First Indigenous-Owned Hotel Lands in Thunder Bay | Calgary News

Thunder Bay’s airport is about to get its first hotel — a landmark 107-room Cambria Hotel, 90% First Nations-owned, set to open next fall. Developed by Rideout Bay with Wabigoon Lake Ojibway Nation leading the charge, it’s more than just a lodging spot: it’s a cultural and economic milestone designed to reflect Indigenous heritage and support regional growth. With construction starting this fall, the hotel will feature a restaurant, bar, gym, and meeting spaces — filling a critical gap as Thunder Bay’s tourism and airport activity surge. This project is part of a broader three-year partnership between the airport authority and Indigenous communities, aiming to embed Indigenous pride in every detail — from branding to design — ensuring visitors and locals alike feel welcomed and represented.
