“Very nice stay!”

Nov 02, 2025chrisv94

The Fairmont in Calgary was beautiful and well run. The room was very spacious and very well appointed and the location was excellent. We were able to walk to the Saddledome for the hockey game and there were plenty of restaurants within walking distance as well. We were very pleased all around and would not hesitate to return to the Farmont Palliser!

“A perfect stay!”

From the moment you walk in the door of the Palliser, you feel the difference. It is a regal, well maintained building with a staff who are ready to assist. We were booked on the Fairmont Gold level which was wonderful. The staff was more than friendly. They were kind. All of the staff, from the housekeepers to the front desk/concierge. We appreciated how excited they all were to share their city and make recommendations of what to see and do. We truly felt that they cared. The breakfast and evening canapé service was always tasty. Of course, the room was clean, comfortable and beautiful. I know old buildings can get a bad rap for, well, being old. When an old building is cared for like the Palliser, it feels charming to us.

“Awesome service”
