It's not new, flashy or 5-star. But it is a great value for those looking for a place to stay in downtown Calgary. The rooms are clean, the service is good, the restaurant in the hotel is good and it's right downtown. So, there's really not much to complain about. more

Despite reading all the reviews on this site, I decided to stay at this hotel. Big mistake! Despite being put in a smoking room when I specifically reserved a non-smoking room, the hotel has no redeeming qualities. It's location is horrible, on the fringe of downtown, next to a very seedy part of Calgary. The hotel is maybe the equivalent... more

I stayed in the Sandman hotel in downtown Calgary for 3 nights, and had all sorts of problems. The city of Calgary has an attendant in the hotel parking lot, so I paid over 50 dollars for one nights parking pass from the attendant at the door only to find out the hotel sells them for much cheaper (they waived... more
