Nobu will be making its Canadian debut later this year, with a 36-room property scheduled for opening later this year.

Canadian first

Nobu Toronto is set to welcome guests in June 2025, following hot on the heels of the Toronto restaurant opening in August 2024.

Nobu Hotel Toronto is situated above the historic Pilkington Glass Factory with two dramatic residential towers housing 660 units with the hotel located atop the west tower.

The hotel will take up floors 41 to 45 of the mixed-use development. 

It’ll be the first luxury hotel in the city to be situated at the top of a mixed-use property, signalling the growing space for mixed developments in large metropolitan locations. 

Rooms and suites will offer views of Lake Ontario and the city skyline.

Top of the range amenities

The hotel will boast the Sakura Lounge, a guest-only eatery, as well as a state-of-the-art fitness centre featuring TechnoGym equipment, Peloton bikes and Frame Pilates reformer, as well as an in-room Zen Wellness program including Alo yoga equipment, on-demand fitness classes on TV, stretching rituals, nutrition guides and local spa and fitness recommendations.

Rooms will include a Japanese Deep Soaking Wood Tub, Japanese Toto, Bathorium and Byredo products, and Dyson appliances.

The 36-key property will be located downtown in Toronto’s famed Entertainment District, just a block away from the Toronto International Film Festival. 

It is also just a short walk from the city’s most distinguished landmarks including the CN Tower, Scotiabank Arena, Rogers Centre, Union Station and Toronto Harbourfront. 

“Nobu Hotel Toronto will be a monumental addition to the luxury hotel landscape in the city”, says General Manager of Nobu Hotel Toronto, Benoit Pretet. 

“Situated in a prime location in the heart of the entertainment district and just steps from cultural landmarks like TIFF, Nobu Hotel Toronto will quickly become the city’s urban oasis.”
