“A Great Plae to Stay!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed August 21, 2010

person found this review helpful

We were in Calgary for the night, and picked the Centro motel rather at random. We were just expecting a place to crash for the night, before we continued on our way to BC. However, the Centro Motel defied all of our expectations.

The room was beautiful, modern, clean and extremely comfortable. Beyond the room, free breakfast, unlimited North American calls, robes, air conditioning and wireless internet were all included, making the Centro motel a great value. Not to mention, the staff were all absolute sweethearts, and a treat to deal with. They really seem to go the extra mile. For example, they brought in a cot for us, which was actually a cozy mattress + box spring, far above the typical hotel cot standard. I have stayed in hotels that cost much more than Centro, and were not nearly as nice.

The location is close to the U of Calgary, and a short drive from downtown. It is also just off of the highway, meaning that it is ideal for any travelers going further west. Close to the motel, there are restaurants, gas stations, and even liquor stores.

I would recommend this motel to anyone staying in Calgary, as it is a true gem, and a great value. It absolutely cannot be beat. If we are ever in Calgary again, the Centro will be our first stop.

To the staff, thanks for the great experience!

“Excellent place to stay”

We booked the Centro Motel as it was a pet friendly place and after reading the other reviews. I definately use reviews to help me choose places to stay.

The motel is exceptionally clean, and the staff was friendly. The decor was better than some of the more expensive hotels I have stayed at. It is right off of Highway 1 so it was really easy to find.

I would recommend this motel to anyone travelling to Calgary!

“A Nice and Easily Accessible Motel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed August 1, 2010

I stayed in this motel and I could say hotel with my wife and little son in July. I was amazed at the cleanliness and beautiful decor of the room. Everything in the room was very nice and comfortable. It is located on Highway 1 which was good for us to complete our trip to BC. I will definitely stay in this motel again.

I noticed two things: The internet network did not reach our room which was a bit far from the office. I talked to them about this problem an they said they would solve it. So, try to be close to the office to get better connection. The breakfast was very simple, just oatmeal crispy, milk, juice and some snacks.

“The Renovations are very nice”

I stayed here a night with my partner and I must say that it was a very nice and very clean motel. They have just renovated and have made it have a very modern feel. I enjoyed my stay here and the staff in the office were friendly. The location is convenient as well.

“not your typical motel!”

We stayed for 2 nights during the Stampede. Although not so close from downtown (20$ cab ride), everything is newly renovated + free long distance calls to anywhere US & Can, free internet + 2 Mac computers in the lobby, free breakfast... Room are spacious and cleans. Only negative point: walls seem paper thin and we heard voices from other rooms. We turned on the A/C to cover eventual noise and we slept like babies. If you compare the price to similar places, it is a gem. Staff was also very helpful and polite.
