STAYING AGILE IS CRITICAL. FORTUNATELY, OPENING
MORE THAN 1,100 NEW* HOTELS HAS KEPT US IN SHAPE.
In the past six years, Hilton Worldwide has opened more than 1,100 new hotels around the world, bringing us to more
than 4,000 hotels in 90 countries today.* In Canada, we have 88 hotels open from coast to coast with a growing pipeline
of 18 hotels under construction and over 25 fully approved projects. Impressive growth, made possible by our ability to
adapt to the world’s increasingly complex business environments. As a result, we’ve developed a wealth of experience
creating and operating the most award-winning portfolio of hotels in the industry. Not a bad workout for a 94-year-old.

EDITOR’S PAGE
IN THE KNOW
C
ontent is king. That’s a fact we’ve
quickly learned in this informationbased millennium. Today, we often
measure power by how in the know we are.
Whether we are entangled in the tentacles
of technology or just trying to live as simply
as possible without being overwhelmed by
it, many of us are driven by what’s new,
who’s doing what and how it may impact
our business or personal life.
In today’s increasingly complex hotel
industry, being in the know means having
an intricate understanding of the hotel
ownership structure — sometimes referred to as a labyrinth — with a focus
on how it affects business.
Consumers don’t necessarily care about ownership structures as they
are more concerned with what the brands promise and whether or not
an individual hotel is actually delivering on them. It’s the hotel owners,
managers and franchisees who dictate how a hotel will run and ultimately
whether it delivers on the brand promise and attracts the hotel guests
needed to survive and thrive.
As has become customary every fall, in this double issue of Hotelier,
we’re happy to present this year’s edition of The Who’s Who Almanac,
listing the industry’s top players, including the owners, developers and
managers who are part of the dynamic hotel industry as well as the designers, brokers, bankers and consultants who supply them.
In addition to providing this in-depth almanac, featuring addresses
and contact information, we also produce a visual of the complex ownership structure, known as the Who Owns What? Poster. In the almost two
decades of producing this mammoth project, it has taken on a life of its
own. Though its genesis came at a time when REITs were changing the
face of the industry daily, today the changes are less frenetic but always
impactful on our understanding of the Canadian hotel structure.
And what better way to see just how complex this industry truly is than
unfolding the poster and placing it on your office wall to help you navigate
the hotel landscape. In fact, it’s always gratifying to see this chart displayed
by many leading hoteliers as well as industry analysts and at the universities and colleges producing the next stars in hospitality. It means we’re
effectively doing our job. The always changing and fluid industry will keep
everyone guessing as to how this chart will continue to evolve over the
coming years.
Happy reading!

THE LATEST INDUSTRY NEWS FOR HOTEL EXECUTIVES FROM CANADA
AND AROUND THE WORLD
THE SPORTING LIFE
The new Hotel X in Toronto will boast a
71,000-sq.-ft. sports club and spa, available
to guests and club members. “If you see
what’s going on in Liberty Village with the
development of so many condos, there
are so many things these people need
to enhance their living experience in this
area,” says Celso Thompson, director of
Sales and Marketing for Hotel X, speaking
X MARKS THE SPOT
of residents in the nearby neighbourhood.
The upcoming Hotel X in Toronto expands on the vision for
renewal at the city’s Exhibition Place BY HELEN CATELLIER
T
he fruitless banter over waterfront revitalization at Toronto City Hall
hasn’t hampered the frenzy of construction at Exhibition Place, located
west of the downtown core. The complex is a hub of sporting events,
concerts, conventions and tradeshows and will host up to 13 sports competitions during the 2015 Pan Am Games.
The Exhibition Place website notes that more than 5.3-million people visit
the 192-acre parkland annually; and they will soon have a place to lay their
heads for the first time. “This area of town needs a hotel,” says Celso Thompson,
director of Sales and Marketing for the new Hotel X in Toronto, currently under
construction. “With the Direct Energy Centre and Allstream Centre having
so much meeting space, they need the support of a hotel to bring even more
business into this area. Plus, the city is growing towards the west, so this is a
great location.”
It will be the first Canadian property for Princes Gate Hotel, LP, the legal
entity of New York City-based management company, Library Hotel Collection.
Designed by Stephen B. Jacobs Group, P.C. in New York City, the $240-million
hotel’s blueprint involves a plan to incorporate natural lighting and five green
roofs. The goal is to create a sustainable property and attain the highest possible
LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) rating. “The project
is positioned to get up to 61 points, which would give us a silver certification,”
Thompson says. “[This] is really high and difficult to attain but translates into
about a 29-per-cent savings in energy consumption for a building of that type
and that size.”
Overlooking Toronto’s waterfront, the property will sit adjacent to the Direct
Energy Centre and connect to the Allstream Centre via a sky bridge. It will
feature lavish gardens, 406 guestrooms and suites, four restaurants, six bars, two
swimming pools, retail outlets, 44,000 sq. ft. of meeting space and an 11,500-sq.ft. theatre complex with three screening rooms.
Nightly rates will start at $500 and will rocket to $6,000 for the two-storey
presidential suite. The good news is there will be time to build anticipation for
the city’s next luxury hotel, which is slated to open in December 2015.
hoteliermagazine.com
“There isn’t such a club right at their feet,
so we’re counting on this clientele to use
the facilities.” The complex will include
areas for weights, cardio, physical therapy,
yoga and Pilates, plus 10 squash courts,
four indoor tennis courts and a 9,100-sq.ft. spa with a terrace and private gym for
hotel guests.
ALL DUE RESPECT
In 1840, the British army established a
military post at the site of the new Hotel
X in Toronto. Known as the Stanley
Barracks, the seven limestone buildings
stood until the early 1950s when all but
the Officers’ Quarters were demolished.
The historic site is being unearthed and
will be integrated into the design of the
hotel. The original foundation of one of
the buildings, along with coins, cooking
supplies, bottles and other artifacts, will
honour the site’s archaeological value.

BITS
AND
BYTES
Look no further than the recent
credit-card security breaches
at Target and Home Depot to
see hackers have found new ways to access credit-card data.
It’s not just a retail problem. Parsippany, N.J.-based Wyndham
Worldwide was charged by the U.S. Federal Trade Commission
with “failure to maintain reasonable security, allowing intruders
to obtain unauthorized access to the computer networks of
Wyndham Hotels and Resorts, LLC and several hotels franchised
and managed by Wyndham.”
And, as the complexity of data security evolves, it’s not just
the big companies that require “cyber-liability” insurance. All
hoteliers have a legal responsibility to protect the storage, transmission and processing of their guests’ credit-card transaction
data. Thankfully, there are new developments to help stave off
security breaches.
First, hoteliers should understand how customers’ personal
data — particularly credit-card data (known as PCI compliance)
— is stored on their computer systems, who has access to it and
when it has been accessed, leaving a trail for future audits.
Hoteliers should also implement safeguards such as P2PE
(point-to-point encryption), which maintains a “protective state”
throughout the credit-card transaction, even keeping hacked
data secure by ciphering it. Another option is tokenization, a
process whereby the hotel receives a payment token (or reference number) during the authorization process, forgoing the
need to process the payment with a credit-card number.
If Wyndham is found guilty by the Trade Commission of
failing to protect their guests’ private information, there may be
far-reaching consequences for the hospitality industry, such as
additional lawsuits. So, hoteliers must assume responsibility for
sensitive guest data and prevent further breaches.
FAST FACTS
Credit-card security breaches are a troubling issue in the
industry, according to U.S.-based Hospitality Technology
magazine’s “2014 Lodging Technology Study” and its “2014
Restaurant Technology Study.” The studies show:
• Restaurants and hotels are among the leading three industries
most compromised by security breaches.
• Forty-three per cent of hotels have adapted P2PE (point-topoint encryption).
• Thirty per cent of hotels use tokenization.
• The time it takes to find out that a security breach has occurred
varies greatly, from less than 24 hours (self-detection) to 14
days (if advised by a third party).

OCTOBER/NOVEMBER 2014 HOTELIER
Beginning in November, the Sheraton Centre Toronto will embark on a $90-million floor-to-ceiling renovation of its guestrooms
and suites, which will be outfitted with new case goods, seating,
lighting, mirrors and window treatments, incorporating rich colours, graphic patterns and clean lines (see mock-up, pictured).
“As one of Toronto’s most prominent landmark hotels, it’s essential for us to provide the best accommodations and experience
possible for visitors to the city,” said David Connor, area managing director, Eastern Canada, Starwood Hotels & Resorts in
Toronto. “The extensive renovation to our guestrooms and suites
will bring a revived energy to our hotel.” The revamped rooms
will feature 50" flat-screen televisions and low-flow bath fixtures.
Two additional guestrooms will be built, bringing the room count
to 1,373. The project also encompasses a new HVAC system
and refurbished corridors and hallways. The reno comes on the
heels of a $13-million investment in new windows, reinforcing
the hotel’s commitment to reduce energy consumption by 30 per
cent and water consumption by 20 per cent by 2020.
ON-THE-GO
PAYMENTS
Toronto-based Moneris Solutions has partnered with
Ingenico Group, based in Paris, France, to deploy Canada’s
first contactless mobile payment solution. The
new Payd Pro device, along with complimentary
app, works with smartphones and tablets, allowing on-the-go merchants to accept both Interac
debit and credit-card payments via chip and pin,
swipe and contactless acceptance technology.
“Debit becomes the enabler,” said Jeff Guthrie,
chief sales officer for Moneris Solutions in
Toronto. “Canadians love debit transactions.
And one of the problems up until now with
mobile payments, is it couldn’t accept any
form of Interac debit, which has to be either
chip- and pin-verified or, for payments under
$100, contactless.” With Payd Pro, debit is
fully enabled and fully secure and an ideal
option for shops in small hotels or bed
and breakfast properties.

T
o an industry
outsider, the
name “Hilton”
may conjure up
images of a certain
jet-setting heiress
with pint-sized
puppies and
perfume lines. It
may even evoke words such as dynasty, luxury or class. In fact, a betterfitting word to describe the longstanding hotel chain is resilience.
The ability to withstand a hurricane of change is ingrained in
Hilton’s storied history. Interestingly,
Hilton hotels would not exist had its
founder, Conrad Hilton, landed in
Cisco, Texas, in 1919 and purchased
the bank he had his eye on. Instead,
Hilton became intrigued by the
booming business a local hotel was
generating and bought the 40-room
Mobley Hotel.

LAYING DOWN A LEGACY American hotel baron Conrad Hilton founded the Hilton hotel
chain in Cisco, Texas. Today, Hilton Worldwide comprises 4,200 properties in 93 countries
By the 1950s, Hilton had unveiled
numerous innovations, including
“Hilcron,” a centralized reservation
office where customers could make
a reservation at any of his properties
by telephone, telegram or Teletype.
Shortly after, air conditioning was
installed in guestrooms.
The Hilton brand was eventually
established in Canada in 1953 in
Montreal, followed by the opening of
full-service properties in key markets
such as Toronto, Windsor, Ont. and
Edmonton in the subsequent years.
By 1964, the company spun off its
international operations, resulting in
two separate operating companies:
Hilton Hotels Corp., based in Beverly
Hills, Calif., which oversaw U.S.
hotels; and Hilton International,
based in Watford, U.K., which was
responsible for international properties, including Canada.
Operating as two separate entities
created headaches and development
restrictions, not to mention branding
nightmares and overall disjointedness, so executives came to an agreement in 1997 to share logos, promote
each other’s brands and share a reser-
FRENCH CONNECTION Hilton’s
early days as a hotel company were marked
by much excitement, including the opening
of the Montreal Airport Hilton (depicted,

(depicted left) opened as a 21-storey

Some industry leaders can trace
their roots to Hilton. In 1973,
Philippe Gadbois, SVP of Operations
at Montreal-based Atlific Hotels, got
his start in hospitality as a doorman
at the Queen Elizabeth hotel in
Montreal, then managed by Hilton
International. The property housed
the Hilton University in Canada, an
in-house training centre for Hilton
employees who would travel from
around the world to attend the school
for up to six weeks (today, it’s offered
online). “[The Hilton Queen Elizabeth] was the biggest hotel in Hilton
International’s stable and therefore
the training ground that carved out
pretty good careers in this industry,”
reminisces Gadbois, who became
12
OCTOBER/NOVEMBER 2014 HOTELIER
chairman and president of Hilton
Canada in 1994.
Up until the late ’90s, brand diversification was limited to a handful of
full-service units. But that changed
in 1999 when Hilton Hotels Corp.
acquired Memphis, Tenn.-based
Promus Hotel Corporation, which
brought new brands, including
DoubleTree Hotels, Embassy Suites,
Hampton Inn and Homewood Suites,
to Hilton’s stable. “The brands were
very clear on what they [offered],”
says Vito Curalli, executive director, Canada, Latin America &
International for Hilton Worldwide.
“But what they got when they were
purchased was the Hilton engine —
the reservation engine, the marketing, the sales, all the things that we
offer to franchisees today.”
The transformations continued
in 2006 when Hilton Hotels Corp.
acquired Hilton International. Then,
before the financial crash, Hilton
Hotels Corp. was acquired by New
York-based private equity firm Blackstone Group LP in a $26-billion deal.
Hilton Worldwide Holdings Inc. was
taken public last December, raising
an industry record-setting $2.35billion IPO.
Nearly a century and 4,200 hotels
since Conrad Hilton put his stamp on
the Mobley, the hotel baron continues to make his mark on audiences
— he’s been immortalized on the hit
TV show Mad Men, and his properties have been featured in blockbuster
movies such as Godzilla.
Meanwhile, throughout the years,
Hilton Worldwide’s subsidiary, Hilton
Canada, based in Mississauga, Ont.,
has been amassing a stable of more
than 100 units (and growing). And,
in 2013, Hilton Canada generated
$543 million in sales, a two-percent bump over the previous year’s
estimated $532 million. “It’s a big
achievement, particularly in this day
and age,” enthuses Tony Pollard,
president of the Ottawa-based Hotel
Association of Canada. “Everyone’s
very competitive and trying to work
within new realities of finances.... For
Hilton to achieve 100 hotels, our hats
go off to them.”

BUILD ME UP Dual-branded sites, such as
the Homewood Suites by Hilton and Hampton Inn by Hilton Toronto Airport Corporate
Centre (opposite page, top), or the Homewood Suites by Hilton and Hampton Inn by
Hilton Halifax-Downtown (above) are attractive developments for franchisees; the new
Home2 Suites by Hilton West Edmonton
(opposite page, bottom), is poised to attract
business clientele with many grab-and-go
breakfast options
MAPPING SUCCESS
Part of the formula for Hilton’s continued development is planting seeds
in growing markets with neighbouring amenities, industry and office
space. “We want to be in the best
locations in town, and are willing to
take a pass on projects if they aren’t,
because the location makes the hotel
perform,” Thomas Lorenzo, Hilton
Worldwide’s VP and managing
director of Development - Canada
& Northeast U.S., explains, adding
the development team is making
inroads into secondary and tertiary
markets as well. Hampton Inn has
the strongest distribution in Hilton’s
[Canadian] stable, adds Lorenzo,
with 42 locations in Canada, it also
has nine under construction, seven
approved and 15 to 20 in working
deals. “It’s a substantial portion of our
pipeline,” he says.
These days, franchisees are turning
their attention to the western
markets. The team is on track to
open six hotels during the next six
months in Lloydminster, Alta.,
Airdrie, Alta., Sherwood Park,
Alta., Saskatoon and Victoria, and
further projects have been approved
in Medicine Hat, Alta., Edmonton,
Calgary and Saskatoon.
An integral part to the ongoing
expansion is cultivating franchi-
see relationships. From Markham,
Ont.-based Easton’s Group of Hotels
to Mississauga, Ont.-based Manga
Hotels, multi-unit franchisees
comprise more than 75 per cent
of Hilton’s franchisee base,
Lorenzo estimates.
Some multi-unit franchisees
are optimizing the markets they’re
already in by opening dual-branded
hotels. “Usually, every dual-branded
project includes an extended-stay and
a transient-style hotel. It could be a
Hilton Garden Inn, Homewood or a
Hampton, but [franchisees want] to
go after a unique segment of business,
so they don’t overlap,” explains
Lorenzo. “They get synergies from
both a capital investment perspective, because there would be shared
infrastructure items like pools, eating
spaces, gyms, employee break rooms
and laundry [rooms].”
Hilton’s 100th property in Canada
builds on this trend. Located on the
former site of The Citadel Halifax
Hotel in Nova Scotia, it features

FRANCHISEE EXCELLENCE
This past May, Hilton Worldwide
presented five awards, which
recognized top franchisees, and
Canadian properties picked up significant honours. “With more than
80 per cent of our company’s hotels
franchised, the strong relationships
we have forged over the years
with our owner partners allow us to
continue to provide superior service and innovative products to our
guests, while also expanding our
footprint not only in the Americas,
but globally,” said Ian Carter,
president, Global Development,
Hilton Worldwide. Hamilton, Ont.based Vrancor Group nabbed
Developer of the Year honours
for Homewood Suites by Hilton,
with its three Ontario properties in
Hamilton, Timmins and North Bay.
On the multi-brand front, SilverBirch
Hotels & Resorts emerged the
winner for its DoubleTree by Hilton
Hotel West Edmonton, DoubleTree
by Hilton Hotel & Conference
Centre Regina, Hampton Inn &
Suites by Hilton Halifax-Dartmouth
and Homewood Suites by Hilton
Halifax-Downtown.

OCTOBER/NOVEMBER 2014 HOTELIER
COMFORTABLE ELEGANCE Curio (above), a new collection of hotels by Hilton, has yet to debut
in Canada but comprises unique hospitality experiences worldwide; Hilton’s Diamond Status HHonors
loyalty membership (opposite page), offers perks such as room guarantees and free Wi-Fi; inviting lobbies, such as the one in the Hilton Garden Inn Toronto Downtown, welcome guests (below)
a Homewood Suites by Hilton
and Hampton Inn by Hilton. The
Halifax-based property combo,
which opened in the summer, is
part of a five-property, $220-million
investment from Vancouver-based
SilverBirch Hotels & Resorts, which
includes three other Hilton-branded
projects in Edmonton and Regina.
GM Trevor Morgan, who serves as
area director of Operations for Atlantic Canada for SilverBirch Hotels &
Resorts, has returned to his roots in
Halifax, having managed the former
Citadel Halifax Hotel from 2001 to
2003. “Halifax is a business hub in
Atlantic Canada,” says the GM of
the new development, which has a
combined occupancy of 53.5 per cent
for 2014, at an average daily rate of
$148, with $79 in RevPAR. “It has
been a stable market for a long time,
but the additional demand that will
be created through the shipbuilding contract is attractive, especially
when it comes to Homewood Suites.”
Building on the momentum of its
100th unit, Hilton is ushering in new
brands domestically and globally.
SilverBirch recently opened Canada’s
first Home2 Suites by Hilton in
Edmonton, a 127-suite extended-stay
hotel packed with studio suites and
an integrated fitness and laundry
room. And, Hilton’s newest brand,
Curio, which is yet to be signed in
Canada, is a curated collection of
four- to five-star properties with
unique experiences in each, with
hotels such as the boutique Highland
Dallas in Texas and the upscale SLS
Las Vegas in Nevada.
SERVE AND CONNECT
For most hotel operators, ensuring repeat business takes more than
offering imaginative hotel design,
thoughtful customer service and
hyper-clean rooms. In fact, loyalty
programs are a big part of Hilton
hoteliermagazine.com
Canada’s marketing incentives.
Hilton HHonors, which was launched
in 1987, has grown to include 38-million members worldwide.
The loyalty program is split into
four tiers, from Blue (lowest) to
Silver, Gold and Diamond. Each tier
offers different perks, ranging from
specific room choices and complimentary in-room Wi-Fi to the use of
executive lounges.
A significant portion of Hilton’s
business stems from its über-loyal
Hilton HHonors guests. Franchisees
invest marketing fees to fuel this
program, but it generates the highestrated business, explains Lorenzo.
“Most of [the loyalty members] are
corporate customers, and they’re
not angling to get the lowest rate
possible — they just want quality
accommodations.”
Canadians, especially, are interested in loyalty programs, explains
Curalli, speaking of the benefits that
accompany incentive initiatives
such as HHonors. In fact, enrolment
numbers in Canada are increasing
every year for the Hilton program,
which is continually evolved and
improved to attract
new members.
The uptake in
reward membership programs may
have grown during
the recession, but
either way the trend
is echoed by Hotel
Association of
Canada research, says
Pollard. “When we
TRUE BLUE
Customers are interested in a loyalty
program that offers a multi-tier approach
to rewards and status. According to a
2014 study by Colloquy Research, a
Cincinnati, Ohio-based firm that analyzed consumer attitudes towards loyalty program tiers, half of respondents
changed their behaviour to reach a
higher status or receive more benefits,
and 69 per cent said they have no problem with buying their way into a higher
tier. Hilton Worldwide’s long-standing
Hilton HHonors program taps into this
trend by offering a multi-tier approach
to loyalty, from Blue Status (the lowest) to Diamond Status. The program,
which kicked off in 1987 as an “instant
win” scratch-off promotion as part of
the U.S. Olympic Team’s sponsorship,
has evolved to include multiple reward
levels and philanthropic uses, such
as the HHonors Giving Back program,
where members can donate their points
to charitable organizations, such as
Habitat for Humanity, the Make-A-Wish
Foundation and the World Wildlife Fund.
first started doing the [Hotel Association of Canada] survey around 2005,
the importance of loyalty programs
for business travellers and even
leisure travellers had gone from over
20 per cent to over 60 per cent in
nearly 10 years; so if you are a hotel
company with a very strong loyalty
program you’ll continue to admit it’s
a big driver,” he adds.
Meanwhile, Hilton’s digital
team has been streamlining the
check-in process for its smartphonewielding loyalty members. In July, it
announced a system-wide innovation that will allow Hilton HHonors
members to check-in on their smartphone and select their room from a
floor plan. They can also purchase
upgrades and make special requests.
By the end of the year, digital checkin is expected to be available across
all Hilton branded properties. Next
year, the company will begin to equip
its hotels with door locks that can be
unlocked with a guest’s smartphone.

connecting with guests on social
media in new ways, beyond traditional Facebook and Twitter. For
example, employees tweet restaurant
recommendations and provide local
information to guests using Hilton’s
@HiltonSuggests Twitter handle.
The feed is monitored by locally
appointed team members, from
housekeepers to office managers,
who give clout to the local vibe.
After all, today’s discerning customers expect more than a place to
lay their head after a busy day —
they expect an experience that
extends beyond their stay. u

CELEBRATING 25 YEARS
OF EXCELLENCE
Do you want to reach and
influence the leaders in Canada’s
hotly competitive hotel industry?
Then you should advertise in
Hotelier, Canada’s most authoritative
industry magazine.
While others may lay claim to the Hotelier
moniker, there’s only one Hotelier!
• It’s national (More than 10,000 subscribers and more than
45,000 readers)
• It’s authoritative (Anticipated and trusted by the industry’s leaders)
• It’s audited (Third-party CCAB audit ensures we reach who we
say we reach)
• It’s trusted (Readers take action on what they read)
• It has integrity (We walk the talk)
• It has longevity in the field (It’s been around since 1989).
Since 1989, Hotelier has been covering happenings
in Canada’s $18-billion industry. Our coverage of
the hotel industry is unparalleled and unrivalled.
We write about the news that matters to the industry
from topics of interest to profiles on the movers and
shakers in the industry, to controversial issues that are
making headlines.
Published eight times a year, Hotelier gives advertisers
a unique opportunity to reach the industry’s decision
makers, those who make the purchasing decisions.
After 25 years of covering Canada’s vibrant hotel
industry, we have created a comprehensive database of
10,000 decision makers who demand a publication that
puts their needs first.
