“Good Business travel hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 24, 2013

This Holiday Inn is in a great location for business trips in Calgary. Its very close to downtown for meetings, the parking is free, and there is lots of amenities very close to the hotel (Chinook Mall is close).
They staff are friendly, and will call to ensure you room is to your satisfaction. There is a pool, restaurant and lounge on sit. The rooms are quiet, the beds are comfortable and the wireless internet is fast. I would stay again.

“dissapointed”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed December 20, 2012

i stayed in this hotel last week and it was comfortable and clean. the beds were soft and i had a good nights sleep. on my way to check out though my 4yr old son and i could hear swearing and laughing coming from the from desk. i went to complain and it turns out it was the manager doing the swearing. his voice was easily reconizable. he denied it and apologised saying it must have been another guest.
being a mother i was shocked that someone whos job is to deal with the public could do this. children are always about.
not impressed.

Room Tip: ask for a room away from the train which can be heared through out the night.

I was very sorry to hear of this incident especially after a nice visit with our Hotel, this is not the way we wish for our guests to remember us by.

I first of all apologize, this type of behaviour is unacceptable and since my return have spoken to the individuals at the desk, I am unsure what caused this rude language but have made it very clear that it was unprofessional and not acceptable.

Please accept my sincere apologies,

Sincerely,

“Very comfortable for a quick weekend away”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed December 20, 2012

My husband and I had the opportunity to stay at the Macleod Trail hotel back in October. We where there to attend a friends wedding. I have stayed at the hotel over the last few years it has alwasy been great. It;'s nice to see that they done some renovations. Due to the landscape the hotel is on it alwasy makes me snile when you arrive on teh main floor but you need to go down to get to the room on the second floor. We have a nice room smalle but everything was there. Only had coffee in the restaurant but everyone we met during our stay was friendly and eger to offer any assistance. The location is great with the shopping centre just down the street. Thank you we will be back.

Location is convenient, close to downtown.
Price per night was decent considering the cost of other hotels in the area.
Small room. there wasn't much space to put our luggage.
Not very well lit.
Bed was comfortable, room was clean, prompt room service. good food. friendly staff.

overall - a nice place to stay.

Thank you very much for taking the time to share your review, we were very pleased to read that you enjoyed your visit with us, our Hotel is in a great location as you had mentioned and our prices based on a full service Hotel are very comparable and more importantly priced lower than the downtown core, as mentioned a quick 5 minute car ride and you are downtown, or at the BMO conference center, Stampede Grounds, Chinook Shopping Center and even the trendy Mission area and 17th Avenue, the transit system being located right beside us is also a great benefit.

Have a wonderful holiday season and thank you for your business.

“OUCH!!!”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed December 9, 2012

Stayed Friday night of Rememberance Day weekend. Room was fine, food in lounge ok. But at breakfast slipped & fell on the ceramic tile stairs at the back parking lot entrance. Maintenance man was mopping, just looked at me & said "it just slippery" & kept mopping! Didn't ask if I was ok, or come help me up or anything! Eventually got myself up & limped away to elevator. At check out a little later, I told the girl at the desk about my fall. She said "oh, sorry" & that was it! Didn't ask if I was ok, offer an address for a walk in clinic to get checked out...nothing! She finally asked us how our stay was, & I said "ok, except my back after falling on those steps!" Got a dirty look from her!! A month later, back is still sore! Definitely will not stay here again. Stairs on other flights have a rubber bullnose strip to stop slips, but not those flights at the entrance!!

Thank you for your comments, I will start off by offering you a sincere apology, I was shocked to hear that your incident was not given a sincere reply from our staff members, I would have never expected this, as we hear quite often how wonderful our team members are.

We are constantly cleaning our public areas since we have 4 entrances into our Hotel, and with our snowy and slushy weather must mop often, we place door mats at all entrances however this does not prevent our floors from getting wet and we make all effort to ensure proper "slippery when wet" signs are displayed everywhere along with regular maintenance with cleaning th eareas. That being said I have the expectations that our team members respond to any slip and fall and more importantly to any negative experience as well we expect our team to offer a sincere apology and offer of assistance, you felt this was not provided and I apologize.

Your letter has been shared with all department managers with a request from me to ensure we speak about this during our daily meetings.

Thank you for your business and I wish you a wonderful holiday season.
