Checkin & out was handled smoothly & efficiently by friendly front desk staff, who could also answer questions about the area & the city at large. Rooms are spacious & clean with good beds. Parking is free & you... More

We stopped over in Calgary on our way to Seattle and checked in at the Best Western Suites Downtown. I always stay at Hiltons and such, however when tried booking, the only thing I could find is this hotel through Expedia. I was very hesitant, however no choice. When we arrived at the hotel we were greeted by a maintenance... More

When I think of a hotel with the word 'suites' in the title, I think of a compromise between hotel facilities such as bar/restaurant/coffee shop etc... and the quality, size and finish of the suites (or rooms). This is supposed to be a 'suites' hotel, but it does not compete well with more modern developments in the region. The room... More

We booked this hotel more than 1 month in advance for a busy weekend in Calgary. We paid online via credit card and got an amazing rate. We checked in after 10pm, and although we could not fit in the underground parking or the above ground parking lot, we were able to park on the side of the building off... More

I stayed here for a week. The staff was terrific. The room had been newly renovated. It was spacious and clean. The kitchen was so great, especially with the grocery store so close. I also appreciated the excellent laundry room in the building. More

On a road trip from Helena to Vancouver, booked in at the Best Western Hotel. It is located near 17th avenue in the hub of pub and restaurant district. We went to Morgans that night for a quick drink as we needed to leave early. The staff at the hotel were very courteous and knowledgeable about the area and surroundings.... More

Jacuzzi suite on the top floor was great. The kitchen was a bonus. So nice to have a fridge to keep our beverages cool. Breakfast had a great variety and there was always lots. The boiler room was a bit rumbly but we didn't notice it too much. Got a great nights sleep and had lots of fun in the... More

We stayed in a jacuzzi suite on the top floor, and it definitely met expectations. This was the most inexpensive jacuzzi room I've ever stayed in (approx $200 after tax), and was still worth the money. The suite is HUGE and includes a separate kitchen and sitting area, and a jacuzzi tub in the bedroom, feet away from the bed.... More
