DECEMBER 20, 2016, HAPPY VALLEY-GOOSE BAY, LABRADOR – Today Nunacor announced that it has acquired the Royal Inn and Suites, a well-established hotel in Happy Valley-Goose Bay.
The Royal Inn and Suites, now named the Royal Inn + Suites, has been in operation for over 30 years. While guests can still expect the same quality and service, Nunacor plans to introduce some exciting new amenities in the new year. A state-of-the-art fitness centre will be constructed and fibre-optic high speed Internet will be available to guests. New modern bedding will also be added and its complimentary breakfast will be enhanced to include fresh homemade breads and muffins. Nunacor is also pleased to feature its new custom coffee Mamattuk Roast at the hotel.
The hotel’s website, available at www.royalinnandsuites.ca, has been redesigned with a new brand and logo. It will soon include an online booking option, the first hotel in the area to offer this feature.
This purchase is effective immediately.
