The only available option for breakfast was a $36/per person buffet. Since we were looking for coffee and pastries, no breakfast was available. Asking the server if it was possible to get some pastries instead, she was very unhelpful. We opted to go into town and grab some pastries. The rooms and amenities were very nice and would recommend the hotel but not the restaurant.

We were “upgraded” to another room, that had a kitchenette. We did not want this upgrade as the fireplace was not in the bedroom (the reason we booked it) so we didn’t use it. We also ended up on the second floor, and every morning our downstairs neighbors stunk up our whole suite and clothes like grease from whatever they were frying at 8Am, it woke us up. We told the staff, they said they’d tell management, nothing happened. The wall were paper thin and you could hear everything. This was not an enjoyable stay.

This is was our second getaway from Calgary (I’m from Florida) and this place is peaceful, quaint, classic. It’s a true relaxing even in the blustery snow and the food (Conchgliette) was 10/10. We will return. Merry Christmas
