Hotels Near Karumari Amman Temple Calgary NE in Calgary

More than 10 minutes drive from the airport, I immediately called the hotel shuttlebus when I got off the plane. After waiting for more than an hour, I still couldn't see the trace and finally I could only call the hotel to the hotel for 17 Canadian dollars. Call the hotel three times during the period, the answer is not waiting for a while they are going to check with the driver. When I arrived at the front desk of the hotel, I said that the driver had been waiting there. I firmly answered the impossible. I have never seen the car coming. Later, I said that the car had a problem and eventually compensated for a breakfast coupon. It’s ridiculous to let the guest wait an hour on such a cold day and lie. Although the hotel is new and the interior space is large, I will not book it again next time. The next day I booked the shuttlebus, but I was late, and I was disappointed.

Date of Visit: Feb 8, 2023 Holiday inn Express is always a great stay no matter where you travel, and The Calgary airport hotel is no exception. The rooms are very spacious and always well laid out. The rooms have 2 queen beds (or a king), are always comfortable, and come with an assortment of quality pillows. The rooms always have a standard of cleanliness that leaves you without worry. The Shower is very high and spacious -which is always important for us as One of us is 6’4”. The Bathroom is very large and always clean and free of issues. The Beds have never seen any visitors when I stay at Holiday Inn Express. I always check as soon as I enter the room. There is no cause for concern here. The Breakfast buffet is always a highlight at Holiday inn Exxpress. They always have Turkey Sausage on the menu, which is important o t us because we don’t eat pork (as with Many other people). So many hotels do not consider that and only offer pork. Eggs (scrambled and boiled – sometimes omelettes), bacon & sausage, many bread products, yoghurts, fruits, cinnamon buns, coffee & tea, cereals, oatmeal, and much more. The service was very friendly and helpful at breakfast. The guest service was exceptional. Everyone was super friendly. They have a shuttle at the airport to take you directly to the hotel, but their van was not working this day – they paid for a taxi to take me to the hotel. Katey was very friendly and engaging. We had a pleasant conversation about my visit to Calgary, which was my first visit. I was there to meet friends, but they couldn’t pick me up until after 2 pm. So I sat in the breakfast area and wrote rogue trippers blog articles while I waited and had countless cups of coffee while I waited. The staff were very kind and had no problem with me being there Their internet was being upgraded – and their IT guy even came over and helped me get back online while he was working on it. Parking – there is plenty of on-site self-parking. There is a pool, fitness centre, and business centre. I didn’t use any of these services. Holiday inn Express, a hotel chain, is always our go-to place to stay wherever possible. The comfort and little things that they do differently is always appreciated. It makes travel much easier and less stressful when you have a wonderful place to stay where you feel comfortable, safe, and well-fed.

We have stayed at several Sandman locations, and based on the site pictures, we were prepared to be happy. But not so. The hotel is tired, very tired. At checkin, it was quite slow, due to a client haggling for a better price than what was offered. With 4 families in line to check in, we felt the desk clerk should have called for help. When we got to our room, it was extremely over-heated, and neither the thermostat on the wall (which we figured was disconnected) nor the remote heater control could shut the heat off. We went for dinner, returned, and found that the heater was still forcing heat. We asked for a room change, and we were given one quite quickly. Our new room was still very tired: paint on walls was chipped, bathroom needed renovation, walls were stained. THe carpet had stains, and the enamel in the sink was scratched. However, the sheets and towels were clean. The bed was comfortable. There was noise in the halls through the night, and we could easily hear the room beside us through the night. The shuttle to/from the airport takes from 15-45 minutes, so do be prepared for that.

The decoration of the hotel is simple and warm, the apartment design, the kitchen utensils are clean and complete, the room space is large, it is very suitable for short stays, and the breakfast is rich, recommended!

A really unwelcoming receptionist was on duty when I checked in. Grumpy and used unfriendly tone when we discussed. The room was quite big, but what an awful filthy floor! The carpet on the floor was full of dog hair and generally smelly. The bed was ok, but it was not evenly leveled between left and right side. I almost fell of the bed on one side. The bathroom was ok with hot water. The wifi was strong. The breakfast was just a sandwich, a donut and a juice. That's all. Cheap stay for a hotel, but not for a demanding guest.

I have stayed at many hotels in Calgary but this is my go to unless my work books us. The staff here are great and service in general is awesome. I like the selection of ppv movies including one's still in theaters. The restaurant and lounge are nice as is the free airport shuttle. The best rooms are the king bed rooms on the 5th floor.

This new hotel is located just a short distance west of the Calgary Airport. It is very fresh and clean. Rooms are not large but are very comfortable and the design and appointments are terrific. Believe every room has a full kitchen including a stove top and dishwasher. Utensils and dishes were more than adequate. Only pots and pans were a bit sparce. There is a coffee bar but no toaster. Had a great sleep each of the 2 nights we stayed. The heat/ac unit worked very well and best of all, it was quiet. And the window can be opened a bit. We did not use the restaurant but there is a breakfast buffet for $10.50/person and a full-service restaurant. The hotel has fitness centre, pool and free shuttle service to and from the airport. Only negative is we found that lighting for the bathroom mirror, even with the separate light that goes all around the edge of the mirror on, could be better. Value for money spent was very good. Would not hesitate to stay here again.

The hostel is a good base for exploring the local area is right next to a large grocery store, train station and only 10 minutes walk to the saddle dome. We especially loved the little library area upstairs - it was great to have somewhere quiet to chill in the evenings. The free breakfast is great also we really appreciated the tea, coffee, oil & seasonings provided by the hostel. In the rooms there was limited plug sockets meaning that some people had to leave their phones the opposite the room which isn't great for those setting early morning alarms etc. Also in the women showers there was no doors/locks only shower curtains which didn't feel the most secure for privacy.

We have an electric car and so when we travel if possible we try stay in hotels that have an electric vehicle charger on site. I always call the hotel directly to confirm as the websites are not always accurate. We called this hotel directly before booking onine and were advised by the woman on the phone (who had to put us on hold while she checked), that there was a car charger in the covered parking area. Great - the only warning was it was first come first served (which is how most are). When we arrived we asked where the vehicle charger was located and due to language issues the front desk person thought we were talking about a car cell phone charger... but another person came over and told us no EV charger on site. That was the whole reason for booking at this hotel and on a long weekend most places nearby were sold out. So we had to change our schedule to go and find a car charger instead of being able to do this at the hotel as planned. We would not have booked had we been given accurate information. And to pour salt in the wound, after we checked in the same person at the front desk who thought we wanted a cell phone charger called to ask if we were satisfied with the room, and I said room was fine but unhappy about no EV charger, he got confused and put us on hold and left us on hold... I eventually just hung up. Poor service. Hotel was clean. Our room was large but very spartan in furnishings and dated except new flooring. Bed was OK and no issue with noise. Shower head was long past its prime so not a great shower. Door into the room was backwards and swung to the open room and not to the wall but it had a door arm on it so you could not open all the way. Thiis made it hard to get luggage into the room as there was a table that limited access. Never tried the included breakfast. Why don't hotels offer the breakfast right until check out time? Why do they cut if off so early? I feel ripped off.

Only stayed here because we were starting a coach tour through the Rockies, arrived a day early and this was where the tour started. We had booked one night in a king room and the tour had booked us in a queen for the following night. We asked if we could stay in the same room for both nights but apparently there were no King's available for the 2nd night. We offered to downgrade our first night to a queen but again this appeared to be a problem. That was until Kaylee The Guest Services manager came along and sorted everything and actually upgraded us for both nights. Fabulous room (although if you are a light sleeper you need to be aware that the trams run alongside the hotel) Room was large, very comfortable bed, fridge, microwave and coffee maker. The whole hotel was clean and well maintained and 4 lifts meant never kept waiting long for a lift. There is a pool area which we did not take advantage of. Breakfast was good Canadian breakfast
