What is the difference between an advertisement and a listing in the Accommodation or Campground Guides?

A listing in the Accommodation Guide reflects all the basic information gathered by the AHLA's Quality Assurance Team when they visit your property each year. All listings for the Official Accommodation and Campground Guides and www.travelalberta.com are created from information that our Quality Assurance Team gathers through the inspection process. Listings contain standardized information and follow the same format for all properties. For information about your listing, please email us at tourismmarketing@ahla.ca or talk to the Quality Assurance Advisor who inspected your property.

If you wish to provide more information about your property, an advertisement can contain almost any relevant information you choose including photos, graphics, and slogans. Display advertisements can really make your corporate identity, and your property's unique features, stand out. For information about advertising in the Accommodation Guide, please call 1-888-436-6112 (toll free).

Where can I find information about statistics and trends on the tourism industry?

For Canadian statistics, contact the Reference Centre at the Canadian Tourism Commission by telephone at (613) 954-3943 or by email: reference@ctc-cct.ca. For Alberta statistics, visit www.tourismtogether.com. For occupancy statistics, visit www.hvs.com

When will my property be inspected for the Accommodation or Campground Guides?

To ensure that our Quality Assurance Advisors see your property as any guest would, annual inspections are not announced.
