“I was so pleased to join the local team to celebrate the first-ever Canadian Hard Rock Hotel, where music, entertainment and hospitality will come together to create truly unforgettable guest experiences,” said Rees. “We are proud to be able to share the iconic energy of the Hard Rock brand with guests in the region and from across the globe.”
“The property will help strengthen London’s economy, and its culture and tourism industries, and is perfectly positioned within Canada’s only UNESCO City of Music,” said hotel General Manager, Brendon Ainscow. “As a Londoner, I couldn’t be more proud and excited to see our city officially become home to Canada’s First Hard Rock Hotel. With the addition of this hotel, London is strengthening its role as an international hub for music and culture. Our local team of over 100 employees are ready to welcome visitors from Southwestern Ontario and across the globe.”
