Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

On checking in we received a complimentary upgrade. Lovely start to our stay! The room had a kit here, separate sitting area and bedroom with a bath and shower. Spacious with great views of the city. Location great. Walking distance to shopping and entertainment precinct on 17th st. Coin operated laundry facilities on site which really helped us. Hot buffet breakfast included and free wi fi. Would definitely stay here again

This hotel looks to have been recently refurbished and has been done very well. It is very clean and functional, the rooms were spacious and well designed. The complimentary breakfast was taken in a clean area that provided good options. All the staff were friendly and efficient.

Staff was very good. They upgraded us to a larger room because the first room key didn't work. We enjoyed the room and all of the aminities. The location was good and the internet was fast. The breakfast was as good as can be expected for the kind of breakfast.

Being BW Rewards people, we were very pleased with the upgrade we received to the 2 bdrm suite since it was 3 adults sharing. The person we had at check-in was polite but more standoffish while the person at check out was polite and friendly. Our accommodation was acceptable with comfortable beds. The second bedroom could have used a TV. The bathroom could be enlarged as it really only accommodated 1 person at a time. The breakfast items were adequate. This hotel is one we would recommend if you wish to be downtown and is close to many eateries, cafes, and tourist attractions.

This downtown core BW is consistently top drawer. While a hotel of a certain age, it is well cared for and constantly being updated. Our room had marble counter tops through out. I appreciated the addition of a range hood fan in the room for those of us whom actually cook in the room. The room had been completely redecorated. Absolutely no surprises as usual. Check out the Japanese restaurant down the block ... one of the best in Calgary. Go left as you go out the front door. Walk halfway down the next block. It is not all raw fish. Lovely noodle dishes, miso soup, bento boxes (box B is our favorite) but we have not found anything we don't like. Having said that, we have not tried any of the sushi.

Stayed here the May long weekend for my son's bball tournament. The free parking is a big perk. Room was clean if a bit oddly laid out but more importantly the bed was comfortable. Free breakfast was just ok -- pretty sure the eggs were powdered or if they weren't they were awful but the rest was fine. Is good value.

Hamilton, Canada26 contributions30 helpful votes
Location is good for eating at the close trendier restaurants, and new GoodLife Fitness only a block away was very convenient. My room was clean, comfortable and the small kitchenette a bonus. However, the location also poses a problem in the evening for people wandering in the parking lot, drunk and loud. I checked out as scheduled at 5:30 am, and was surprised to see a large security guard at the entrance (for what I assume was making sure no unauthorized guests came in) No issues, and my 2 night stay was fine.

Older remodelled apartments, can't go on the balconies in the suites. Great soft comforters and pillows. Older rooms nice new carpets. Good variety in the free breakfast. Trying to park underground was a challenge key card did not work and I had to backup the ramp in an SUV. Staff at front desk were friendly.

Vancouver, Canada28 contributions12 helpful votes
First off the staff were great as was the location with free parking. However there were things that made it less than I expect from a Best Western. The facility needs some serious upgrading. Our windows and balcony doors were not clean, and bolted shut. The air conditioner loud and uncontrollable. We were upgraded to a two bedroom that had only a small couch for sitting on, the tv so far away you had to use a dining room or office chair to get close enough to see the tv. I was disappointed in the fact that the breakfast facilities used disposable cutlery, plates cups etc-not acceptable in this day and age.

Dear LParis2014, Thank you for taking the time to provide a candid review of your most recent stay at our hotel! We are happy to learn that you found our staff friendly as well as liked our location with our free parking offering. I am disappointed to learn that you did not enjoy the free upgrade to the two bedroom suite. We are addressing these in our upcoming fall complete suite renovations. With regards to the air conditioners, all three in the suite, have separate controls that allows you to turn them up, down or even shut off. As for breakfast, we do offer both China , cutlery along with disposable plates for take out. We hope that you will choose us on your next trip and see our new renovations. Best regards, George Dahbour General Manager
