Free underground parking, free continental breakfast, every suite with two bedrooms, two baths, balcony, living area and kitchenette...this place is fantastic. At first glance, you might not know what to make of a hotel above a Sears, but this is a fantastic hotel. Great by any standards (not just those of the mediocre hotels in town)! While fairly expensive (but... More

I stayed at the Platinum Hotel for a month in March to finish a book I'm writing. The experience was outstanding. I booked the hotel after seeing the photos on their website. I was curious to see if a boutique hotel actually existed in an industrial city. It turns out that yes, it does. The Platinum exceeded my expectations by... More

Located off the east end of Franklin Avenue, this hotel is a ways away from the popular restaurants such as Earls, BP's etc, but there are some smaller restaurants located nearby, so you won't starve. However, because of the small kitchen, complete with 2 ring stove, microwave, fridge, pots, pans and dishes, we opted to go to nearby Save-On-Foods and... More

Used to go often, the suites are nicely done up. However, I had an incident that scared me there. I woke up to find someone had gotten into my room and was sleeping on the floor. After getting the guy out, I let the front attendant know, he found out it was someone from upstairs. They determined the lock was... More

I was very excited to stay at the Platinum Hotels in Fort McMurray because I had heard so many great things about the place. Internet worked great, and I saw that they offered free calling all throughout North America which would be great for people traveling from afar. All of the entrances are highly secure and monitored at the Front... More

I was impressed with the size of the rooms. They are beautifully decorated and many extras with many conveniences of home. Not your typical hotel room. I was very surprised at the free long distance and wireless internet offered each day you stay. Great location and great value. I recommend this hotel for your next visit.

This place is elegant, clean, frendly and has fresh starbucks coffee! The free long distant package and internet service was a treat. I loved style and paintings my room was separate to my working and living space. We had a 2 bedroom and it was very spacious. It was so nice to end my day there.

I was pleasently surprised when I stepped into this property. I was wowed by the decor and overall presentation. Very fashionable for Alberta's oil town! The lounge in the lobby was quite quaint and really fabulous for us lady travelers... and it was really nice to grab a starbucks on the way out in the morning. Thank you Platinum Hotels.

The rooms are beautiful, modern and very clean. Great service and fresh Starbucks every morning!! Close to all the restaurants and services. Just like you are in a boutique hotel in Vancouver or Calgary. I will definitely stay here again and again. It is by far the nicest hotel in Fort McMurray.
