TORONTO — Choice Hotels Canada has opened a new-build Comfort Inn & Suites in Bradford, Ont. Located in the historic downtown area of the city, the hotel is owned by Toronto-based Dhanoa Group, a leader in quick-service-restaurant management, casual-dine, hotels and real-estate development.
“We are excited to have partnered with Dhanoa Group on this newly constructed hotel in Bradford,” says Brian Leon, CEO, Choice Hotels Canada. “This is an excellent representation of the Comfort brand, with many elements of our design template, Rise & Shine, being used for the interiors.”
The project broke ground in 2023 and is currently the only branded hotel in Bradford. The hotel has 91 rooms, 18 of which are suites, with an extra sofa bed. Nine rooms are also barrier-free. Amenities in the guestrooms include microwaves, refrigerators, coffee machines, and casting-enabled 55- inch smart TVs.
Hotel amenities include a fitness room, an indoor swimming pool, EV chargers, and a meeting room that accommodates up to 36 people. The 50,000-sq.-ft. property is pet-friendly and boasts two outdoor patios. There is also a marketplace that offers frozen and refrigerated foods, as well as snacks for purchase. Like all Comfort hotels, guests can enjoy a complimentary hot breakfast with waffles, bacon, eggs, yogurt and other continental items, as well as juice and coffee.
“The response from the community has been wonderful and we are already taking bookings well into the summer,” says Upreet Dhanoa, president of Dhanoa Group Hotels. “This hotel was designed to meet the needs of travellers today and we are proud to bring a fresh hospitality experience to the market.”
