BEST WESTERN PLUS SUITES DOWNTOWN CALGARY, Calgary

The hotel sits on the Beltline, a lively neighbourhood with easy access to Calgary's core. 17th Avenue, known for its dining and nightlife, is a 10-minute walk away. The Saddledome and Stampede Park are also within walking distance, making this a convenient base for event-goers. The Calgary Tower and the main downtown business district are about a 20-minute walk. Calgary International Airport is 20 km away. A bus stop is located directly outside the hotel, offering direct city bus connections, though airport trips require multiple changes. Taxis from the airport cost roughly CAD 45-60 depending on traffic. Underground and above-ground parking is available for a daily fee, helpful for those arriving by car.

The hotel offers a range of suite configurations, from King rooms to Two-Bedroom Suites that can sleep up to 6 (one queen bed, one king bed, and a sofa bed). Two-Bedroom Suites feature two separate bedrooms, a living room, and a full bathroom. All rooms include a kitchenette with a microwave, refrigerator, toaster, coffee maker, and basic cooking utensils and cutlery. Some rooms have a stovetop. Private bathrooms come with a soaker tub and shower; a limited number of rooms (e.g., Queen Suite with Spa Bath) include a jacuzzi. Room decor is generally described as functional but dated; renovations are ongoing. Air conditioning is available, but some units may be noisy or inconsistent. Windows do not open in all rooms, which can affect temperature control and fresh air. Rooms are spacious, with most offering a separate living area, desk, and dining table. Road-facing rooms can experience traffic noise, so a room on a higher floor or facing the parking lot is recommended for light sleepers.

The included breakfast buffet offers a rotating selection of hot items such as scrambled eggs, omelettes, bacon or sausage, and hash browns, plus make-your-own waffles, cereals, toast, bagels, muffins, yogurt, fresh fruit, oatmeal, and juices. Coffee and tea are provided. Breakfast is served in a dedicated dining area; during peak times it can be busy and seating may be limited. Crockery and cutlery are reusable, reducing waste compared to single-use alternatives. The hotel does not have a restaurant or bar for other meals, but numerous dining options (sushi, Vietnamese, pizza, salad, noodle bars) are within a 5-10 minute walk. A 24-hour accessible coffee machine is available for guest use.

The on-site fitness centre is equipped with a range of exercise machines and is available 24 hours. The sauna offers a relaxing option after a day exploring or working. Both facilities are included in the room rate-no extra charge. There is no swimming pool or full-service spa on the property. Guests looking for leisure activities off-site will find the lively 17th Avenue district with its bars, restaurants, and shops just a short walk away.

WiFi is free and accessible throughout the property. The 24-hour front desk can assist with concierge services, luggage storage, and express check-in/check-out. A business centre and meeting rooms are on-site, with fax/photocopying available for an additional charge. Coin-operated laundry facilities are provided, along with dry-cleaning and ironing services for a fee. Daily housekeeping is included, but frequency and quality can vary; requesting daily servicing at reception is advisable. A convenience store/vending machine offers snacks and drinks. Cots for infants are available upon request. The property is wheelchair accessible with features such as grab rails in toilets and accessible parking.
