Welcoming guests in Toronto’s entertainment district since 2003, Le Germain Hotel Toronto has emerged from an extensive makeover – providing guests with an even more stylish and comfortable experience than ever before.
A total of 118 rooms have been revitalized with tasteful new furnishings, lighting conveniences and more, all thoughtfully selected to create an environment which is as inviting as it is contemporary. The hotel’s hallways were also updated to complement the fashionable new look and feel of the rooms.
The nine-month redesign phase was unique in that it directly involved the hotel’s guests.
“We value the comfort of our guests above all else, so the best way to ensure that the new room design addressed their needs and preferences was to make them part of the transformation process,” says Christiane Germain, co-president of Group Germain Hotels. “We invited guests to experience and give feedback on a model room in the hotel over the course of three months before the start of the renovations. Their valuable input enabled us to refine the room design in terms of ergonomics, lighting, comfort and overall aesthetics. We are even more pleased to unveil the new rooms knowing that they were designed to deliver exactly what our guests value and appreciate most.”
No detail was overlooked in the transformation, which was led by LEMAYMICHAUD Architecture and Design. Dark and light tones and a carefully selected combination of textured finishes provide dramatic yet inviting contrasts, all enhanced by an intelligent concealed LED lighting system that creates a warm, diffused effect. Deluxe accents like the felt-inspired material made of 95% recycled matter, called Svelte, covering the wall behind the headboards and Corian countertops add elegant finishing touches.
“From the irresistible bed to the oversized spa-style bathroom and the work station, Le Germain Hotel Toronto’s guest rooms are now welcoming havens of comfort and modern design,” said Nicolas Lazarou, general manager of Le Germain Hotel Toronto.
