Last Monday, my friend M celebrated her 24th birthday at the Windsor Arms Hotel for High-Tea. We attended the Traditional Afternoon Tea and it was a great way to celebrate her birthday, as well as to catch-up and have long, flowing conversations. I find that at this day & age, it's very rare to get a group of friends together & actually have a conversation. It's become the norm to hang out with human beings but stay attached on your phone (I'm guilty of this too!).
The Windsor Arms is a classic, charming boutique hotel showcasing deluxe details that are an integral part of the old world ambience and modern amenities.
Driving in downtown Toronto can be a challenge. The traffic patterns are horrible. But, the Yorkville/Cumberland/Bloor district of Toronto is as trendy and upscale as any trendy area of Los Angeles or New York City. With top named stores such as Louis Vuitton, Holt Renfrew, Cartier, and Tiffany, ‘the’ district is a shopper’s dream! Today I was treated to High Tea at the Windsor Arms Hotel in this beautiful area of downtown Toronto.
I’m a sucker for older, stunning architecture. So as a student at the University of Toronto I would frequent Theatrebooks on St. Thomas St. and gaze longingly at Yorkville’s Windsor Arms Hotel.
