Top Arts Desire Hotel Reviews

Sandman Signature Calgary Downtown Hotel

8/10 Good

"Staff and room were great. No issues with finding the location."

GLOBALSTAY. Downtown Calgary Apartments

8/10 Good

"Room is awesome. Great view and everything you need in a condo and more. The issue is with the checkin and checkout procedure. It was not smooth for us. The access code given did not work, help line, no answer. Needed the security guards help to locate the host. Once we were buzzed in the elevator was not activated as promised in the check-in procedure. Took 3 try’s before finally getting to the room. For Checkout you need to get your car out of the garage first and park on the street before running back up to your room to drop off the FOB. As you do not have access to the garage without the FOB. I don’t blame the host at all. lots of other people were experiencing the same thing while we were there, seems like a building access issue that needs work."

Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Calgary by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Overall great experience"

Courtyard By Marriott Calgary Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"I had such a pleasant stay, every single staff member was so friendly & helpful. Some of the staff like Yesenia & Gemma stand out, they were so smiley & caring. I had dinner dropped off & Gemma offered utensils since they were not included. As I walked towards the elevator another staff member was super helpful by keeping the elevator door open & pressing my floor number after asking since my hands were full. I had breakfast twice during my stay & the staff were amazingly accommodating the first day since I was running late. On my second day it was my birthday & I got a special treat! My room was kept clean on the days that I requested service. Overall it was a great stay & I will most definitely book again my next time in Calgary."
