Accent Inns is keeping some very good company these days.

The BC-based hotel chain—whose Vancouver Airport hotel is located in Richmond—has just been named Business of the Year by the Tourism Industry Association of Canada.

“We are absolutely delighted,” says Mandy Farmer, CEO and president of Accent Inns. “We have an incredible team who work tirelessly to provide the best guest experience. I am thrilled their efforts are being recognized.”

Under Farmer’s leadership, Accent Inns is enjoying a resurgence. The business has attracted a strong team of senior leadership and its net income has increased by seven-and-half times since 2013. The success can be attributed to an innovative approach and employee passion and commitment.

The Canadian Tourism Awards are presented annually to recognize excellence in Canada’s tourism by rewarding successful and innovative businesses, people, places and events that have gone above and beyond to offer a superior tourism experience to travellers in Canada.
