“Our re­la­tion­ships with lo­cal farm­ers and sup­pli­ers, en­sure that the is­land of To­ba­go will in­deed ben­e­fit from this new project as we seek to fuse our cul­ture with tra­di­tion­al ho­tel of­fer­ings. We look for­ward to warm­ly wel­com­ing all our guests to the new Com­fort Inn & Suites”, said Maria Yip-John, gen­er­al man­ag­er, Com­fort Inn & Suites To­ba­go.

Al­lan Richards, chair­man of Tow­ers Hos­pi­tal­i­ty Group Ltd said, “We pay homage to the col­lab­o­ra­tive ef­forts of every­one in­volved in bring­ing the Ho­tel to the cusp of open­ing to guests from all over the world.

“Tow­ers is now poised to con­tribute fur­ther to the To­ba­go econ­o­my by adding high-qual­i­ty rooms, which we recog­nise is key to achiev­ing the crit­i­cal mass re­quired for To­bag­o­ni­ans to ben­e­fit from the on­go­ing pub­lic in­vest­ment on the is­land, such as the de­vel­op­ment of new sport­ing and cul­tur­al fa­cil­i­ties, as well as the air­port ex­pan­sion.

“Dur­ing con­struc­tion, over 200 lo­cal work­ers were em­ployed on a reg­u­lar ba­sis, and when open, we will di­rect­ly em­ploy ap­prox­i­mate­ly 60 work­ers.

“The ho­tel will es­tab­lish re­ward­ing re­la­tion­ships with the providers of food, trans­porta­tion, en­ter­tain­ment, and oth­er tourism-re­lat­ed ac­tiv­i­ties. Tow­ers is ex­treme­ly sat­is­fied to have ar­rived at this junc­ture, where the cul­mi­na­tion of the pur­suit of its strate­gic in­tent is in sight.

“We are con­fi­dent that the mu­tu­al­ly ben­e­fi­cial col­lab­o­ra­tion ex­pe­ri­enced thus far will con­tin­ue to be shared, by all. Now is the Time.”
