Shangri-La Hotels and Resorts has signed an agreement with Vancouver’s Westbank and Peterson Group to manage the five-star Shangri-La Hotel, Toronto opening in 2011. The hotel will be Shangri-La’s second property in Canada following the debut of the Shangri-La Hotel, Vancouver in September 2008 by the same development team.
“We are delighted to announce our second project in Canada with Westbank and Peterson,” said Giovanni Angelini, Shangri-La’s chief executive officer and managing director. “Our Canadian properties will offer travellers Shangri-La’s renowned Asian-style hospitality complemented by luxurious guestrooms, fine dining and state-of-the-art facilities.”
Ian Gillespie, president of Westbank, added, “The Shangri-La hotels in Vancouver and Toronto both have ideal locations and each property will undoubtedly become one of their respective city’s leading deluxe hotels under Shangri-La’s award-winning management.”
