Nothing bad to say about this hotel. Efficient check in with friendly polite staff. Clean spacious room. We used the restaurant for an early morning breakfast and it was great. Re the comments about air conditioning noise perhaps look at picking a modern more expensive hotel!!! This was excellent value for money considering it's location

Location is nice.
Bedroom was very comfortable and clean. Lots of towels and the robes were lovely and fluffy. Food was excellent and portions were big.

Very nice hotel in downtown Calgary. The check in area is a little crazy as cars are coming and going from the underground parking garage. Rooms very clean. Lobby nice and peaceful oasis from the craziness outside in downtown Calgary. Walkable to everywhere important.
Great hotel and staff
