IHG, Denham, England, signed a deal with Maplewood Hotels & Resorts to develop 15 new-build Candlewood Suites throughout Canada over the next few years.
Formed in 2013, Maplewood is a joint venture between Driftwood Hospitality Management and Pacrim Hospitality Services Inc.
“Driftwood is eager to continue our expansion in Canada through our strategic partnership with Pacrim,” said Carlos Rodriguez, principal and executive vice president for Driftwood. “We’re also keen on strengthening our relationship with IHG, which is why the development of new Candlewood Suites hotels through Maplewood is a perfect fit.”
