City Centre Riverpath: B&B with a great view
  • Tip Rating:
  • Satisfaction:
  • Situated on walking distance from downtown Calgary, just an ideal base to explore the capital of Alberta.

    A new modern home with all kinds of facilities.

    Rooms: different types, try to stay in the so called Southwest or Northwest Room, a little bit more expensive, but with a splendid view. (We had the smaller East Room)
    Breakfast: self service, but is no problem

    Unique Qualities: The wonderful view from the deck on downtown Calgary !!!!

    Travelodge Calgary International Airport: ... outdated
  • Tip Rating: [Not enough ratings yet]
  • Satisfaction:
  • After a long flight from the Netherlands we didn't like to phone the hotel for the three shuttle bus and decided to go by a regular taxi. Just for a couple of km's we had to pay CAD 25,-

    The hotel looked (a little bit) outdated, didn't smell too fresh and the rooms were rather small.
    Located outside the city you 'only' can walk around and also in the hotel is not much to do. You may understand we were not very satisfied.

    You may understand we were not very satisfied.

    Breakfast (buffet) was good, but rather expensive.
    We took the free shuttle bus back to the airport to pick up our rental car.
    Be aware, they do have just one shuttle bus and it may take some time before you can leave to the airport.

     Jaap, a good first visit to my home town, hope you enjoy my tips, but yes the speed skating oval is a busy place, practices and competitions. Great legacy.
