New Hotel Breaks Ground on Market Avenue in Grand Forks

Grand Forks is set to welcome a new hotel,the first full hotel in Grand Forks in quite a few years. It will sit on the site of the former Provincial Hotel on Market Ave in the downtown core.

Developed by MJI Contracting, the hotel is slated to open in Spring 2026 and will offer 32 rooms and a boardroom for up to 100 people with modern technoolgoy and amenities.

Mathew Isabell, of MJI Contracting, noted the hotel’s practical design: “It’s a place for everyday travellers—nothing super high-end—but with all the latest electronics and a clean, inviting atmosphere.” The hotel will not feature a restaurant or kitchen, but rather Isabell hopes to partner with local businesses to offer breakfast options, encouraging guests to explore and support downtown.

The location on Market Ave offers a prime spot for revitalizing the downtown area. In addition to guest accommodations, the hotel will include flexible meeting spaces for community events, holiday markets, and other events.

Construction is progressing as services are being installed, with foundation work expected to begin in the next few weeks. With support from The City, the new hotel aims to be a hub for visitors, fostering connections and boosting local business.
