The St. Regis Toronto [Master Thread]
Toronto’s Trump Hotel is reportedly nearing a deal to be rebranded as Marriott’s St. Regis
From Canada Financial Post:
The Trump International Hotel & Tower in Toronto may soon have a new name on the door, with Marriott International Inc.’s St. Regis brand seen as the front runner to manage the property, according to people familiar with the matter.
Marriott is the lead candidate to take over the brand and management contracts from the Trump Organization for the 65-story tower in Canada’s largest city, people close to the transaction said. JCF Capital ULC, the closely-held U.S. firm that owns the building, is also in talks with Hilton Worldwide Holdings Inc., which has pitched its Waldorf Astoria name, and Mandarin Oriental International Ltd., said the people, who asked not to be identified discussing confidential details. Keeping the Trump brand is also an option, they said.

I'd love to see the Trump name removed from any luxury hotel...and I'd love to see St Regis, one of my favorite brands, take over. Nice move if it comes to fruition.

Another SPG property would be a great addition to downtown Toronto as well. The Sheraton is large and well-located, but I don't love it, and the Westin is a bit less well-located on the lakeshore. Fingers crossed on this one...

One of us is missing something here. St Regis is part of Starwood which was bought by Marriott in quite a high profile way. If you look on the company websites and press releases, they've now all been brought under Marriott.
