To earn the distinction, the hotel had to secure placement on the Hot List, the Gold List, and the Readers' Choice Awards. This achievement signals a consistent standard of excellence, balancing critical acclaim with sustained performance among travelers. General Manager Lukas Boeckmann attributed the win to the staff's dedication, noting that the award validates the hotel’s position as a premier destination in North America.

Located in the city's downtown core, the property remains a focal point of Toronto’s high-end travel scene. Beyond its guest accommodations, the hotel maintains its reputation through its culinary offerings at TOCA, EPOCH Bar & Kitchen Terrace, and LANO, alongside its wellness facilities at Spa myBlend. By maintaining this level of service, the hotel continues to anchor the local hospitality landscape while attracting international visitors to its downtown site.
