Guest :
Thank you for highlighting Elmwood Spa in your article on luxury spas around the world. We look forward to hosting our local and international guests this summer in our urban oasis. We're located in the heart of downtown Toronto and it's a great area for checking out theatre, great festivals and events at Yonge/Dundas Square while you're here.
