Our room was spacious with both a desk and sofa. The hotel facilities are very good and hotel staff helpful. Breakfast is more than adequate. For a central city hotel, this provided good value for money. More

It was really cold when we arrived, so Ric's Grill being 1/2 a block away made the location fantastic. The hotel advertises Free breakfast - Free parking - Free Wifi. All were good. (Never stay in a hotel without free wifi.) Underground parking required that your vehicle is less than 6ft 1" tall. But you need to check-in first, to... More

Stayed hear the first week of Jan/12 for the World Juniors Hockey tournament. The location is great as there's plenty of conveniences within walking distance. Renovations started out of the blue on the second day, was NOT happy about that as it was very loud and no one was given any notice; lots of unhappy people!! The rooms are average... More

Prime location for anyone wanting to explore the downtown core of Calgary. Everything within walking distance making it the perfect choice. This is my second stay in this location, and the room was just as lovely as before. All amenities are up-to-date, rooms kept in prime condition and clean. No matter where you are, you have a view of the... More

This is the second time I have stayed here. Once again I was pleasantly surprised by the excellent condition of the room. It was in great shape and very up to date. Since my last trip they have also completed the elevator upgrade. Breakfast was good and with the free underground parking I had a worry free sleep. It is... More

Excellent: location, friendly and helpful staff, parking space - basement parking is very safe. Very good: accomodations, ammenities, cleanness of room and common areas. Internet and printer worked fine. They have a small safe we could use to keep documents and money. Good: breakfast has some variety, from eggs to yogurt, pancakes, cereal, fruits. Small but enough space for guests,... More

The room came with all the amenities (fridge, microwave, hot plate, sink, desk, large closet, couch). The bathroom was a good size. The breakfast was very... More

The hotel has Good Service. Overall better Environment and cleanness. The more important thing is good location. and most important thing is best price with all of these. I use Best Westerns occassionally and generally found them good. However, my stay was great from the friendly greeting on late night entry to an excellent room with all the basic amenities.... More

Booked the BW via Priceline, for $77 dollars, an incredible value considering you are in the belt line of Calgary, you get free parking and wifi, a renovated room with a flat screen, jetted tub AND a kitchenette. Plus a morning breakie n/c for good measure. Although this hotel is a few decades old, there is a sense of ongoing... More

Dear freespirit246, Thank you for taking the time to submit a review of our hotel. Unfortunately, your stay with us coincided with a Shaw Cable upgrade from analogue to digital and this temporarily affected service. Also, we are in the process of replacing all of our television sets to high definition televisions to better serve our clients. Regards, More
