“I enjoyed staying here.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 January 2012
2
people found this review helpful

Stayed for a 2-night business trip. Location is right in the middle of downtown and within walking distance to many places. Lobby is a busy place and desk workers are friendly; okay bar/restaurant. Pool room was very nice, with a small exercise room attached. My room was on the 9th floor, and though small, was clean with working amenities. No signs of bedbugs or other critters (I always check in this day and age). Cleaning staff was also friendly. Garage parking was about 16 dollars a day if I recall, but seems safe and heated. Would stay here again.

“Decent hotel”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 December 2011
2
people found this review helpful

Adequate is the best way to describe this hotel. Decent location, average rooms. Other than a couple light stains on the carpet, the room/hotel was pretty clean. Moxies restaurant is attached and very good. They have a nice sports bar/lounge on the 2nd floor too. fitness centre is simplistic and a little dated. Pool was decent but hot tub wouldn't work for us. We didn't ask about it though. Front desk staff were very courteous and friendly. Parking has in and out privelages for $16. Connected to Calgary's +15 walkway was a treat since it was so cold out when we visited. I'd look for something a little nicer next time but would be fine with staying here again.

“Check your bill ...”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 December 2011

people found this review helpful

Stayed at the Sandman, Calgary for 3 nights on a recent business trip. The hotel was conveniently located close to our client, and relatively inexpensive. Overall the hotel, room and restaurant was a bit run down and tired. One thing to be cautious of is to make sure you are not charged for items other clients bill to their room at the Moxie's restaurant located in the hotel. I found a $40 charge on my bill from this restaurant that wasn't mine ...

“An enjoyable stay just minutes from the shops”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 November 2011 via mobile

person found this review helpful

I flew in for a 2 night stay after having been awake some 40 hours in transit. The staff were fantastic, had me up to my room quickly on the top floor which was spacious and comfortable with a welcome king size bed. In the morning breakfast was downstairs at Moxys Bar and Grill, the waitress who served me was fantastic and rewarded with a large tip to boot.

The hotel is situated on the 7th avenue tramway, travel along this avenue is free, great if you're planning to shop. Across from the hotel is a Macs convenience store, subways and macdonalds for those wanting quick bites, there's also a lot of restaurants in the vicinity to choose from.

An enjoyable stay was had here.

“Good city centre location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 November 2011

person found this review helpful

Stayed here in September 2011. Good size comfortable room. Conveniently located for Calgary attractions - easy walking to shops and other venues like Calgary Tower. Used Moxie's restaurant on site for dinner and food good. Tim Horton's across the road for morning coffee and breakfast. Staff friendly and helpful. Car parking on site a very reasonable cost. Would stay here again.

Room Tip: Trolley runs along 6th Avenue and can be a little noisy at times.
