I ended up staying in the Palliser due to some rather bad weather that Calgary was having recently; I found online that the Palliser was having some great 'weekend' specials, so I figured it would be worth the stay to stay somewhere nice, rather than be stuck in a Super 8 someplace. I also decided to go with the Fairmont... more

My boyfriend and I stayed for one night, a birthday present, and I would not go back. The parkade, located in the back, was very confusing and there was a lack of signs to get you to the lobby. Once we reached the lobby, service was ok and we got to our room. We had ordered champagne when we booked... more

I recently stayed at the fairmont palliser. I have travelled quite extensively around the world and usually stay at 4 or 5 star properties. I've stayed at other fairmonts and enjoyed my experiences there but I did not enjoy my stay at this one. I have to say it ranks far below my experiences at other hotels that should be... more

We were travelling on the Rocky Mountaineer the next day and this hotel is idealy located... more

This is a beautiful old hotel right in downtown Calgary. The lobby is lovely, and the rooms are generous in size. Although the bathrooms are a little out-dated, they are well-kept. The location is ideal, one block from Stephen Ave and the Calgary Tower. more

Always wanted to stay at the Palliser. Fantastic property in the heart of old Calgary. Nice to see a steam room, good pool and hot tub. For the price good room, courtyard room not train side. Lobby is top notch - world class. Would be better if they had free wireless internet at least in the lobby and parking at... more

I have had a mix of experiences in my various stays at this hotel. None of them have been bad, but some more spectacular than others, so clearly it depends who you are dealing with on any given day. Last time I was here, the doorman retrieved my bag from the taxi and had my room key to hand to... more
