Here's what the hotel on the CNE grounds will look like

Construction on the nearly 30 storey hotel at Exhibition Place is well underway. With more than 400 suites, a 71,000 square-foot sports club and a massive rooftop pool, Hotel X Toronto is slated to open in spring 2016.

The Library Hotel Collection is behind the project, and the company currently has numerous, highly-rated, luxurious properties in New York City as well as in Prague and Budapest.

Thanks to discovery of contaminated soil, building was delayed in 2013. It was just one setback in a long line of delays because as the Globe and Mail reported back in 2009, plans for a Exhibition Place hotel cropped up as early as 1999. Now, it's finally coming to fruition.
