TORONTO — Choice Hotels Canada has opened its latest Ascend Hotel Collection, the Amsterdam Inn & Suites in Florenceville, N.B. The Ascend Hotel Collection is a network of upscale resorts, historic properties and boutique hotels that offer guests a uniquely local experience.
Owned by the deWinter family, the Amsterdam Inn & Suites in Florenceville is the fourth hotel in their award-winning portfolio of Canadian-owned New Brunswick-based properties.
“The deWinter’s are third-generation hoteliers and we are confident that under their leadership, the Florenceville property will continue to be a sought-after hotel in the region,” says Brian Leon, CEO of Choice Hotels Canada. “The passion the family has for hospitality comes through in all their endeavours and we are thrilled to support them in their journey.”
“Our relationship with Choice Hotels Canada has evolved over the years, and we are delighted to be part of the Ascend Hotel Collection for the first time,” says John DeWinter, CEO of Amsterdam Inn & Suites. “The flexibility to use our own branding, as well as our first foray into foodservice, makes this a really exciting time for our company.”
The newly-opened property has 80 spacious guest suites with amenities such as mini-fridges, desks, coffee makers and pillow-top mattresses.
