Kimpton Saint George Hotel Toronto

Stay in Sophistication & Charm

Nestled in the heart of Toronto’s vibrant Annex neighbourhood, the Kimpton Saint George stands as a testament to boutique luxury and local charm. Open since the summer of 2018, the hotel marks Kimpton’s first location in Toronto.

Situated in Yorkville at 280 Bloor Street West, the Kimpton Saint George effortlessly blends the luxurious ambiance of the area with the bohemian flair of the lively Annex, one of Toronto’s oldest neighbourhoods. The result is a unique and inviting atmosphere for guests.

Developed by InnVest Hotels and designed by Toronto-based interior design firm Mason Studio in collaboration with Kimpton’s design team, the Kimpton permeates warmth and community from the moment guests step through its doors.

Every aspect of the hotel’s design, from the architecture to the furnishings, is a nod to Toronto’s rich culture and heritage. Everything culminates together: history, locally designed modern furniture, warm tones and architectural details, guiding visitors through their journey of the space –much like your home. Many items, such as your morning coffee, will have been brought on board from an establishment nearby.

The 14-story hotel offers 188 guest rooms, including 20 suites and a Presidential Suite, each offering a blend of modern comfort and timeless elegance. Inspired by the Annex’s historic homes and eclectic community, guest rooms feature a curated selection of art, furniture, and décor that pays homage to the city’s vibrant personality. Warm earth tones, natural textures, and locally sourced materials create a welcoming and inviting environment, inviting guests to relax and unwind in style.

Other unique pleasantries present themselves during your stay, from the curated and custom Canadian-made furniture and millwork to at least half a dozen unique pieces of art in each room. “Marble Moon” by Ottawa artist and designer Laura Langford is one such piece.

Notice how the freestanding wooden armoires made of natural oak and caning mimic the hotel’s curved archways and give the space an added layer of lightness and delicacy. Notice something else when you open the armoire door? Yes. Squirrel! This “closet smile” is unique to every room in the Kimpton as a “figurative wink” to Greatbeard, a Toronto hometown art duo. The squirrel represents Trinity-Bellwoods Park’s famed albino squirrels.

Many Instagram-able moments will occur throughout, including the large infinity mirror in the elevator lobby. Snap a quick pic while you wait for a lift.

One of the highlights of the Kimpton Saint George is the Living Room, a cozy and inviting space designed for socializing and relaxation. With ample seating, a fireplace adorned with modern ceramic inlay, and soft cushions, the Living Room serves as the heart of the hotel, offering guests a comfortable and welcoming atmosphere to connect with others or simply unwind after a day of exploring the city.

This is where Social Hour takes place. Every day from 5 - 6 p.m. in the adjacent lobby, beverages are served, usually along with canapés and small bites. You may partake in the Living Room in a comfortable chair by the window, or closer to the inviting fireplace.

The Fortunate Fox, a restaurant and bar attached to the hotel, is great for brunch, lunch, dinner and drinks. Ultra-tempting menu nights include Taco Tuesday, Vinyl Vault Saturday, and Sunday Roast.

In addition to its stylish accommodations, the Kimpton Saint George also offers approximately 1,500 square feet of meeting and event space, and a fitness centre.

The Kimpton is so aptly situated for a memorable stay downtown, it’s close to the buzz of your nightlife neighbourhood of choice, yet far enough to elicit relaxation and warmth from within. Hotel staff are always ready to make recommendations to those wanting to build an agenda for their stay. Nearby cultural must-dos also include the Bata Shoe Museum, directly across the street, and the Royal Ontario Museum, just a short walk away.

Whether you’re visiting Toronto for business or pleasure, the Kimpton Saint George offers a truly unforgettable experience. With its impeccable design, warm hospitality, and prime location in one of Toronto’s most vibrant neighbourhoods, it’s no wonder that the Kimpton Saint George has quickly become a beloved landmark in the city’s hospitality scene.
