The Ace Hotel Toronto is the newest location and host of the city's new rooftop bar lounge named Evangeline. It is designed by the local studio Shim-Sutcliffe Architects and the space is filled with a comfortable earthy tonal palette with exposed concrete starting from the lobby.
The bar seats 80 and overlooks Toronto at the height of the 14th floor of the new building. The interior details are done by the brand's in-house design team, Atelier Ace. The studio releases a statement about the new space, stating that "With energy swinging from sunset cooldowns to late night revelry, Evangeline celebrates creativity through a keen eye for curation — drinks, bites, sounds and sights [...] Its name is an ode to the first feature film out of Canada and its atmosphere influenced by the creative spark of the silver screen."
