The Fairmont Royal York in Toronto partners with the Royal
Ontario Museum to offer a Feathered Dinosaur Package available until September
7, 2005
The Fairmont Royal York is proud to be one of a few select Toronto hotels to
partner with the Royal Ontario Museum (ROM) for the eagerly anticipated
Feathered Dinosaurs and the Origin of Flight exhibition. The Fairmont Royal York
will offer a Feathered Dinosaurs Package that will allow guests a chance to
enjoy priority access to the Feathered Dinosaurs and the Origin of Flight
exhibition and to experience Toronto’s landmark hotel. The Feathered Dinosaurs
Package is available at The Fairmont Royal York, located at 100 Front St. West,
Toronto, beginning on March 10 through to September 7, 2005.
Partnering with this exhibition is most appropriate, as The Fairmont Royal York
combines an exceptional cultural draw with luxurious downtown accommodation. The
hotel also celebrates a long-standing partnership with one of Toronto’s icons,
the Royal Ontario Museum. The ROM’s current exhibition Feathered Dinosaurs
displays 34 original fossils, mostly dating to 125 million years ago, recently
unearthed from the fossil beds in North Eastern China’s Liaoning Province. These
new fossil discoveries reveal important information about these ancient
creatures and the origins of feathers. Moreover, the recent findings address the
relationship between dinosaurs and birds, raising such questions as the
evolution of birds and feathers, and the use of feathers for flight. Visitors to
the ROM will also enjoy The Bird Connection, an original ROM exhibition that
delves further into the fascinating and surprising relationships between
dinosaurs and birds, presented in a fun, family-friendly style.
The ROM is the sole Canadian venue to host the traveling exhibition, organized
by The Dinosaur Museum (DM), Blanding, Utah and the Liaoning Fossil
Administration Office, and the Beipiao City Paleontological Research Center,
Liaoning, China.
The Feathered Dinosaurs Package is priced from $239 CAD/ approximately $198 USD
per night, exclusive of taxes and is based on double occupancy. Package is valid
from March 10 to September 7, 2005. The Feathered Dinosaurs Package is available
seven days a week and includes:
One night accommodation in a Fairmont Room.
Two priority access adult tickets to Feathered Dinosaurs and the Origin of
Flight at the Royal Ontario Museum (ROM), Bloor St. West at Avenue Road.
Full breakfast for two in either the Four Diamond EPIC restaurant or York’s
Kitchen family style eatery.
Reservations can be made by calling 1-800-441-1414, or online at
