6/10 Good

Great bang for your buck!
The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The breakfast options were good. Rooms were clean. Hotel a bit outdated, but was great for the price. We got locked out of our room three times as the key wasn’t working. Location was also great. A little detail we loved was that the hand soap was liquid!

It was. But not enough towels. Especially when we tried to use the jacuzzi tub. Also, something mechanical was loud enough that then it turned on it woke us up

Downtown Stay
This was an overnight stay to attend an NHL game. Location and access to the arena was close and smooth. Free covered parking and a nice choice of breakfast. The staff are all friendly and welcoming. Our room was clean and comfortable. I would consider this hotel for future overnight visits.

Door handle is loose and had to fiddle with the card to get the door opened. Housekeeping left the TV on which led me to believe someone was in the room. TV by bed was glitching out

A great place to stay.
Well located, very close to the tram stop, this is a great place to stay. The hotel is close to places to eat and shop. The staff are very friendly and helpful and actually upgraded my room to a suite. The suite was very comfortable and well equipped. Breakfast was included in the rate which was more affordable than other hotels.
Aziz, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The value that Holiday Inn offers with free parking and breakfast makes it a great choice for travelers. The location is more central so it’s a bit smaller than other Holiday Inn locations. But all in all, it’s great.
Muhammad, 1-night trip

Had an amazing stay.
Claire Joy, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The room is clean, quiet and good enough to watch a bit of mindless tv, fall sleep, have a continental-ish breakfast next morning and get your day going.

Pat on the back
Booked for daughters 20th for her and a friend so they didn’t have to worry about taxi or anything close to where they where going couple blocks. Night turned wrong from club and someone drove to find them. Security and staff at hotel didn’t let individual up to see but followed all the right direction and protocols and followed up.

For our downtown Calgary appointment, this looks to be a convenient hotel to overnight in. Plenty of restaurants within walking distance. Underground parking included. Room is pleasant and spacious.
