Best amenity in youth hockey travel? A shinny rink under the hotel! A great guest service concept to make families' experiences that much better!

Hilton Garden Inn in downtown Moncton, NB built a 60x20 mini-sticks rink in its underground garage! How cool is that AND helps avoid hallway shinny! It’s back for a second season, weekends are booked through June 2027, and parents even get their own “Parents Corner.”

Tournament weekends are about more than the rink. Families care about the whole trip: the hotel, what the kids do between games, and where parents can sit down. That’s the kind of detail other families need, and only people who’ve been there can share it. For a Hotel to think outside the 'rink' or in this case the hotel is a brilliant concept to make come to fruition and reap the benefits! Well done and serves as a great example for other properties!
