It’s been an exciting fall for the hotel, with several new projects and events taking flight to join our longstanding staples of year-round programming and exhibitions. New or old, it’s always excited to see hotel happenings make the news — and now we’re excited to be able to share some of this month’s press highlights with you too.  Many of these listings are also a great resource for staying in-the-know about what’s on in our neighbourhood and city. Check out October’s press highlights below to see what was talked about on the town and how the Gladstone fit into this local landscape!

It’s always exciting to be able to open up our doors as a civic living room for these parties, and having CBC there made the night feel extra special.  Click here for the full story (skip to 26.21).
