One night away.
A night away from hustle and bustle of Christmas. It was a very comfortable stay. Staff were great, room and bed were cozy. No complaints. Pay for parking underground it’s worth it, otherwise parking is on the street and you walk.

Property was clean and quiet with a great location. Only issue was the room said two queen beds but the beds were doubles. Aside from the cramped sleeping accommodations the room and hotel were great.

Nice new modern hotel.
The staff was excellent, and made an effort to make our stay as enjoyable as possible. The TV remote is not at all intuitive, but the location is great with Monogram coffee and Save on Foods grocery stores right across the street. Lots of fast food eating choices too. DT Calgary is only 10 - 15 minutes away. We would have appreciated slippers though.
