For busy professionals, young singles and couples, who prefer the convenience of affordable downtown living, Antares Luxury Suites
is one of Winnipeg’s top spots in the rental, retail market.

“There’s a huge need for apartments in the downtown core and we offer competitive pricing,” says Ekeen Saad, Westcorp Properties’ leasing manager.

The pet-friendly rental suites are part of Westcorp’s two-phase conversion of the Place Louis Riel Suites Hotel, located at the corner of Smith Street and St. Mary Avenue.

With condo-quality finishes, the elegant suites include granite countertops, four appliances (fridge, stove, dishwasher and microwave), drapery and window treatments.

Residents are just steps away from Winnipeg’s growing sports, hospitality and entertainment district (SHED).

In nice weather, rental occupants can forget parking hassles and walk to the Winnipeg Art Gallery, City Place Shopping Centre, the University of Winnipeg, the Forks’ vibrant markets, and the MTS Sports and Entertainment Centre – home to the Winnipeg Jets.

In colder temperatures, they can stroll the neighbourhood through the Winnipeg Skywalk.

In this keyless building, residents will experience the best in state-of-the-art
technology once the final phase is completed by year’s end.

Occupants use their smartphones (Android and iPhones) to check on the availability of washers and dryers with a laundry app, connect with neighbours as they pick up a latte in the residents’ lounge, exercise at the gym, and take professional cooking classes in the chef’s kitchen.

Residents also have access to a well-appointed business centre with complementary iMacs, PCs and Wi-Fi. Many of these services will be accessible around the clock.

Westcorp Properties’ leasing team, maintenance staff and concierge work hard to create a first-class experience for the Antares Luxury Suites’ community, Saad says.

“Our customer service is the best. We offer the personal touch. It’s part of the Westcorp values. We go above and beyond what’s expected.”

Established in 1980, Westcorp Properties is committed to developing great spaces.

Antares Luxury Suites range from 425 to 812 square feet in a 25-storey, 315-unit building. Studios rent from $870 a month; for $1,595, corner penthouse suites include walk-in closets, heated bathroom floors and
two-person showers.
