Bow River Pathway, Calgary hotel rooms at the Independent

"We booked 2 suites for a family trip. The rooms were disgusting, and in extreme disrepair. Holes in walls crudely patched and not painted. Broken furnishing and very stained seating areas. Neither steam shower worked and toilet paper was not even provided in one of the rooms. The pool was out of order and not disclosed on website. Heavy chemical air freshener used to try and hide smell. It’s an old hotel so wasn’t expecting top quality but we only planned to sleep and let kids have a swim. We left within 10 mins and will never return "

"Love this hotel!"

"Clean room, excellent amenities and great place to lay your head before your early morning flight."

"There are not enough parking spots for residents and customers. "

"I was disappointed the pool and hot tub closed at 10pm. It would be great if it were open later to accommodate later arriving flights."

"The inside of the lobby is nicely updated. Small rooms with 2 queens (would be a REAL stretch for a family of 4, especially with luggage), but the worst part is the temperature control. For those that like a cool room, it was impossible to get close to its minimal setting of 18°C, therefore making for a terrible and uncomfortable sleep."

"Met our needs for an overnight stay and reasonably priced"

"Big room ! Clean"

"Room was clean and roomy. Any staff we talked with were great."
