Holiday pop-ups come and go (literally!), but if you’re searching for a festive experience in the city that goes beyond the ordinary, look no further than Park Hyatt Toronto’s Holiday Bothy at the Park.
Nestled in the heart of Yorkville, this limited-time experience is open to the public beginning Nov. 24, and is already redefining winter gatherings with its welcoming atmosphere, thoughtful culinary offerings, premium cocktails and touch of magic.
This winter, Holiday Bothy at the Park is the ultimate haven away from the cold city hustle, and the perfect setting for a cozy, cocktail-infused get-together with friends. As you pass through an entrance adorned with snow-covered evergreen trees, the setting transitions into a woodsy urban retreat with inviting seating and textures, accented by warm candlelight.
Beyond the charming aesthetics lies a culinary journey created by executive sous-chef Jonathan Williams. The carefully curated menu promises a blend of rustic charm, contemporary sophistication and seasonal warmth. Featuring an array of small bites, each pays tribute to Canada’s culinary landscape, with a modern twist.
Think venison tartare with juniper, lingonberry and potato chips; lobster poutine for two made with Ontario cheese curds, gravy and loads of seafood; and fried truffle grilled cheese with mornay sauce and Swiss cheese, and every dish is a celebration of winter’s rich tapestry.
Seasonal treats like irresistible gingerbread-and-eggnog sandwich cookies and peppermint-chocolate bark add a sweet finishing note to the festive experience.
As for drinks, discover a divine cocktail selection, including a limited-edition signature drink exclusively crafted in partnership with Glenfiddich that’s an extraordinary feast for both the eyes and the taste buds. Visit the full-service bar for even more variety, or indulge in the ultimate festive beverage at the hot chocolate station.
The experience is inspired by a European bothy—an open-door cottage found in remote mountainous areas across Scotland, northern England, Ulster and Wales. Always unlocked, these simple huts provide respite for travellers, fostering a sense of connection and warmth—a feeling central to the Holiday Bothy at the Park.
Park Hyatt Toronto’s Holiday Bothy is an invitation to indulge in the season’s cozy charm and festive allure. Whether you’re planning a casual evening with friends or seeking a memorable setting for date night, it’s a unique celebration unlike any other.
Holiday Bothy at the Park is open to the public Thursdays to Sundays from Nov. 24 until Jan. 1.
