Guest Reviews
- Manuel (10/5): - Everything was perfect
- Akaash (8/5): - The experience was 5 stars but that had nothing to do with the hotel, staff was extremely irritated whenever we called them up as if doing their jobs was an inconvenience. However I’ll still rate it 4 stars because the most beautiful woman on the planet made the experience.
- Xinyu (10/5): - Hard to park. No free parking lot
- Paula (10/5): - Great place

- Dana (10/5): - New clean and neat
- Nicola (10/5): - Stayed here for one night before heading into the Rockies. On street parking was available opposite the hotel and was free at the weekend. Check in was friendly and easy. Our room was clean, comfortable and well appointed. Breakfast was great, we went early and it wasn’t too busy.
- Barbara (10/5): - Clean and welcoming hotel within walking distance of Kensington. Friendly and helpful staff. Great fitness centre. Good restaurant on site. Comfortable beds. Reasonable price. Highly recommend.
- Dipesh (10/5): - Excellent rooms with kitchen facility. Good location in downtown

- Timothy (6/5): - Clean property, disconnected location.
- Kent (10/5): - Excellent Staff!!

- Apolina Sabiti (10/5): - Element was an amazing hotel with clean room and a great breakfast. Parking wasn’t easy to find but everything else was great.
- Julliene (6/5): - It
- Vitalii (10/5): - H
- Ram (10/5): - 1000000/10
- Maria (2/5): - Front desk staff not friendly, I wasn't even greeted when I walked in. I inquired about parking, staff told me she "thought" it was full and just told me to wait for the valet to confirm and ask when I asked about options. Valet, Eman, super friendly and polite. He saved the check in experience, was the only positive point. I was really thrown off with the parking issue, but indeed dealing with someone with the right attitude makes all the difference.
- Jeremy (10/5): - Great location and value.
- SOMAYEH (6/5): - “Everything was good, but we thought the prices were in Canadian dollars. Expedia showed them in USD, which misled us.
- Ron (10/5): - Was great service
- sherry (10/5): - Loved everything, only challlenge was parking unless you get the valet parking.
- Jen (10/5): - It was a great hotel. We had fun at the water park, and everyone was gracious who worked there.
- Lieu (10/5): - Room so clean and good service
- Rahim (10/5): - We stayed at this hotel for two nights and had a wonderful experience. A special thanks to **Tryphine at reception**—she was incredibly **helpful, kind, and professional**, making our check-in process very smooth. Her warm welcome set the tone for our entire stay. The room was clean and comfortable, and we thoroughly enjoyed our time here. Would definitely recommend this hotel to others and hope to return in the future!
- Maria Luz (10/5): - Tryphine was soooo amazing! She upgraded our room! I love this hotel, so chic, free breakfast. It's also new, which is my reason to choose it. So clean and modern. I'd stay here again, no doubt.
- Anne (8/5): - lovely breakfast buffet; nice kitchen area in room. Negative no luggage rack.
- Julia (10/5): - We had an absolutely wonderful family experience at this clean & modern hotel. The complimentary breakfast was superb, served in the rooftop restaurant. Our room comfortably accommodated our family of 5 with a lovely kitchenette. The staff was courteous and helpful in every area of hospitality from the front desk to housekeeping to valet and beyond!
- Melanie (8/5): - The ad says valet parking is $21 a day but the hotel charged $35. Other than that it was lovely.
- Andreas (8/5): - Das Hotel und die Zimmer sind schön gestaltet und sauber. Das Personal ist freundlich und zuvorkommend. Auch die Lage ist für einen Besuch von Calgary gut. Die Frühstückszeiten (bis 9:00am) haben wir (Familie mit Kindern) als nicht sehr komfortabel empfunden. Leider gab es auch keine Parkmöglichkeiten direkt an der Unterkunft (nur kostenpflichtiges Valet Parking wurde durch das Hotel angeboten).
- Tonya (10/5): - There was a bit of a hiccup when we arrived and they didn’t have the room that we ordered. It was resolved quickly and we were upgraded. They were very apologetic and did anything to make us feel welcome.
- Rosaline (8/5): - Pls add more options for breakfast. Not only eggs. It feels tiring to eat every morning.
- Azhar (10/5): - Very clean
- Owen (10/5): - Amazing service from the staff. Very clean and organized. Would definitely comeback again.
- P Agnes (8/5): - I appreciate the breakfast option and the fast and secure elevators. Staff were extremely helpful and friendly. I had issues with housekeeping—not the staff but the scheduling. I was there for 16 nights. (1) I had to ask for replenishment of tissues. (2) I had to ask for changing of bed linen. It was changed one time 7 days after my arrival and then nothing. I finally asked. 7 days was also too long an interval.
- Linda (10/5): Modern comfort in downtown Calgary - I was able to check-in early, which is always a bonus, and was upgraded to a room with a "view". Admittedly, the view wasn't great (I could see some trees in between two apartment buildings), but the room was spacious, comfortable, clean. I would have liked a place by the door to hang my jacket and purse, but otherwise, I didn't lack for anything. The staff was very friendly and helpful and the location makes access to various parts of the city easy either by walking or (nearby) public transportation. The one criticism has nothing to do with the hotel. The figure hotels.com quoted did not include the following taxes, Alberta Tourism Levy and Destination Marketing Fund (which is a DAILY charge), so I paid almost $40CAD more than the quoted price.
- G (10/5): - Brand new and spacious
- Wendy (6/5): - Valet parking only which is not accessible 24/7. No access to car overnight. Valet attendant went over and above to find solution to issue. Called ahead of time to determine parking as I was expecting to check in to hotel in late evening. I was told valet only but failed to let you know car is inaccessible after 11 pm Several issues with key access in elevators. Required room card to be reprogrammed as card failed when we were on top floor which thankfully another guest was able to help with The card failure seemed to be specific to elevator. The hotel itself is clean and fresh. We paid over 500 for the hotel and the stay unfortunately did not meet expectations
- Dawn (10/5): - Love the rooftop continental breakfast area
- Catherine (8/5): - There was no onsite parking and valet cost $50. It made it either inconvenient or expensive to drive there.
- Molly (10/5): - I really enjoyed my two-night stay — the room itself was great and I was super happy with it. The only thing I noticed was that no one came in to tidy up during my stay. I was out all day both nights and came back to the room expecting it might be refreshed, but it wasn’t. Not sure if it was just due to staffing or how busy it was during Stampede weekend, but that was the only thing that stood out. Luckily it was just me, so I had enough towels and could’ve called if I needed more — it wasn’t a big deal, just something I expected. Also, I loved the free breakfast — it was actually really good. But I honestly felt kind of uncomfortable while I was eating. It just felt like staff were hovering or keeping watch, and it threw off the vibe. There were a few standing in the corners or just kind of placed around the room like security, and it made it hard to actually relax and enjoy my food. I get they’re probably just doing their job, but it did feel a bit much.
- yukim (8/5): - 部屋が広く、ベッドも大きくて快適に過ごしました。
- Daniel (8/5): - Decor was on point. Kitchenette room with a family was clutch. Great walkability. Floor by the elevators on 12 floor is luxury vinyl tile and is bowed creaks should likely be fixed. Seems to be close to a fire station so bring ear plugs just in case. We were there around Canada Day and Stampede so may not have been usual noise level.
- Brian (10/5): Good stay - All good except the room needed fold up table to open suitcases .. We had to use the floor.
- Rowena (8/5): - The room was very spacious, clean and new. Design was very modern. The restaurant/rooftop bar has a nice view overlooking the Bow River.
- Mark (6/5): Not ready, but might be good when it is - The good first: the staff were great and the rooms were large for a city centre location. The hotel opened the day we checked in and it just wasn't ready. I think they had rushed to open before the Stampede and a major convention. The air conditioning broke down on day two of our stay and didn't come back until day six. The front desk were very apologetic but had no idea when it might be fixed. Fortunately, it was mostly temperate We didn't receive housekeeping even once during a seven-day stay. When I asked for the garbage to be removed, it was taken away promptly. It didn't bother me, so I reported it but didn't make a fuss. The pans in the kitchenette didn't work on the induction job they'd installed, but once they figured out what was wrong, new pans came fast. The valet parking system broke down on day two because the front desk rarely answered the phone during the day. This meant you had to come down to request the car and then wait 15 minutes for it. $50 a day plus tips is also very expensive for a city such as Calgary. Fortunately, there's municipal parking across the street that costs $18 a day. There are design flaws too. This is meant to be a long-stay hotel, but there's very little hanging space and one of the three tiny drawers is taken up by the Book of Mormon (this is a Marriott) and the Bible The gym is good for a hotel but the equipment choices seem a bit random. Overall, the hiring decisions were really good; the rest needs work
- Audie Lerma (10/5): A great hotel - A great hotel, clean, fresh and the staff had been very helpful.
- Christopher (10/5): Brand new gem in Downtown Calgary. - The hotel only opened on the day I arrived. I was the first guest to stay in my room, so it was spotless and first-class. Good facilities, great location and lovely staff members. Sure, there were a few teething problems, but they were resolved quickly. I didn't have breakfast, so I cannot comment on that. Valet parking was okay, but a bit slow at peak hours, so we parked over the road easily.
