Updated: Dec 16, 2019

So much is right there in the building that you could spend days without needing to go outside. And if you don't fancy taking care of it yourself, a wealth of first-rate service providers are at your door. Convenience is a notable feature at the Shangri-La Condos.


Shangri-La Condos - 180 University Ave., Toronto, ON

As the Name Suggests


As it's name suggests, Shangri-La is a tranquil refuge from the stresses and strains of city living. An earthy paradise? Well, that may be an exaggeration, but this striking 66-storey glass tower shared with the 5-star Shangri-La Hotel at the crossroads of the city's business and entertainment districts, arguably offers the pinnacle of Toronto condo living.


Full Service Luxury Living


Built in 2012, the Shangri-La's soaring tower, glass atrium and signature stainless-steel sculpture is a focal point on University Avenue. A blend of old and new, the sleek, modern construction seamlessly incorporates Bishop's Block, a Georgian rowhouse dating back to the 1830s. The buildings have been painstakingly restored by Westbank Projects as part of the development and now house Soho House Toronto, a private club, restaurant and event space for the film, media and creative industries. Inside, attention has been paid to every glamorous detail of the 392 condominium suites including over-height ceilings, exclusive Italian kitchens, top-of-the-line appliances, closet organizers and automated blinds as standard.


The hotel rooms of the Shangri-La Hotel occupy the first 17 floors. Residents access their suites via a high-speed elevator from a private lobby, yet access to all the hotel's indulgent amenities is a part of ownership in the building. This is full service luxury living at it's finest. Realtors and residents alike rate Shangri-La as not just their favourite Queen West condo but among the finest luxury condos in the entire city.
