Motel/Hotel Component

Conveniently located on site, this addition would make the Gateway the number one destination of choice for a multitude of events. To this end, OAS been involved with the Olds Institute in putting together presentations for Tourism Alberta Investment Symposiums. Opportunities like this just don’t come by very often. And when they do, astute investors sit up and take notice. The town of Olds is that kind of opportunity. The citizens and business community are pleased to roll out the red carpet for prospective hotel and convention centre developers and franchises. Olds is ready for you!
