Trip Type: Romance Review 1 of 17Happy Honeymoon
Great Hotel and Great Location. Keith Urban and Nicole were staying there at the same time, so can't be too bad, Eh?

Trip Type: Family Review 2 of 17Nice Hotel but Not Quite Luxurious
This hotel did a nice job with customer service and the public areas were very nice. Our room had nice touches but clearly was past due for some general maintenance. Little things like chunks of wood torn out of the door frame in the bathroom and pictures that weren't centered in the matte in the frame just didn't make it feel quite like the luxury we had hoped for. Stepping outside our room made the experience much better. Our kids enjoyed the pool and hot tub. It was definitely worth what we paid through Hotels.com, but wouldn't recommend paying anywhere near rack rate for our room.

Trip Type: Overnight Stay Review 3 of 17Old World Elegance in the New West
The Fairmont Pallister exudes old world charm in the capital of the New West. The sumptuous lobby and the elegant rooms speak to a high level of service and pride in the property by the staff. Friendly, courteous staff in the heart of downtown Calgary with excellent access to resturaunts and the Calgary Tower.

Steve met us as we pulled up on our motorcycle and was most helpful finding a place to park it as well as roads to travel in Canada. Great Guy. Hope this gets to him

Trip Type: Business Review 6 of 17Recommend Renovated Rooms
Old world property centrally located in downtown Calgary with a short hop, skip and a jump from wonderful restaurants and shopping. As with all old properties some rooms are better than others. Highly recommend renovated rooms on the 3rd floor. Excellent amenities and styling.

Trip Type: Overnight Stay Review 7 of 17Great Weekend Getaway!
My daughter and I have been staying in Edmonton during the week for cancer treatments, but decided to take a weekend trip to Calgary. I found this glamorous hotel on hotels.com and couldn't believe the price. It turned out better than we ever imagined!

Trip Type: Family Review 13 of 17Renovated rooms very nice, others somewhat dated
Overall a good value, I would stay here again for what I paid. Feels like a grand old hotel, marble lobby with high ceilings etc. I stayed for 2 nights within a week in different rooms. In one case I stayed in an unrenovated room which was a little dated - red carped that looked a little worn and ugly curtains. But it was very clean and comfortable. The second night I stayed in one of the renovated rooms (apparently only the 2nd & 3rd floor have been renovated). This was more updated - flat panel TV, new carpet, nicer shower. I liked this room more. Not a lot going on in downtown Calgary, so you'll be disappointed if you expect to be in the center of the action being downtown.

Trip Type: Special Event Review 15 of 17Elegant and Top Notch
The first night I stayed in a room directly above some railroad tracks. With the trains going all hours of the night and day, I didn't sleep well at all. When I explained my problem to management, they were quick to move me to another room. The second room was unbelievably wonderful and quiet. The rest of my stay was outstanding.
