Great welcome from the Reception staff and they were kind enough to provide a few treats and a card as a gift for my milestone Birthday. The room was large, the beds comfortable and labelling the pillows based on their firmness was a great touch. The shower was good (though only a rain shower) was provided and the toiletries were very good. All round recommended.

My 4th visit to this hotel and will definitely return.
Trams are right outside so easy access around the city, a good ‘free ride zone’ too.

Good location and modern hotel
Nov 17, 2024LiiLeeLucerne, Switzerland
Really nice and modern hotel to stay at. Great location directly next to a train station. (Which is free). The room was nice but a little bit tight for the four of us. It had a microwave in the room available what we really liked.
Swimmingpool also available, kids liked it.
Excellent hotel but parking confusing

Beds are fantastic! Probably the most comfortable bed I’ve ever slept on in a hotel. Rooms are clean and quiet. You have to park in a parkade operated by a third party. There is a sign in parkade saying to register the license plate with the hotel but no mention of paying for parking at the hotel. I paid for parking at the kiosk in parkade and…

Beds are fantastic! Probably the most comfortable bed I’ve ever slept on in a hotel. Rooms are clean and quiet. You have to park in a parkade operated by a third party. There is a sign in parkade saying to register the license plate with the hotel but no mention of paying for parking at the hotel. I paid for parking at the kiosk in parkade and when I checked in I was told I had to pay for parking. I told them that I already paid at the kiosk. That created some confusion but was no issue (I still had to register license plate) but it would have been nice to have a sign instructing hotel guests to pay for parking at the hotel check in..
not a super location unless you need to be downtown.. C-Train stops right outside hotel which is super convenient.

Lovely modern hotel

Hotel was easy to find using satnav and took us directly to the parking garage.
Check in process was quick and simple and the staff were pleasant and helpful. We had a room on the 21st floor and we were asked at check in if we were OK with a high floor which was nice.
The room was modern and very clean, with lovely fluffy bath robes! Had plenty…

The room was modern and very clean, with lovely fluffy bath robes! Had plenty of USB ports which was extremely helpful!
There was a little noise from outside but you are in the middle of a city so is to be expected.
The hotel was a 15-20 minute walk to downtown (Calgary Tower) but there were trains with a stop directly outside the hotel which would have been useful too.
The bar area was lovely and the cocktails were delicious!
I would recommend this hotel and would stay here again.
