“You couldn't find a better place to stay in Calgary”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 October 2010

person found this review helpful

Tuxedo House is a superb B&B located just outside of downtown (40 minute walk to the Calgary Tower). Glen (and Missy, Glen's dog) are excellent hosts, and you couldn't ask for anything more. Glen prepared a different breakfast each day we were there, but there was always cereal and fruit to complement the breakfast. Our first night there we had to be up early to catch a bus trip, and Glen was up early at 6:30 in order to make us eggs for breakfast (we assured him that cereal would be more than fine with us, but he insisted on making us something warm).
There are three rooms on the upper floor that share a bathroom which has a shower stall and a soaker tub. There is also a sitting area and a small counter so you can make tea/coffee. Off the sitting area is a small balcony overlooking Glen's manicured gardens. Our room had two beds and a television.
I can't imagine ever staying anywhere else in Calgary now that I've been spoiled by Glen at Tuxedo House.
If I could give this B&B more than 5 out of 5, I would, because it is above and beyond what you would expect from a B&B in this price point.

“Great Place”

My sister, her hubby, my daughter & I stayed here while attending my niece's wedding in Calgary. I chose it based on reviews here. It was actually better than the reviews!! First off, Glen was very accommodating. My brother in law arrived in the wee hours and he made arrangements for him to get in. He had parking permits for our rental cars. We LOVED the nearby Greek restaurant, Italian Deli and used book store that were walking distance away. It was a perfect way to spend an afternoon/evening getting over Jet Lag. We then went over to the Deerfoot Lodge/Casino where the rest of our family was staying and seeing their rooms and the prices they paid made us appreciate Tuxedo House even more.

Glen had a free pass for the Calgary Tower as well, which was a nice unexpected perk. The yard/garden was particularly enjoyable even though we weren't in it for long. The decorations, service and convenient location really couldn't be beat. On our way back from a week in the Rockies we were unable to get a room here and had to stay at an un-named hotel en-route to the airport and it was such a let-down after Tuxedo House.

Tuxedo House was like staying with friends. Glen's hospitality was more than what we expected and what a delight to meet Missy. A great location just minutes away from the heart of the city and easy to access the airport. We were treated to a very delicious breakfast and would highly recommend Tuxedo House. We hope that there will be an opportunity to visit again.
