I love this hotel and have been coming here at least once or twice a year since I've lived in Calgary. The only reason why I didn't rate this stay 5-stars is because the lights inside the hot tub were broken when I was there recently. It seems like a trivial thing, but they have such an incredible hot tub... it was a shame that it wasn't lit properly, it made it seem a bit dingy and uninviting this time around. Everything else was great.

We paid to have 2 premier rooms and when we checked in we were given 1 premium and 1 not. They kept saying we booked through a third party. After some reluctance they fixed it. Everything about the property is stunning and I love staying here.

Such a perfect place for us! Our suite had everything we needed. We enjoyed having the kitchenette so we could eat our breakfasts early before starting our day. We loved getting exercise walking into town. Our dips in the hot tub most evenings were a great day to unwind. Wonderful staff!
