The Algonquin Resort in New Brunswick, Canada, has reopened following a CA$38.6m (US$35m, £21m, €25.3m) renovation, becoming the country’s first Marriott Autograph Collection hotel.
The resort, located in St. Andrews-by-the-Sea overlooking Passamaquoddy Bay, has 233-bedrooms with renovations by Toronto-based designer, Robynne Moncur of Moncur Design preserving the hotel’s architectural details.
Originally built in 1889 for passengers from the Canadian Pacific Railway, the resort now offers two restaurants, a golf course with clubhouse, private beach, children’s playground and a new spa.
The Algonquin’s spa is currently undergoing a full redevelopment to be an on-site haven for complete wellness, offering services derived from ancient techniques of the area’s aboriginal people. The 1,400sq ft (130 sq m) spa, opening in Q2 of 2014, will offer a variety of treatments using seawater and honey from the resort’s beehives.
Facilities at the Aveda Concept Spa operated as The Algonquin Spa, will include a manicure room, pedicure room, hydro treatment room and an additional three treatment rooms. The spa is also being expanded to include salon facilities.
Health and fitness amenities at the hotel include an indoor swimming pool with spa pool, three-story waterslide and a fitness centre.
“To those of us who hail from this part of the country, the Algonquin is more than just a hotel, it is part of our heritage," said Jim Spatz, chair and CEO of developer Southwest Properties. "It's where generations of Canadians have come to make memories with family and friends, and we took that responsibility very seriously as we set out to restore this treasure to its rightful place among our nation's very best."
