Allied Hotel Properties is a Canadian growth-oriented hotel company focused on the ownership of first class business hotels in major Canadian urban centres. While our primary goal is to maximize returns in the provision of hotel and hospitality servies within the hotel portfolio, our ultimate responsibility is to our shareholders in the maximization of share value. Financial goals will be achieved by maintaining a diversified hotel property portfolio and engaging prudent asset management. The Company will strive to increase the property and management portfolio through development and acquisition, add value to the portfolio through upgrade and repositioning initiatives, and capitalize on the expansion potential available in the exisiting portfolio and in acquired properties.
