I made a last minute booking at the Element Edmonton West due to unexpected change in our travel itinerary, as Icefields Parkway was shut down for half a day, and we couldn't get to Banff without a long driving day. I've stayed at an Element before, so sort of knew what to expect. Upon arrival, I remember the distinctive smell that the Element uses, which I quite like. Check-in was fast, easy and friendly. Our room was quite large and comfortable fit 5 people. Like all other elements, it's had nice, simple, European look that I like. Bed were very soft and comfortable. Also took advantage of the small kitchen to reheat some dinner leftovers. Our room did face the highway, so we certainly did hear the road noise - not the worst road noise I've experienced, but certainly noticeable. I measured the WiFi speed to be around 30Mbps, which is pretty good. Breakfast is very simple here. Regular toast, one meat (sausage), one potato dish (hash browns), a couple of cereal options, oatmeal, yogurt, whole fruit, and eggs-prepared-to-order. To drink, you can choose from coffee, tea, orange juice, apple juice or water. Building is connected to the Four Points, so I'm not sure if there are any shared facilities, as I didn't use any. Plenty of parking during our stay. Overall, the hotel met my expectations for an Element. Nice, modern, and clean. Service was fine, only wished there was variety for breakfast, but still a good stay.
Excellent
