Frommer's

"You can still feel the old skeletons of the Holiday Inn it once was, but ever since this hotel reopened in 2006, it's been the city's see-and-be-seen destination." Full review

DK Eyewitness

"A very hip “South Beach North” pool adds an extra perk to this chic boutique hotel located in downtown Calgary."

Rough Guide

"Stylish modern boutique hotel, three blocks from the centre of town."

Star Service
