Hotel Details

Location

Situated on the edge of Chinatown with a direct frontage on the Bow River, the property is a short walk from downtown attractions, shops, and restaurants.
The apartment is in a central but relatively quiet area of downtown Calgary, right at the riverwalk. Calgary Telus Convention Centre is an 8-minute walk away, and Calgary Tower is under 1 km. Devonian Gardens is a 12-minute walk, and Stampede Park is 2 km. Calgary International Airport is 12 km away, with an airport bus stop only a 5-minute walk from the property. Prince's Island Park and the Peace Bridge are within a 10-15 minute walk. The immediate neighbourhood includes a supermarket, many Asian restaurants, and the lively Chinatown area. The building itself has good security, with CCTV and smoke alarms.

Accommodation

One- and two-bedroom apartments with private bathrooms, fully equipped kitchens, and private balconies offering river, city, or lake views.
Each apartment has a private entrance, a separate living room, and one or two bedrooms. The main bedroom has an en-suite bathroom with a full bathtub; a second bathroom with a walk-in shower is available in the two-bedroom units and the penthouse. Beds are queen-sized. The kitchens are full-size with a stove, oven, microwave, toaster, coffee maker, fridge, dishwasher, and basic pots and pans. Kitchens in most units include an island; the 'Apartment with Balcony' has a dining table instead. Each apartment has a washing machine, a flat-screen TV (often with Netflix and other streaming apps), and heating. Some units have tiled floors, others carpet. The penthouse has a large terrace with river views. The accommodation can feel dated or worn in some units, and the condition varies; photos may not fully represent all apartments.

Dining

There is no on-site dining, but the Chinatown location provides a wealth of nearby restaurants within a short walk, along with a supermarket for self-catering.
The property does not have a restaurant or bar. The fully equipped kitchen allows for self-catering, with a supermarket (Canada Superstore) conveniently located nearby. The immediate area in and around Chinatown offers a high concentration of restaurants, including Vietnamese, Chinese, and other options, all within a few minutes' walk on Centre Street South. For a sit-down meal, Prince's Island Park's River Cafe is a short walk away. The apartment includes basic cooking utensils, spices, and coffee, which supports in-room dining.

Leisure

The property has no pool, spa, or gym, but the riverfront location offers direct access to outdoor recreation.
There is no swimming pool, spa, or fitness centre on site. The Bow River pathway network is directly accessible from the building, making it suitable for jogging, walking, or cycling along the river. Prince's Island Park is a 10-minute walk away and provides a large green space, as well as an ice-skating rink in the winter. The balcony is private to each unit.

Top Strategic Tips

  • 01

    Book a 2-bedroom apartment if travelling with 5 or more people, as the maximum occupancy is 5 persons for these units.

  • 02

    Factor in that parking is not available on site; use free street parking from 6 PM to 9 AM or a nearby paid parkade.

  • 03

    Request early check-in or luggage drop-off in advance; the host may allow luggage storage from noon if a same-day departure is not scheduled.

  • 04

    Choose a river-view apartment for the most desirable outlook; units with balcony views of the Bow River are consistently noted for their setting.
