Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers luxuriously appointed rooms with comfortable, tasteful furniture, great lighting accents, a lovely soaking tub, and a spacious balcony offering a spectacular view of the South Saskatchewan River valley. The service was super friendly and accommodating, with excellent location benefits. The dining experience, while good, could offer more variety. The location is perfect for exploring the city, and the facilities meet expectations.
For our anniversary getaway, the hotel provided clean and comfortable rooms, but the early closure at 9:00 AM may not suit late arrivals or those wanting to sleep in. The price seemed high for the basic, small rooms.
I had a fantastic stay at the hotel! The rooms were beautiful, very clean, comfortable, and quiet. The service was top-notch with friendly and helpful staff. The location was excellent, within walking distance to many restaurants and pubs. The dining experience was wonderful, offering a wide range of choices. Overall, a great value for the price.
