Creating the essential Toronto experience since 1929. Managed by

Fairmont Royal York, formerly known as the Royal York Hotel, is a large and historic hotel in downtown Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Opened on June 11, 1929, the Royal York was designed by Ross and Macdonald (with Sproatt and Rolph) and built by the Canadian Pacific Railway across the street from Union Station. With 28 floors, the château-style building was the tallest building in Toronto at that time, and the tallest building in the British Empire until the construction of Toronto’s Canadian Bank of Commerce tower on King Street one year later. The hotel has been the residence of choice for Queen Elizabeth II and other members of The Royal Family when in Toronto. Today, the hotel hosts royalty of another kind as an official hotel for the annual Toronto International Film Festival.

A weekend at Fairmont Royal York is not measured in hours, but in the moments that stay with you long after you leave.

We had a chance to catch up with Alexis Bragagnolo, Director of Fairmont Gold and learn how she would make the most of 48 hours in Toronto.

The countdown to the most wonderful time of the year officially begins. ✨

Every year, the holidays bring us back to what matters most. The traditions we look forward to, the people we make time for, and the moments we wish could last a little longer. This festive season, Fairmont Royal York invites you to make room for all of it.

Returning to our roots, this season is steeped in rich reds, gleaming golds and the old-world grandeur of nearly a century of holiday tradition. Holiday magic lives here, in the details, the traditions and the moments that make this time of year so special.

From the sweetest new traditions at Gingerbread & Co. to festive afternoon teas, seasonal menus at REIGN, MONOGRAM and CLOCKWORK, and cozy evenings by the fire, the hotel comes to life with festive experiences made for celebrating.

This season, be Wrapped in the Moment. Savour the familiar, celebrate the unexpected and make room for the memories that stay with you long after the festivities fade.

Your holiday story starts at Fairmont Royal York.

Fairmont Royal York is proud to have welcomed TIFF and the extraordinary talent who brought this year’s festival to life.

Until next year, Toronto. ✨
