TORONTO — The Chelsea Hotel, Toronto has completed a $25-million refurbishment. The investment — the most extensive since 2013 — included 600 guestrooms in the Executive Tower, hotel corridors throughout the hotel and the modernization and refurbishment of the Executive Tower elevators.
Additionally, there was a revamp of Market Garden Restaurant, including new carpet and furniture, while its full-service restaurant, Elm Street Bar & Lounge, has undergone an expansion to double seating capacity while also updating its furniture and lighting.
The re-design of the hotel’s executive guestrooms includes new carpet, wall covering, drapes, lighting, mattresses, televisions, artwork, case-good surfaces covered with a stone cap and bathroom lighting and tub glazing.
The Executive Tower is characterized by soothing colours, natural light and wood/marble furnishings. Starting at 325 sq. ft., guests can select from a king or two double beds.
