Which I am happy about

Definitely nice to have the capacity to accommodate more tourists in the area.

 

However, I would have liked a hotel like Embassy Suites to have chosen to build a skyscraper like in Niagara Falls:

I was wondering why. I was walking past it yesterday and it was saying that space was available still. I was thinking to myself, thought this was going to be a hotel and not a condo project anymore. I am happy to see more things in the city are condo/hotel.

 

There is a place in NYC. You buy a room and the hotel can rent it out when people stay a night or week, when you are gone, which is good too a certain extent.

Hier, dans la Presse, section Mon Toit, il y avait une annonce de l'Étoile où l'on pouvait y voir «occupation immédiate» dessus.

 

Moi je trouve que confirme que la construction est terminée.

 

Quelqu'un pourrait confirmer avant que je transfère ce fil vers la section «complétés»?

EDIT : J'ai eu le temps de retoucher mes photos, j'ai donc remplacé les anciennes par les nouvelles.

Pas mal déçu du rendu final..

 

C'était pas supposé être couleur grises à moins que je sois aveugle..

En fait, c'est exactement la couleur que son voisin The Gazette :Gris-Beige Vomi.

 

C'est effectivement très laid.

It allows for a wide range of portable devices such as laptop computers, video game players, MP3 players and iPods, camcorders, DVD/CD players to be connected and played through the hotel television panel.

 

'We are excited to open the first Embassy Suites by Hilton in Montréal and introduce award-winning and renowned level of hospitality and professionalism for which Embassy Suites is known. We are convinced the Embassy Suites will be an exciting addition to the Montreal business and leisure market," said Roberto Aquilini of Aquilini Investments (owners and developers of the project).

 

The hotel will also carry the 'by Hilton' moniker in its name and exterior signage. Recently, the brand announced it will add 'by Hilton' to existing and future hotels in Latin America and Canada, along with sister brands Hampton® and Doubletree®.
