The company will now take on all ownership, operations and management responsibilities for the hotel.<\/p>\n<p>Constructed in 1903 at 37 King St. E., in the heart of the city\u2019s financial district, the hotel offers easy access to the TTC Subway and light rail, the Sony Centre and the CN Tower. Omni Hotels &amp; Resorts recently completed a $40 million renovation project that included the addition of a new fitness center and the upgrade of the hotel\u2019s guestrooms, bathrooms, and meeting spaces.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOmni is committed to making this incredible hotel the place to stay in Toronto, whether traveling for business or leisure,\u201d said Mike Deitemeyer, president of Omni Hotels &amp; Resorts. \u201cAs an extension of our city center portfolio, The King Edward Hotel is a marquee property that allows us to offer our award-winning personalized service to our guests who visit Toronto, Canada.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Omni King Edward was designed by Chicago architect Henry Ives Cobb and Canadian architect E.J. Lennox, and was the first of its kind in the city. During its heyday, the hotel hosted celebrities such as Mark Twain, Ernest Hemingway, Elvis Presley, and The Beatles.<\/p>\n<p><em>Image courtesy of Omni Hotels &amp; Resorts<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Omni Hotels &#038; Resorts has taken over one of Toronto\u2019s first luxury hotels.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":192,"featured_media":1004132529,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21743,21751,16],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1004132528","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-deals","category-hotel","category-international"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v28.0 (Yoast SEO v28.0) -
