Construction has started on a new hotel and parkade at Kelowna International Airport (YLW).
The Sutton Place Hotel Kelowna represents a private investment of $100 million at the airport. The luxury Canadian brand hotel chain is owned and operated by BC-based Northland Properties.
This hotel will offer guests and locals access to amenities such as business conference facilities, an indoor leisure and fitness centre, full-service valet, and concierge services. It will feature an on-site full-service restaurant, along with a viewing lounge that provides views of the surrounding area.
