Delta Toronto Hotel is a hotel at 75 Lower Simcoe Street in Toronto, Ontario, Canada that opened November 27, 2014. It is Delta Hotels Toronto flagship hotel and is located in downtown Toronto.
History
The new hotel's beginning began with the Delta Chelsea's disaffiliation in 2012. On December 19, 2012, Delta Chelsea owner, Great Eagle Holdings Ltd., announced it would end its management agreement with Delta Hotels on July 1, 2013, and place the property under control of its own subsidiary, Langham Hospitality Group. It was reported that Great Eagle would not commit to renovations Delta sought to upgrade the facility. Shortly after the disaffiliation of the Delta Chelsea, Delta began plans for a new hotel in the area known as the South Core[1] and connected to the PATH network.[2]
The new 524 feet (160 m) tower on Lower Simcoe Street was designed by Page and Steele/IBI Group Architects.[3] Unlike the former location the new location fulfilled the chain's desire to becoming an upscale premium hotel.[2] The new Delta Toronto's 567 rooms are used for hotel guests only with no condo units but rather extended stay units for long term guests.[4]
