RED ROOF® ENTERS THE CALGARY, ALBERTA, CANADA MARKET

Well I have some exciting news for Canadians, especially Calgarians.  Red Roof® is expanding its presence into the Canadian market, with its first property in Calgary, Alberta. The company has partnered with FANS International Hospitality Group, an international hotel management company, to grow the brand. They are starting with the conversion of a former Travelodge hotel property at Calgary Airport into a Red Roof PLUS+ & Suites®. This is the first of multiple properties that Red Roof plans to convert in Canada, over the next five years.

Linda and Travel

Y’all know me, I am a traveler and a seeker of deals.  Knowing that a new option is becoming available in Canada makes this gal smile just a little bit. A new chain of hotels to explore, I mean why not right? Plus a brand new to me Reward Program.  I love earning points almost as much as I love travel and exploring.

Red Roof and FANS

“FANS International Hospitality Group is one of the most respected hospitality companies in Canada and partnering with them is the right decision for us,” says Andrew Alexander, President Red Roof. FANS and Red Roof share the same core values and business strategy and vision. We look forward to a productive collaboration as we continue to position the company internationally for long term profitable growth.”

A substantial investment will be made to renovate and upgrade the property to 150 rooms and suites to Red Roof high quality standards and is slated to open in late Spring 2019. The property will not only have all of the PLUS+ upgrades and amenities but will also house an off-lobby restaurant, pool and will offer airport shuttle service, appealing to both the leisure and business traveler.
