I had fresh hot waffles topped... More

Since I was touring this part of Canada by Greyhound bus, I did not have a car available to me. Unless you are traveling by car, or unless you plan to focus your visit to Calgary around the nearby University - you will find that this Travelodge is NOT conveniently located. It is on a traffic island, surrounded by a... More

There are only a few hotels in Calgary's NW so if you want to be near the University or the Hospital you will probably stay on the hotel/motel strip on Crowchild. We got a special deal on a so called 1 bedroom king room. I say so called because the bed area was separated from the living area by a... More

This hotel has excellent staff and the rooms are very clean. The breakfast is also very good. We also find the location perfect for our needs and is close proximity to everyone we want to see. This location is very close to everything we require. More

When you can stay in a clean room, centrally located, in a major canadian City for about $70.00 a night, it's a deal, in my books! I understood this was not a 5 Star from the get go, but the bed was clean and comfortable, bathroom clean, and stocked with toiletries, coffee, as well as free wifi. There is a... More

We stayed at the Travelodge twice on either end of our trip to Canadian Rockies. This is a typical older motel for a decent price. The first room had very comfortable beds but the second had old lumpy mattresses - hopefully this means the place is replacing the older beds. Our rooms were very clean but obviously older and in...

Our family pre booked and got a really great deal so it was affordable. However, we walked into the room to find food on the floor and a huge stain on the sheets. We always check sheets for bedbugs, so we really search beds. There were no plastic covering which is very scary considering the spread of bed bugs. There... More

Property appears to be older and is showing its age. Entire property had a strong cleanser smell (and not a pleasent one). Outdoor pool is shared with neighboring hotel and hand a number of bugs and leaves floating around in it. On the plus side, the hotel was easy to find (just off of Trans Canadian 1) and was walking... More

Got a room here during the ever-busy Stampede opening weekend, used a discount code, and was extremely happy with it all -- but especially the price. Decent location right on Banff Trail by the C-Train, free breakfast which is always nice (although it wasn't as good as many other free breakfasts offered in other hotel/motels), and clean, comfortable rooms. Loved... More

Stayed at the University Travelodge because they are listed as a dog friendly hotel. The hotel is wonderful! Very nice, very clean, the staff are so welcoming, including to the 2 large dogs we were travelling with. They were helpful, easygoing and the service was excellent!
