort settings.
The hotel’s offerings are far from ordinary. Guests can enjoy a year-round heated rooftop pool with panoramic views of the city skyline and waterfront. The first Guerlain Spa in Canada is located on-site, offering a range of luxury treatments in a serene environment. For fitness enthusiasts, the hotel is home to 10XTO, a massive 90,000-square-foot athletic facility featuring tennis courts, squash courts, and fitness studios.
Art and culture are also front and center at Hotel X Toronto. A curated gallery by acclaimed photographer Neil Dankoff adds a creative dimension to the guest experience, while the hotel’s private cinema and 250-seat screening room offer upscale entertainment options without leaving the property.
Dining is another standout aspect. Guests have access to a variety of carefully selected dining venues, reflecting the diversity and vibrancy of Toronto’s food scene. Whether staying for business or pleasure, the hotel’s landscaped gardens and flexible event spaces create an ideal environment for everything from intimate gatherings to large-scale celebrations.
Fariyal Hasham, Managing Director at Hotel X Toronto, describes the move as an alignment of visions. “Hotel X Toronto was designed to be more than a hotel—it is an experience that blends wellness, culture, and recreation. Joining Destination by Hyatt allows us to stay true to our unique vision while tapping into Hyatt’s global reach, connecting travelers from around the world to our sophisticated urban resort.”
The Destination by Hyatt brand is known for offering independent properties that reflect the local culture, architecture, and energy of their surroundings. Hotel X Toronto fits this mission perfectly, with its blend of personalized service, design-driven spaces, and deep ties to its waterfront location.
Scott Richer, Vice President of Development and Owner Relations for Canada at Hyatt, emphasized the broader impact: “Hotel X Toronto embodies the spirit of the Destination by Hyatt brand by offering exceptional resort-style experiences which capture the essence of Toronto. We’re looking forward to continuing to grow Hyatt’s brand presence in Canada and expand our Classics portfolio in exciting new locations that our guests and 54 million World of Hyatt members expect.”
For Hyatt, this new partnership is more than just an expansion—it’s a statement about the evolving nature of hospitality in Canada. The collaboration ensures that guests staying at Hotel X Toronto will enjoy access to World of Hyatt benefits, while the property continues to operate with the creative freedom and individuality that made it a standout in the first place.
With its world-class amenities, artistic flair, and stunning location, Hotel X Toronto now begins a new chapter under the Destination by Hyatt banner. For travelers seeking a rich, locally inspired, and wellness-focused experience in one of North America’s most dynamic cities, this hotel is now officially a destination in every sense of the word.
