Luxury hotels, hotel suites and fine dining restaurants in Canada

Travel to Canada 

 Combining sophisticated, cosmopolitan cities, with vast and pristine natural wilderness, Canada is a country made for curious explorers. There’s no mistaking Canada is vast – the second biggest country on earth. But our luxury hotels in Canada are ideally placed for visitors to appreciate the cultural highlights of its urban centers (Toronto, Ottawa and Montreal in the east, Vancouver in the west), and to use them as stepping stones to the country’s incredible scenery not far beyond. Get those hiking boots packed! 

 Canada gives new meaning to the very idea of the Great Outdoors. It is unimaginably large, most of it uninhabited. We invite you to discover this epic countryside, mountain ranges, pine-forested panoramas, lake-covered landscapes, and the world’s longest coastline along the Atlantic, Pacific and Arctic Oceans. Its icy north is a truly unspoiled natural wonder.  

 Typically visitors can only hope to dip a toe into all this paradise, but that won’t stop guests of our luxury hotels in Canada enjoying a taste of island life, mountain pursuits, forest ecology and native wildlife. Wherever you choose, you will be drinking in a remarkable culture that blends contemporary north American life with colonial heritage and indigenous roots. 

Luxury hotels in Canada’s wilderness 

 Relais & Châteaux in Canada boasts delightful properties in countryside, mountain, woodland, parkland and town-center locations – for a full spectrum of the Canadian experience. Offering opulent surroundings, gourmet food and breathtaking views, our hotels in Canada range from genteel manor houses and refined country houses to woodland lodges, seaside resorts, rustic charm and townhouse hotels. Our standalone restaurants in Toronto and Montreal reflect more contemporary surrounds of modern city life.  

 As you might expect, some of our luxury hotels in Canada are in remote settings, including one that’s accessible only by sea or air and another in a protected natural setting designated as a World Heritage Site. Wildlife is never far away. But even when you’re feeling far from your regular existence, you can expect the finer things in life, from fantastic food to well-being treatments, art, design and antiques, in comfortable yet understated luxurious accommodation. As such, it’s up to you whether to enjoy its urban riches, engage with the natural beauty on your doorstep – or do a bit of both. 

Fine dining restaurants in Canada’s culinary centers 

 Wherever you choose to take your vacation in Canada, the Relais & Châteaux perspective on refined eating and drinking pervades. Our gastronomic restaurants in Canada include award-winning cuisine from recognized chefs, reworking and modernizing Canadian cuisine, made with fresh produce from local markets and, often, grown in each estate’s own gardens, or even foraged to reflect and respect local terroir.  

 In our fine-dining restaurants in Canada you can look out for dishes made with local ingredients – think salmon, lobster and crab, bison, maple syrup, birch vinegar and First Nation spices, perhaps paired with home-grown wines or bottlings from some of Canada’s largest wine cellars. You’ll find French culinary influences are also evident in the east of Canada, including classic gastronomy and avant-garde interpretations – oh, and a love of cheese. 

Relais & Châteaux in Canada 

 Whether you choose to explore the French-Canadian east or the charms of big city Toronto, or head west to explore the coastal delights of Rocky Mountain luxury hotels in Canada, you will find a shared outlook on life from our independently owned hotels and restaurants. While two of our properties are alike – they each proudly reflect the history, heritage and culture of their locality – they are united by a profound sense of hospitality, a passion for looking after guests and a celebration of local food, drink and culture. It’s an ethos we call l’art de vivre (the fine art of living) and with each guest stay, we hope to win new hearts and minds that appreciate what is important to us. 

Eco Hotels in Canada – passionate about preserving its unspoiled wonders 

 All of our hotels in Canada are passionate about preserving the beauty and uniqueness of their surroundings and the communities they are part of. They also work hard to protect and preserve their way of life, the epic landscapes that surround them, the food and drink traditions that have evolved and the local people that perpetuate them. That’s why they all have close relationships with local suppliers and collaborate with local artisans to inject additional unique details during your stay. Our boutique hotels are based around the concept of responsible travel to Canada. The human-scale of our boutique hotels in Canada mean they are not only passionate advocates of sustainable tourism but can make a practical difference.  

 At the heart of each property you will find passionate individuals who love hosting guests and want you to have the most memorable experience possible. As independent operators, and many at the helm of family-owned businesses that have been evolving for generations, our property owners pride themselves on a genuine, personal touch – in the hope that they can one day welcome you back again.
