Fairmont The Queen Elizabeth Hotel downtown Montreal will be closed this holiday season over a labour dispute.
It will shut its doors Dec. 21 and it’s unclear when it will reopen.
“This decision was made due to the ongoing labour dispute that prevents the establishment from providing its clientele with the exceptional level of service for which it is renowned,” said the hotel in a news release.
Hotel employees all over Quebec took on strike mandates over the summer to pressure employers to sign a new collective agreement that would include salary increases and an end to the use of staffing agencies. In August, some 2,500 employees from 22 different hotels walked off the job.
