• Gym and pool has panoramic view of Calgary.
• Television is old, toiletries are not good.

“The hotel is in a great part of town and convenient for shopping and dining. The room is not big and amenities are only standard, but the room feels new and relatively clean. The gym, pool, Jacuzzi and sauna are on a high floor with a panoramic view of the city. Parking is expensive but probably due to the location.”

• Close to shops.
• Rooms are small, no microwave, no fridge in the room.

“Our room were small and has a smell. No exhaust fan in the bathroom so it stinks when someone is using it. Not what I expected from a four star hotel. Not recommended for a family that's traveling.”

• Large bathroom.
• NA.

“I was extremely disappointed with this hotel. We were told that they would have a room for us in 1/2 an hour, after coming back they tried again to give me the 16th floor, so after 2 more hours they were able to clear a room for us with a king bed and we had to get a cot. I missed a diner date with friends and was very upset with having to wait 2.5 hours just to get a room. I gave a low rating for the staff in that I was lied too, if he had told me it was going to take 2 hours I could have gone to my dinner date.”

• The bathroom was nice and roomy. The pool area was very pleasing atmosphere.
• The room was not clean by any means.

“The room was so dusty that if I had asthma there would be no way I could have stayed in that room. Even the bathroom counter had not been cleaned. The TV was so archaic that I couldn't even plug in my camcorder. The rest of the furniture fit right along with it. The bedding linen was fitted so poorly it all came un-tucked. The fitness room was extremely cramped though the equipment was top of the line. Single cup coffee makers don't cut it for a double occupancy.”

• All around pleasant attitude of everyone.
• Air conditioner needs to blow more cold air in such hot weather!

“Although food and drinks were expensive, they were both well worth it and the service was the best I have had in many, many business trips. Room was updated and clean, clean, clean. Everything from room service to valet parking was efficient, friendly and exactly what you would expect (but do not always get) from a 4 star hotel. It was a wonderful experience.”

• Very comfortable beds.
• Television could be updated.

“I was very pleased with this hotel. The staff was excellent and the room was very comfortable. I've stayed at other upscale hotels in Calgary and the Hyatt is above or on par with most of those. The only complaints would be that the television in the room was a bit outdated and the self checkout feature could not be completed due to technical issues. In my opinion, these are very minor issues and I would definitely stay at the Hyatt again.”

• Staff, location, decor, all exceeded our expectations.
• The breakfast buffet left us a little disappointed for the price. Luke warm and a little tired.

“We loved it. The central location downtown was perfect just a few steps from the C train, which takes you almost everywhere in Calgary. One block off of the main shopping and eating area. All the staff was very friendly and helpful. The hotel itself was a perfect blend of old and new architecture, stunning yet very warm and cozy too. The room was very nice and quiet. We were on the 8th floor and heard no traffic noise from outside. We definitely will return, for holidays and business.”

• Inside was very nice.
• Road construction, very hard to get to hotel.

“We spent the night there and were not expecting to pay so much for the overnight parking! It was either spends $25.00 and tries to find your own parking or valet, if there were other choices nobody told us about them. With so much road construction and one way streets it was very hard to get to the hotel, since we have never been to Calgary.”

Cleanliness:[10] • Staff:[9] • Location:[10]

• The hotel is in a great location with excellent service.
• The double-bed room was not quite the level of luxury I expected.

“The Hyatt is an excellent hotel located in the heart of Downtown Calgary, within walking distance of good shopping and concert venues. The hotel meets the standard of a luxury hotel with well-trained staff and excellent service. I had a double bed room that was very clean with high quality beds and bedding, but seemed a bit small and in need of some minor upgrading for luxury hotel accommodation. The bathroom was well appointed and quite large. Great restaurant and good workout facilities.”

Small TV (CRT) no LCD monitor. No free internet access which I have seen at many competing hotels in my travels.”

• Steam room smelled awful and pool area was not very clean.

“I would recommend this hotel based on location. The room was spacious and clean, although the pool and steam room were not quite as well-kept, at least on the one night we were there. I would not classify this hotel as a 4 star deluxe, but overall, we had a good experience. Front desk staff was quite friendly and we didn't have any problems checking in or out.”

• Great location. Comfortable room. Good gym.
• The restaurant on Valentine's night was very poor. Run out of several main courses by 7.30pm . Long wait for everything.

“The hotel was in the perfect location for us and what we wanted to do in Calgary. The restaurant experience was unfortunate, but the manager did apologize that the Australian chef was new. The service staff in the restaurant tried, but were let down by the kitchen. The hotel itself was great. They must have a shortage of good cleaning staff as it was very late by time the room was made up. Because we were there for 4 days, I don't think they bothered too much with detailing the room over that time.”

• The service was excellent, even surpassing the Westin Calgary.
• The location is a bit far from the business core of Downtown and slightly dodgy at night.

“Staying at the Hyatt surpassed my expectations. I am usually a dedicated Westin Calgary guest, but since the recent Reno's, it is no longer my favorite hotel. The 24 hour gym at the Hyatt and the excellent service and motivation of the staff has made me love the Hyatt. Big, clean rooms. Too far from the Downtown core, but I am very familiar with Calgary and feel comfortable walking to my destinations.”

• Gracious staff beautiful building beside public transit great pool.
• We would prefer 2 queens as opposed to 2 doubles.

“The Hyatt is a lovely hotel with all the amentias and attention to detail one would expect from a 4 star hotel. The pools and exercise room are excellent and the view of the train line (LRT) kept my kids occupied for 20 minutes while I read my book. The only 2 drawbacks are it is not linked to the plus 15 walkway (a very minor issue), and that it is a little closer to some homeless shelters then other hotels. That being said there were no issues when walking around after dark.”

“Rented a car from the airport, however, when I reached the Hyatt Calgary, there was no parking in the hotel or nearby. they did not care if I was staying there, just told me that no parking was available because they are very busy with Christmas dinners etc. it was the same next day, and they asked me to Park 5 blocks away in 15c weather. Totally unacceptable.”
