We stayed here on Saturday night after a night of comedy at The Laugh Shop with friends. Of course, I never stay anywhere without consulting Tripadvisor first.... I was surprised that this hotel got the great reviews that it did. But I was pleasantly surprised when we got there and they were all true! The lobby is clean and well appointed, with a piano lounge as you walk in, and the restaurant, which we didn't eat at this time, but have before (and it is awesome! a little spendy, but worth it! Breakfast buffet is $25.00/person but the spread is amazing).
Staff was all friendly and helpful and check in was smooth and efficient. The rooms are nicely laid out and very clean! The one thing that I HATE though is that they still have actual coffee cups and glasses in the room. I'll say it again...... use the individually wrapped coffee cups and glasses. Who wants to use something you cant guarantee is clean? Blech!!! I went to the pop machine and got my water. Thats my only real beef with the hotel.
I would definitely recommend the hotel and would stay again!

We have been staying at this hotel for years now. We have season tickets to Stage West Calgary with 5 shows per year and generally stay overnight at least one night. Take Deerfoot to Glenmore, then just a short jaunt to Blackfoot Trail and there it is. The hotel is located just a short distance from the theatre and lots of other fun things. The Chinook Shopping Mall (huge place) is right down the street - then just off Macleod Trail. We like to take in a little gaming after the show and there are a couple of Casinos close by. NOW for the hotel: well folks I like "clean & modern" and this place offers that. Right from the front entrance through to your rooms and restaurants. We have never had a bad situation there. Their standards are met consistently. The price is reasonable - about $120 per night for queen or two queens - and worth every penny. I would say we've been going there for almost 4 years. It is our hotel of choice if we are staying in Calgary.

We checked in for one night using a discount web site and decided to stay for an extra night, we felt that the hotel staff were unreasonable with not giving us the room at the same price as the first night, even though we suspected that it would be cheaper using the web site, but as a secret hotel didn't want to risk booking wrong hotel. We went to the comedy night on Thursday and were told it would cost $10 each but in the directory in the room it was free with room keys. The hotel need to know their stuff. The show was fair, but more entertaining was the audience of women that were at each others throats after the comic took a mouthful from one of the quests beers, after she and her friend left the room for a smoke. The Hotel was stylish and comfortable. Good value for money.

Not many "chain" hotel around the S.E. part of Calgary. The Blackfoot has nice rooms, comfie beds and a friendly front desk staff. The restaurant (Green's) is aweful. The "other side" pub/bar is loud, but the daily specials are good (wings, burgers). It also has multiple pool tables and is connected to a large comedy club. In between the 2, there's a quaint piano bar. There's nothing within walking distance though.
