Econo Lodge Inn & Suites University

Staying at the Econo Lodge Inn & Suites University in Calgary was a great experience overall. The location is super convenient—just a short ride to downtown, and there are plenty of restaurants and convenience stores nearby. The heating system works perfectly, so even on chilly nights, the room stayed warm and cozy. The bed was spacious and incredibly comfortable, making for a restful night's sleep. Free parking is a huge plus for travelers driving their own cars—no stress about finding a spot. I especially appreciated having a bathtub in the bathroom; it made for a relaxing evening soak. Breakfast was available but nothing fancy—basic options with average taste, though it’s always nice to have something to start the day. What really stood out was the front desk staff—they were incredibly attentive and patient when helping me resolve an issue with a pre-authorized charge. Their professionalism made all the difference.

The Westin Calgary

Staying at The Westin Calgary was a great choice during my visit to Calgary—mainly because of the trust I have in the Marriott brand. The room was slightly compact, but perfect for solo travelers. What really stood out was the breakfast: both the buffet and à la carte options were delicious and well-prepared. On my last morning, I had an early flight, and the kitchen staff went the extra mile by packing a breakfast meal for me—such a thoughtful touch! The front desk team was also incredibly helpful and patient, taking time to explain each dish with genuine care. One minor note: the bathroom door doubles as the closet door, so when closed, it reveals part of the wardrobe inside—slightly awkward design-wise, but not a dealbreaker. Location-wise, it’s fantastic—walking distance to Chinatown and major shopping areas, just a short stroll from the light rail station, and only about 20 minutes by Uber to the airport (which makes sense given Calgary’s size). Overall, excellent service, convenient location, and top-notch amenities. I’d definitely book here again next time I’m in Calgary.
