The best part of the Calgary Stampede experience for us was the Fairmont Palliser. Unbelievable service! It was so nice to come in from the crowds and have the staff to foresee all your needs. I only mentioned to one person in casual conversation that it was our anniversary, and when we came home to our room that evening, there was a card and desert on our bed. Everyone from check-in to valet to housekeeping was top notch service.

I liked the staff a lot, as they were very helpful and nice, but I still think the Fairmont chain is overpriced for what they offer. The old and bad smell from the rooms and the exaggerated price of the parking makes you pick a different hotel!

The brightness on the TV didn’t work. They sent two people to try and fix it but couldn’t. They said it was the sensor that was the problem and that they couldn’t replace the TV. We had to watch the Oilers final semi finals game as if most of the lights were out in the arena. We could follow the players but not the puck. The room phone did not work, no dial tone. Checked the connections and it was plugged in. No view except looking at a large building across the street. Went to have a brandy in the iounge which is located right next the the lobbybut, they had a function set up in the lobby that was attended by a large group of people that were so loud that it was very disturbing trying to enjoy a quite drink. Not worth the price. Next visit will be at the Hyatt.
