The Varscona was perfect for a business stay. The rooms were comfortable and quiet. There was plenty to do in the evenings near by. The breakfast was great and the internet in my rooms was fast. The valet parking was also quick to bring your car around and I never had to wait if I called down ahead.

This hotel is just around the corner from the most popular part of Whyte Avenue. The hotel is clean and well appointed and the location is great because the late night noise isn't disturbing at all. The staff are personable, professional and very helpful. The free valet service was very convienient and useful. I also especially liked how there was... More

And returned for a conference this past week. The conference was at the university, which is a reasonable walking distance (2k) from the hotel. Lots of great extras here--the... More

It's a nice size hotel - 6 floors with a Second Cup coffee shop on the main level. Rooms are average but nicely updated and clean. Liked the big showerhead and robes! I had... More

When I checked into the Varscona I found the reception staff to be extremely efficient and helpful. I was given clear instructions on how to locate the FREE parking, the Murrieta's lounge with complementary wine and snacks, and the breakfast room with a very reasonable breakfast which was included in the price of our stay. Our room had a very... More

A very nice hotel on the trendy whyte avenue. Close to many restaurants, lots of bar actions if you are not too old for that sort of thing. Also lots of little shopping stores anything from cigars to Lulu Lemons. Rooms are modern and clean, stuff very friendly and knowledgeable of what is in the area to do. Good banquet... More

I stayed here with my husband for several nights. Overall it's not a bad hotel. Pretty average though, nothing special about it. The positives were that the staff was friendly and the rooms were clean. We used the self parking which is free in a parking garage connected to the hotel. There is a Second Cup coffee shop just off... More
