Very spacious King room, clean, comfortable and bright. I always hate when hotel rooms are lacking on lights, this one definitely was not. There were lights everywhere. The pool was a little small for swimming in but was warm and has a nice waterslide. The hottub was clean, what more can you ask for. Breakfast was adequate with the usual toast, waffles, coffee, juice etc. Overall I had a great stay accept for on my second night in the hotel the service was a little lacking, this one incident is the only reason I didn't rate it higher. I had gotten left overs from a resaurant the night before and was wanting a plate and some cutlery to be able to eat if from. I called guest services and asked if they had any paper plates and cutlery I could use to eat my food with, the person on the phone seemed a little annoyed? but said he thought so and asked what my room was in, I offered to come down and get it but he said that is fine. I never heard from him again and those kinds of things are just unacceptable to me.

Overall great stay.

I can't say much about Calgary that you don't already know. It's one of the coolest cities on the planet and one of my favorites. This Wingate was also one of my favorite hotels.

This is a classic Wingate: new, big, clean, crisp and everything you want in a hotel. Well, I wish it were about 15-20 minutes closer to downtown, that's the only thing I would have wanted. But it's close to the train which was nice. The room was perfect, a huge comfortable bed, a big, nice, clean, well-stocked bathroom with nice thick towels and nice toiletries and the room also had a fridge and microwave. The breakfast was great with some hot items in addition to the usual cereals, oatmeal packets, coffee/tea/juice/milk, breads/bagels, etc. There are quite a few restaurants and fast food places closeby and shopping of all kinds. I hope to be back in Calgary next year, it's such a great city.

Nice clean rooms, only problem was the air conditioner points right at the one queen bed closest to it and blows into your face at night unless you turn it off and then there is no air movement in the room at all. Free breakfast was nice as we are not huge breakfast eaters. Staff was very helpful with directions to where ever we needed to go. We would stay again.

We stayed at the Wingate the first two nights of and the last two nights of a 2 week vacation to Canada and it was quite simply the best, relaxed and most comfortable hotel we stayed in the whole trip - and we stayed in some very well known and famous hotels, including the Fairmont Banff Springs. I would recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Calgary, the staff are lovely and very helpful and the hotel is very well located.
