New Hotel and Parkade Coming to Kelowna
Kelowna International Airport (YLW) will welcome the Sutton Place Hotel and a new parking structure next to the airport terminal in the next couple of years. The new Sutton Place Hotel will be six stories, adding 245 hotel rooms to the region.
Among the amenities planned, the hotel dining room will offer locally inspired cuisine, offering guests a taste of the Thompson Okanagan. It will also feature a penthouse lounge, a fitness centre, and conference rooms. The Sutton Place Hotel plans to offer valet, bell-hop, and concierge services. The parking structure beside the hotel will add 1,000 parking spots to the airport campus.
The Sutton Place Hotel project is overseen and managed by Northland Properties, a Canadian-owned hospitality company. The completed Sutton Place Hotel at Kelowna International Airport will be their fifth addition to the Sutton Place Hotel brand, joining Toronto, Vancouver, Halifax, and Revelstoke Mountain Resort.
The addition of this hotel to the Thompson Okanagan will provide different advantages to travellers coming to the region. The close proximity to YLW will make things like connection flights and early or late flight times much more convenient to get to for those travelling for business purposes, while the amenities of the planned Sutton Place Hotel will offer a luxurious experience for tourist travel, setting the Thompson Okanagan apart as a premier destination.
