Best Places to Stay Near London town square in Calgary

First of all, affordable, hygienic, old hardware, free Wi-Fi and free parking, very close to the airport and the city centre. We are traveling by car, so we don't feel far away when we go to eat. Breakfast includes bananas and snake fruit, American muffins made by yourself, bread slices, cooked eggs, muffin cakes, donuts, milk tarts, oatmeal, coffee pot, orange juice. There is no breakfast for the Chinese. We stayed in a twin room, the bed was large, and the family with two children lived without problems, no extra bed needed.

This hotel is wrong on Google Maps and Uber cannot navigate properly. Breakfast is free and cost-effective, ten minutes walk from mills, five minutes costco.

I stayed at this hotel with a friend from out of town during stampede - so we paid a pretty penny for a hotel that clearly needed to iron out issues before opening. My friend and I have chosen to find the humor in it all, but what a journey. Concerns: From the start - they couldn't find our booking and then didn't honor the upgrade to a 2 bedroom room that we had booked. The sofabed was fine - but both nights we had to ask for duvets and pillows for it. - Our first room - the toilet literally was coming away from the drywall to the point we worried it would come right out of the wall, the shower didn't get more than lukewarm, and there was no fan or hooks in the bathroom. We asked for maintenance to come up the next morning -we left for the day and came back to no changes - went back to main desk who informed us that we were being moved - but this hadn't been communicated to us and there were issues finding us a new room. - Second room - dim lighting in bathroom, again issues with water and no fan, deadbolt on the main door did not work and the secondary lock was missing - so definitely safety concerns. In both rooms the cable went in and out consistently and there was no way to connect to a streaming site. In the hallways by the elevators the wallpaper was literally coming off from the corners. Pros: The staff were kind and helpful and the University District area is so lovely and fun. I think this hotel does have potential when things are fixed.

Only stayed here because we were starting a coach tour through the Rockies, arrived a day early and this was where the tour started. We had booked one night in a king room and the tour had booked us in a queen for the following night. We asked if we could stay in the same room for both nights but apparently there were no King's available for the 2nd night. We offered to downgrade our first night to a queen but again this appeared to be a problem. That was until Kaylee The Guest Services manager came along and sorted everything and actually upgraded us for both nights. Fabulous room (although if you are a light sleeper you need to be aware that the trams run alongside the hotel) Room was large, very comfortable bed, fridge, microwave and coffee maker. The whole hotel was clean and well maintained and 4 lifts meant never kept waiting long for a lift. There is a pool area which we did not take advantage of. Breakfast was good Canadian breakfast

We have an electric car and so when we travel if possible we try stay in hotels that have an electric vehicle charger on site. I always call the hotel directly to confirm as the websites are not always accurate. We called this hotel directly before booking onine and were advised by the woman on the phone (who had to put us on hold while she checked), that there was a car charger in the covered parking area. Great - the only warning was it was first come first served (which is how most are). When we arrived we asked where the vehicle charger was located and due to language issues the front desk person thought we were talking about a car cell phone charger... but another person came over and told us no EV charger on site. That was the whole reason for booking at this hotel and on a long weekend most places nearby were sold out. So we had to change our schedule to go and find a car charger instead of being able to do this at the hotel as planned. We would not have booked had we been given accurate information. And to pour salt in the wound, after we checked in the same person at the front desk who thought we wanted a cell phone charger called to ask if we were satisfied with the room, and I said room was fine but unhappy about no EV charger, he got confused and put us on hold and left us on hold... I eventually just hung up. Poor service. Hotel was clean. Our room was large but very spartan in furnishings and dated except new flooring. Bed was OK and no issue with noise. Shower head was long past its prime so not a great shower. Door into the room was backwards and swung to the open room and not to the wall but it had a door arm on it so you could not open all the way. Thiis made it hard to get luggage into the room as there was a table that limited access. Never tried the included breakfast. Why don't hotels offer the breakfast right until check out time? Why do they cut if off so early? I feel ripped off.

I booked via Bonvoy App. $700+ for two rooms one night. Online turns out the rooms are $121-$125/room/night! Empty minibar, no water, not a single biscuit. No complimentary toothbrush at reception (”..we ran out..”) so tried to buy one at their shop (”...we ran out..”). Tried to BUY a coffee. Coffee machine out of order. Had to buy a bottle of water for my 'luxury' room and finally reception agreed to comp me a bottle of water. I'm beyond further comment. I'm going to use other brands from now on. Ridiculous.

The beds were horribly soft and sunken in and misshapen. My wife felt like she was sleeping in a hammock. We had awful sleeps and came home with sore necks and backs. Very disappointed in the quality of beds considering what we paid and that this was our only holiday this year. The room was incredibly dusty and my sons allergies started acting up. I was charged $1828 for a beer in the club lounge because the attendant there mixed up our room number for the price of the beer. It of course was reversed but we were shocked to see this charge upon check out and don't feel this is acceptable.

We had the most amazing stay in late July. We booked a stay as our first stay before our birthday trip to Banff to explore Calgary. We used points the redeem for a night. Upon some email exchanges prior to the stay, I was given the option to pay to upgrade to club level which offers lounge access with breakfast and evening refreshments. Pam Doulson and Ava at the front desk are very sweet and kind. After learning it is for a birthday celebration, they kindly sent up a surprise birthday treat along with a nice upgrade to a 2 bedroom suite which is perfect for our party with 3 adults and 1 kid. The room is spotless and roomy with 2 washrooms and 3 tvs. Instead of exploring the city, we ended up just enjoying the hotel and spending time at the pool with the most amazing water slide according to the kids! The quality of the breakfast is fantastic and the club has a beautiful patio for pictures and relaxation. In conclusion, it is the best stay we had in recent years. So good that we are coming back again before leaving Calgary. Thank you Pam and Ava for making the stay so special and enjoyable for our 3 generations. We have stayed in higher end hotel like Shangrila/Fairmont in recent years but I would say I got the most responsive and friendly service here. I’d rather stay here than there. P.S. - the only think you should watch out for (if u have kids) is the glass door… my son was so excited that he ran into the glass and had a bump on his forehead…. I guess it shows how spotlessly clean the hotel is! 🤣

The hostel is a good base for exploring the local area is right next to a large grocery store, train station and only 10 minutes walk to the saddle dome. We especially loved the little library area upstairs - it was great to have somewhere quiet to chill in the evenings. The free breakfast is great also we really appreciated the tea, coffee, oil & seasonings provided by the hostel. In the rooms there was limited plug sockets meaning that some people had to leave their phones the opposite the room which isn't great for those setting early morning alarms etc. Also in the women showers there was no doors/locks only shower curtains which didn't feel the most secure for privacy.

We were on our way to Mexico and had to overnight in Calgary. Hotel had free shuttle and it was available all day on the hour. Our room was quiet and the staff excellent. Our stay was short but we were treated like our business was appreciated. They let us know our room was ready by email. It has an on site restuarant with other options near by.
