. . . Five Canadian Options Now Within ALHI’s Worldwide Hotel Portfolio: Montréal, Québec City, Toronto, Vancouver & Whistler
InterContinental Toronto Yorkville in Toronto, Ontario has been accepted for membership into the prestigious organization Associated Luxury Hotels International (ALHI). The 208-room hotel joins an exclusive membership of four other Canadian properties in ALHI’s portfolio, and it will now receive national sales services by ALHI to the meetings, incentive/recognition travel, conventions, and expositions marketplaces. Meeting professionals, incentive specialists, association executives, and product launch specialists desiring to conduct meetings and programs in Canada that require from 10 to more than 500 rooms now have options from coast-to-coast, as ALHI’s portfolio now features members in Montréal, Québec City, Vancouver, Whistler and Toronto.
Planners Capitalizing on Favorable Exchange Rates
“We’re so pleased to add Toronto, and such an impressive hotel as the popular InterContinental Toronto Yorkville into our exclusive portfolio of hotels and resorts worldwide,” said David Gabri, president and CEO of ALHI. “Toronto, especially Yorkville, is such a popular and desirable choice for meeting and incentive/recognition travel programs, for scores of reasons. Our Canadian options, corporately, are all extremely attractive to the worldwide marketplace based on experience, service, access and the extremely favorable rates for our luxury-level venues for meetings and groups. Many planners are booking now to capitalize upon the favorable value exchange between the U.S. vs. Canadian dollar. Now is a wonderful time for planners to consider programs in Canada.”
