There are moments when even I—always dressed, always poised—need to completely let go. When that time comes, I retreat to the Valmont Spa at The Hazelton Hotel, tucked quietly within Toronto’s most luxurious address in Yorkville.

From the moment I slip into the plush robe and sip a citrus-infused tea, the transformation begins. The atmosphere here is hushed, refined, and intensely private—a true wellness sanctuary in the heart of the city. I often book the couples’ suite, whether for shared indulgence or to simply enjoy the spacious calm all to myself.

The therapists here don’t just perform treatments—they intuitively understand the body. My personal favorite? The signature full-body massage followed by a collagen-rich facial using Swiss Valmont skincare. I emerge glowing, grounded, and utterly renewed.

Why I always return:

• Private and discreet setting—ideal for those who need serenity without distraction.

• Tailored treatments for jetlag, stress, or just because the skin craves luxury.

• Couples’ packages that make a romantic escape even more intimate.

• And of course, five-star service that anticipates your every need—often before you speak it.

Whether you’re preparing for a big night out or winding down after one, the spa at The Hazelton is more than a luxury—it’s part of the ritual.
