CYCLING CANADA TO PARTNER WITH GERMAIN HOTELS

Ottawa, ON (May 29, 2019) – Cycling Canada is pleased to announce that Germain Hotels has joined its family of partners with a commitment to provide support for the organization through its network of Le Germain Hotels and Alt Hotels properties across the country.

The partnership will provide Cycling Canada with access to complimentary hotel and conference facilities as well as discounts at select hotels across Canada. Germain Hotels owns properties in most major markets in Canada under several banners, including Le Germain Hotels, Alt Hotels and Alt+ Hotel.

Cycling Canada and Germain Hotels first partnered in the fall of 2018 to host Cycling Canada’s Annual Congress at the Alt Hotel in Ottawa. More recently, Alt Hotels in Calgary and Ottawa have played host to Officials Committee and Board meetings for Cycling Canada. In early June Cycling Canada and Lexus will partner with Germain Hotels to host a luxury cycling retreat at Le Germain in Charlevoix for winners of a 2018 year-long contest run by Lexus online and at cycling events across the country.

“We are thrilled to be working with Germain Hotels,” said Matthew Jeffries, Executive Director at Cycling Canada. “As a national organization with programs and events all across the country our athletes and staff spend a significant amount of time on the road. To have a partner like Germain Hotels who share our passion for cycling and put such an emphasis on quality and hospitality is invaluable — we couldn’t be happier to call their hotels our home away from home.”

“We are delighted to be partnering with Cycling Canada,” said Hugo Germain, Director of development at Germain Hotels and avid cyclist. “As a Canada-wide organization they do an exceptional job at promoting cycling and Canadian talent across the globe. Our presence in the main Canadian markets allows us to help them reach their objectives whilst strengthening our commitment to promote healthy lifestyles throughout the country.”
