Hotel X Toronto HOTEL X TORONTO "CNE STAY AND PLAY" PACKAGE MEANS PARENTS AND KIDS ALIKE CAN ENJOY TORONTO'S CANADIAN NATIONAL EXHIBITION Photo Credit: Greg Paupst Guests of Hotel X Toronto can ride the midway then relax in the pool – all on the same day August 7, 2018 (Toronto, Ontario): For the first time ever, guests to the Canadian National Exhibition (CNE) can stay directly on the fair grounds, at the newly opened Hotel X Toronto. No more sticky rides home with tired kids – this year families can walk straight from the Ferris wheel to a luxurious suite in the most family friendly hotel in the city. The package includes two general admission tickets to the CNE, a C$30.00 resort credit towards the Falcon SkyBar or Maxx’s Kitchen, ice cream cones for two at Nespresso Café, family style movies every night in a luxurious private screening room, and complimentary parking for one vehicle. Rates start as low as C$425 for a 2-night minimum stay. To book this package go to www.hotelxtoronto.com and use code: CNE2018, or call 647 943 9300 and ask for the CNE Package. According to Henry Kallan, owner and developer of Hotel X Toronto, and president of the Library Hotel Collection, kids are king during the CNE – but now that Hotel X Toronto is open there will be lots for parents to enjoy as well. “This is our first year of operation during the CNE and we cannot wait to welcome families and be part of the excitement when that midway lights up and the music starts. We are located right in the heart of one of the most beloved events in the Toronto calendar, a fair that has been in continuous operation since 1879.” Hotel X Toronto is located in Exhibition Place on 9 acres of landscaped gardens overlooking the lakeshore. The hotel boasts a wide variety of resort style amenities including a stunning rooftop pool and the most impressive hotel fitness centre in Canada, Ten X Toronto. At Ten X Toronto the whole family can play indoor tennis, squash or ping pong, work out on Technogym equipment, or prepare for a day at the fair with sunrise yoga in one of the hot or cold yoga studios. Golf enthusiasts can practice their swing at a state-of-the-art golf simulator. Some parents choose to drop off their children for up to 2 hours at the supervised Kids Activity Centre while they enjoy the world-class facilities. In the evening, after riding the roller coaster, seeing international exhibits and enjoying the arcades all day, kids can slip into speciality bathrobes and order room service from the extensive kid-friendly menu, while parents might enjoy in-room massages. According to Kallan, the hotel was built from the beginning with families in mind. “Hotel X Toronto offers multiple adjoining suites with up to three bedrooms, perfect for multi-generational families. We also have over 100 rooms with two queen sized beds, for two adults and two children. We have 39 additional suites with sofa beds, and 71 signature king rooms with sofa beds. Guests who want to watch the lights of the CNE from two angles might enjoy one of 36 king corner suites. Oh, and families with small dogs can also bring the family pet!” Guests coming from out of town for a few days will discover there is a lot to do in walking distance from the Exhibition grounds, just steps from the front door of Hotel X Toronto. Families can safely wander over the bridge to explore Ontario Place, skate on an all-season ice rink, bike or walk through recreational trails at Trillium Park, or rent a paddle boat on Lake Ontario. As the sun sets, they can enjoy a family friendly screening at Ontario’s largest IMAX Theatre, the famous domed Cinesphere. “We are so excited to be part of the wonderful tradition of the Canadian National Exhibition” adds Kallan, “and look forward to showing Toronto why we are known as the world’s kindest hoteliers.” About Library Hotel Collection The Library Hotel Collection prides itself on the reputation of being the “World’s Kindest Hoteliers” which is why it was recognized in ReviewPro’s 2016 and 2015 Top Luxury Hotel & Brand Report as having the highest guest satisfaction rating of any luxury hotel brand in the world. TripAdvisor also consistently honours the brand for some of the highest guest satisfaction ratings out of the site’s 1.1 million accommodations – including naming the musically-inspired Aria Hotel Budapest as “#1 Hotel in the World” in the 2017 Travelers’ Choice Awards. Each of the hotels in the Library Hotel Collection is reflective of the creative vision of Henry Kallan, named 2016 “Hotelier of the Year” by the Boutique Hotel and Lodging Association. Library Hotel is a book lover’s paradise with 6,000 books organized throughout the hotel, based on the Dewey Decimal System. Hotel Elysée, home of the renowned Monkey Bar, is inspired by the elegance of a French country estate. Inspired by the romance of the Hollywood classic, Casablanca Hotel is an unexpected oasis in the centre of the Broadway Theater District, steps from Times Square, and Hotel Giraffe is a chic, softly contemporary property in the NoMad/Flatiron District – both were named “Top Hotels in the US” by TripAdvisor in 2016 and 2017. The latest additions to the Library Hotel Collection are the Aria Hotel Budapest and Aria Hotel Prague. Hotel X Toronto by Library Hotel Collection recently opened and is Toronto’s first downtown urban resort, located on the shores of Lake Ontario on the Exhibition Place grounds.

    Acknowledgments The site of Exhibition Place has had a long tradition as a gathering place. Given its location on the water, these lands would have attracted Indigenous populations before recorded history. We acknowledge that the land occupied by Exhibition Place is the traditional territory of many nations including the Mississaugas of the Credit, the Anishnabeg, the Chippewa, the Haudenosaunee and the Wendat peoples and is now home to many diverse First Nations, Inuit and Metis peoples.

    What’s Out There? Toronto - 1 - What’s Out There - Toronto The Guide The Purpose “Cultural Landscapes provide a sense of place and identity; they map our relationship with the land over time; and they are part of our national heritage and each of our lives” (TCLF). These landscapes are important to a city because they reveal the influence that humans have had on the natural environment in addition to how they continue to interact with these land- scapes. It is significant to learn about and understand the cultural landscapes of a city because they are part of the city’s history. The purpose of this What’s Out There Guide-Toronto is to identify and raise public awareness of significant landscapes within the City of Toron- to. This guide sets out the details of a variety of cultural landscapes that are located within the City and offers readers with key information pertaining to landscape types, styles, designers, and the history of landscape, including how it has changed overtime. It will also provide basic information about the different landscape, the location of the sites within the City, colourful pic- tures and maps so that readers can gain a solid understanding of the area. In addition to educating readers about the cultural landscapes that have helped shape the City of Toronto, this guide will encourage residents and visitors of the City to travel to and experience these unique locations. The What’s Out There guide for Toronto also serves as a reminder of the im- portance of the protection, enhancement and conservation of these cultural landscapes so that we can preserve the City’s rich history and diversity and enjoy these landscapes for decades to come.
