Canada Calgary Airport Radisson

[MJRBIM]

This is an older property in need of some TLC and is probably a 2 to 2.5* rather than a 3*.

Got bumped to a business floor at check-in because it was a quiet night and I needed high-speed internet access.

The room itself was in very nice shape, probably been remodelled in the last couple of years - but the common areas (elevator, hallways, pool, etc.) are all showing the years.

It's free parking, near the airport, and it has a shuttle van. It's right on the Trans-Canada highway, near Highway 2 - so you can get to just about anywhere from the hotel.

All in all, it's a stop-over hotel, not a travel destination - fine for a one-nighter, but I wouldn't want to spend much more than that.

The post above pretty much nailed the description on this hotel. It should be listed as a 2* (unless major improvements are made).

Negatives: We had a standard room which was old, outdated, had uncomfortable beds and furniture, was poorly maintained, A/C didn't work, and it had a musky/stale odor that febreeze didn't budge. Housekeeping was sub-par. There was old room-service dishes left in the hallway (never removed over the course of 2 nights in the hotel).

Positives: The main lobby area was attractive, the staff was very friendly, the parking was free, and it's a reasonably short drive into downtown Calgary.

Overall: Is barely serviceable as an over-night stay, would not knowingly book this property again.
