Edmonton Arena District Partners With Delta Hotels

The EAD joint venture has announced Delta Hotels and Resorts as the hotel partner for the Edmonton Arena District.

EAD aims to position Edmonton as a world-class destination, and is developed by a joint venture between Katz Group and WAM Development Group.

 With construction to be completed in fall 2017, the new Delta Edmonton hotel will become downtown’s first newly constructed four-star, full-service hotel in three decades.

Designed to match the contemporary architecture and design of the EAD, the tower will exceed 50 storeys in height.  The 26 storey hotel tower, with private condos reaching into the skyline, will bring a new level of luxury to Edmonton’s city centre.

The hotel will consist of 362 guest rooms and suites, a luxury pool, outdoor terrace and expansive fitness facilities. It will house approximately 24,000 sq. ft. of state of the art ballroom, meeting and conference space, with access to an outdoor area overlooking the EAD’s public plaza.

The unveiling of Delta as the hotel partner follows the announcements of the City of Edmonton and Stantec tenancies in the EAD, and the unveiling of Edmonton’s tallest tower. With construction of the hotel parkade scheduled to begin in fall 2014 and the main hotel tower to begin in fall 2015, the continued progress of the EAD marks new growth and development for Edmonton.
