The hotel, which will be the first Marriott’s in the city, will be located in the Dartmouth Crossing lifestyle centre, nearby the Burnside Business Park in Nova Scotia.

New Castle president and COO Gerry Chase said: “The dual-brand configuration has been tremendously successful for us in other urban areas like downtown Syracuse, New York where land acquisition is costly.

“I feel very confident that this project, with known and trusted development partners, and a proven product mix, will be completed in a timely fashion and ramp up quickly to serve the unmet needs of the Dartmouth business community.”

Southwest Properties chairman & CEO Jim Spatz said: “Dartmouth Crossing is rapidly expanding with iconic brands and is attracting business travellers working in the greater Halifax region.

“The hotel is well placed in an area that is becoming a primary shopping destination for Maritime Canada and an athletic hub for Halifax with the new four-pad ice arena and the existing Harbour East soccer and football fields.

“We believe in Dartmouth Crossing because of our great success with the hotel we built and opened with New Castle Hotels in 2009.”
