The company that owns the new Charlottetown hotel is currently in creditor protection and the man behind the hotel, real estate mogul Richard Homburg, is in a battle with some of his companies.
Thursday at the provincial legislature, Opposition Leader Olive Crane said when the hotel first opened in August, all revenue coming into the hotel was then directed to a Nova Scotia company.
She said $215,000 of revenue should come back to P.E.I. to pay contractors who are still waiting to be paid for work they did on the hotel's construction.
"This is a serious issue that the court-appointed monitor pointed out: that the revenue from the Holman Grand was actually going off-Island to another Homburg company," said Crane. "In fact, the court-appointed monitor went so far as to say that money has to come back."
