A major Chinese tourism company is preparing to pitch a hotel deal worth $50 million to Nanaimo city council.
Nanaimo Economic Development Corporation CEO Sasha Angus said the offer to build a luxury hotel in downtown Nanaimo offers an "incredible opportunity" for the city.
Representatives from Suzhou Youth Travel Services Co. Ltd. are slated to make their pitch to councillors at the next council meeting Monday night. Under the proposal, the investors would build a 200-suite building with a rooftop restaurant on the city-owned vacant site next to the Vancouver Island Conference Centre.
