Mississauga, ON – October 21, 2014 – After compiling votes all summer, the winner of the 2014 Cintas Canada’s Best Contest is the Shaw Club Hotel & Spa in Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario. With its chic design and clear-to-clouded glass door technology, this ladies’ loo is more than just a clean washroom. |

“Each year we look for establishments who understand the importance of first impressions and the impact a clean and well stocked restroom has on their business, and this year’s winner clearly demonstrates this critical message,” says Cintas’ Senior Marketing Manager, Leslie Molin. |
|
From the advanced technology, to the glass infinity sink and feminine décor, the Shaw Club Hotel & Spa goes above and beyond to provide their customers with a one-of-a-kind experience. “We are thrilled to present this award and this year’s prize of $2,500 in Cintas services to such a deserving establishment,” said Molin. “This prize will provide the Shaw Club with the tools and services they need to maintain their facility at an award-winning level.” |

Designed to feel more like a private club than a hotel, the classy sophistication found in the guest rooms at Shaw Club Hotel & Spa extends to all aspects of the venue, including the ladies’ washroom. |
|
“We believe it is important to put care and design into a washroom so that it is not only functional, but aesthetically pleasing, and we often see the impact it has on the guests, as we hear women raving about the washroom to other female customers. They love the serene environment and elegant décor,” says the Shaw Club Hotel & Spa’s Sales and Marketing Manager, Jason Baumgartner. |
