EDITOR S PAGE IN THE KNOW Content 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!

Checking In THE LATEST INDUSTRY NEWS FOR HOTEL EXECUTIVES FROM CANADA AND AROUND THE WORLD THE SPORTING LIFE X MARKS THE SPOT The upcoming Hotel X in Toronto expands on the vision for renewal at the city s Exhibition Place BY HELEN CATELLIER 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 of residents in the nearby neighbourhood. The 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. 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. hoteliermagazine.com OCTOBER/NOVEMBER 2014 HOTELIER 3

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. MODEL SUITE 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. 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).

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. 4 OCTOBER/NOVEMBER 2014 HOTELIER hoteliermagazine.com ILLUSTRATION: DREAMSTIME.COM

To 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 BRAND BREAKDOWN HILTON CANADA S DISTRIBUTION, BY BRAND, AS OF PRESS TIME: 42 Hampton Inn & Suites by Hilton 21 Hilton Garden Inn 16 Homewood Suites by Hilton 14 Hilton Hotels & Resorts 6 DoubleTree by Hilton 2 Embassy Suites by Hilton 1 Home2 Suites by Hilton FRENCH CONNECTION Hilton s early days as a hotel company were marked by much excitement, including the opening of the Montreal Airport Hilton (depicted, above); The Hilton Queen Elizabeth (depicted left) opened as a 21-storey hotel with 1,216 guestrooms. Advertising material described it as the world s most modern hotel in the business and culture hub of Montreal 10 OCTOBER/NOVEMBER 2014 HOTELIER 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 reserhoteliermagazine.com

vation system. 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 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 $2.35- billion 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. 12 OCTOBER/NOVEMBER 2014 HOTELIER hoteliermagazine.com

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 franchisee 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 ESKA water is naturally filtered by protected glacial rocks in a beautiful, remote part of Canada.

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. 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 14 OCTOBER/NOVEMBER 2014 HOTELIER 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. Hilton employees are also 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 LUCKEE Restaurant Design Build by B.L.T.
