“We’re pleased to bring our first Crowne Plaza to the Hamilton area, especially in such a convenient location for business travellers," said Gina LaBarre, vice president, Brand Delivery, the Americas, IHG. "There are several major employers in the area that will benefit from the meetings-savvy products and services that only a Crowne Plaza can provide."
The hotel will feature the Crowne Plaza Sleep Advantage program, which is available at all Crowne Plaza hotels in the Americas. Sleep Advantage encompasses the entire sleep experience, from training staff on how to create and maintain a restful environment to providing innovative products and services. Program components include signature bedding, guaranteed wake-up calls, designated quiet zones, night lights, drape clips, and amenities such as eye masks, ear plugs and lavender spray.
Also consistent with the Crowne Plaza brand, the hotel offers a comprehensive meetings program to ensure a seamless planning process and exceptional meeting experience consisting of three key components: a Two-Hour Response Guarantee, Crowne Meetings Director and a Daily Meetings Debrief. The hotel’s intimate options for smaller meeting groups and special occasions are complemented by 19,000 square feet of banquet space. A 372 seat state-of-the-art theatre allows for larger scale presentations.
"Our expansion in the Ontario market has been growing at a very steady pace, and it is very appropriate that Hamilton is now home to a Crowne Plaza, further enhancing our stellar growth in Canada," said Gopal Rao, regional vice president, Sales & Marketing, Canada, IHG.
The hotel is owned by Dantes Hospitality, and managed by Concord Hospitality Enterprises Company, under a license agreement with a company in the InterContinental Hotels Group. The property is located at 150 King Street East, Hamilton, ON L8N 1B2.
