Liked that underground parking was available. Did not have to go outside into a cold snow covered car. All staff were friendly, courteous and helpful, some went out of their way to open doors and have offered to carry packages. Cleaning staff were very friendly, and appreciated the fact that they were very helpful in supply issues. I would rate a 5 star on this visit.

Although this was a nice hotel I wouldn't spend any extra money on the suite again. When I asked if we were in the room I booked I was told their suites are "open concept" Also the bath products are heavily scented in case is a concern for someone. The hotel was quiet clean and the breakfast was nice. The location provided easy access to Calgary downtown, the Zoo and Chinook Centre.

Good Couples Vacation

It was overall really good. The front desk staff was all very friendly and helpful, they accommodated an early check in for my fiancée and I since we arrived in town a couple hours earlier than expected. The jacuzzi suite was comfortable and relaxing, and was a nice added bonus.
