Soho Metropolitan Hotel
318 Wellington St. West
Toronto, Ontario, Canada
Style: Modern Design
Atmosphere: Lively
87 Rooms
Toronto’s Soho Metropolitan is an example of what’s probably the most significant secondary effect of the boutique-hotel revolution: now, thanks to the eccentric small operators with their avant-garde establishments, the luxury market is moving in a design-forward direction. This is the sort of hotel that, a decade or to ago, might have been content to sacrifice style for comfort — but the Soho Metropolitan, as it exists today, makes no such concession.
Witness the crisp lines, the neutral tones, the stylish modernist furniture. There’s a riotously colorful glass sculpture by Dale Chihuly presiding over the entryway, and the restaurant, Senses, is a bit of a city-center meeting point. The pleasures, naturally, are more than just visual — the bathrooms, for example, feature soaking tubs, elaborately functional shower stalls, and Molton Brown bath products.
The Soho Metropolitan’s city-center location is essentially Toronto’s version of midtown Manhattan, convenient for business travelers, shoppers and theatre-goers alike. As such it needs to appeal not just to boutique diehards but to more casual travelers as well, and its particular brand of stylishness is an understated, accessible one. It’s not the sort of place where your sense of hospitality will be aggressively challenged — unless being chauffeured in the hotel’s own Lexus LS460 is your idea of a challenge.
