Here are 6 Date Ideas for a Romantic Valentine’s Day in The 6ix

Experience Fine Dining at Fairmont

After a month of takeout and dining at home, Valentine’s Day is the perfect time to get back on Toronto’s restaurant scene. Spending the evening with Fairmont for a luxurious fine dining experience. They are offering a four-course menu beginning with a Kumamoto Oyster Amuse Bouche, featuring fresh Scallops, Sablefish and Striploin, with a dessert finish of a Dark Chocolate Cherry Heart. If you’re feeling extra special you can even spend the night at this exquisite hotel! For more information, click here.

Fall in Love with Love at 1 Hotel

Nothing says romance like a romantic getaway right? Step into a sustainable oasis in the middle of the city with a staycation at 1 Hotel! You and your special someone can book their “In Love with Love” package which includes 40% off best available rates, complimentary parking, and a complimentary bottle of sparkling wine upon arrival to toast to the occasion. For more information, click here!

Explore the City

The cold can’t stop us Torontonians from exploring the city we love. Spend the evening with your loved one walking the streets of the city hand in hand. From the Distillery District to the Harbour and Nathan Philips Square, there’s nothing quite like losing track of time while deep in conversation. Some of my best memories involve walking the city at night with my summer love…oh those were the days.

Staycation and Skate at Bisha

With the pandemic restrictions still in place, it isn’t as easy to hop on a plane for a getaway as it once was but don’t worry, you can still feel like you’re on a retreat within our beautiful city! Bisha Hotel has converted their fourth floor balcony into a private skating rink! The skating experience is available to guests who book a stay at the Bisha and is accessible via the Bisha Suite which has been transformed into a cozy winter chalet. Picture an evening full of hot chocolate, coffee and tea and a selection of pastries from French Made café, while enjoying the outdoor skating rink with a view of the city.

Spend the Night at a Secret Speakeasy

There’s nothing sexier than a secret lounge. Dim lights, crafted cocktails and music create the perfect setting for a romantic evening. After dinner, head over to Coffee Oysters and Champaign and ask to take a tour of their champagne room. You can thank me later.

Enjoy Each Other’s Company at a Museum

If you’re looking for a deeper connection this Valentine’s Day, you need to explore one of Toronto’s museums with your lover! Whether you’re interested in art or history, the Toronto museum scene has something to offer. Hold hands and make your way through an exhibit slowly while commenting on what you’re seeing. One of the more unique date ideas to try out!
