Q&A with the Owner
Q – You have been in the hotel industry for 20 years and you have previously owned 2 hotels. Please comment on the difference in operating costs you see as a result of ICF construction.
A – I am seeing approximately 20% savings in operating costs.
Q – Would you recommend ICF construction for others in the hospitality industry?
A – I would most definitely recommend ICF construction for others, customer satisfaction is much greater and my ROI is better. In fact I have already influenced two other hotel owners to go with ICF.
Q – What were the major benefits of ICF construction that made you choose it over conventional construction?
A – The major benefits were the reduced operating costs, followed by the quiet and comfortable stay for customers since I am so close to a major highway.
Benefits of ICF use in the Hospitality Sector
- Considerably reduced operating costs

- Quicker construction time and less labor required
- Quiet and comfortable stay for guests
- Improved environmental performance
This is a 3 storey hotel with 59 rooms, conference rooms and an indoor pool. We have the same operating costs as the motel next door which is half the size, without a pool.
