The eco-friendly hotel sets itself apart from the
rest through theLakeviewManagementUniver-
sity where staff have the opportunity to enroll
in online courses completed at their own pace,
and a tactic used to better train employees and
make them passionate about the brand. “Our
staff is able to get the sense they are part of
the Lakeview family and contributing in our
success rate. If you treat your staff right, they
treat your guests’ right, and a healthy circle is
created,” says Keith. As well, the company is a
happy participant in the “Clean the World” ini-
tiative, where they recycle their shampoo and
soap and donate them to orphanages in third
world countries. “I had the amazing opportu-
nity to go to Guatemala and hand out our re-
cycled products to the slums. We’re very pas-
sionate about that partnership.”
After five decades of service, the development
of 20 hotels and the management of 28 prop-
erties, Lakeview Hotels & Resorts wishes to
continue expanding across the nation and are
looking to build on their commercial develop-
ment. “Canada is our community and our fo-
cus will be continuing to expand the Lakeview
brand,” closes Keith. “Our passion about the
service industry and providing service for our
guests will be our backbone. We’re a company
that is open for business in all aspects of the
real estate sector in Canada.”
