New Castle Hotels & Resort Celebrates Topping-Off of Dual-Branded Marriott/Residence Inn in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia
Pouring the final slab of rooftop concrete, officials of New Castle Hotels & Resorts, a leading hotel owner, operator and developer, along with Southwest Properties
of Halifax, Nova Scotia and JLK Global Fund International marked the
structure complete milestone on a 190-key Courtyard by
Marriott/Residence Inn hotel in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia.
The project, scheduled to open in January 2019, will include a
106-room Courtyard by Marriott and an 84-suite Residence Inn in the Dartmouth Crossing lifestyle center and in close proximity to the Burnside Business Park,
the largest eastern seaboard business park north of Boston or east of
Montreal. The park is home to 2000 enterprises and more than 30,000
employees.
“Halifax regional tourism
is on a steady growth trajectory, having increased nearly six percent
in 2017 and more than 23 percent since 2012,” said Guido Kerpel vice
president of operations for New Castle. “Our Hampton Inn and Suites in
the same area has far exceeded everyone's expectations, so we feel
confident that two strategically selected Marriott hotels will go a long
way to meet the varied needs of a large swath of the travelling public,
in particular, the points-conscious business traveler,”
New Castle and Southwest have partnered previously on the Residence
Inn Moncton, New Brunswick, the Hampton Inn and Suites by Hilton
Halifax-Dartmouth in Nova Scotia and The Algonquin Resort in St.
Andrews, New Brunswick.
