Easy check-in. Friendly and helpful staff. Just a short 3 block was to the C-Train which dropped us off at the gates to the stampede grounds (which is why we were there). A very nice roof-top restaurant.

I had an amazing four-night stay at Element by Marriott Calgary Downtown, and I couldn’t be happier with my experience. From the moment I arrived, I was welcomed with genuine warmth by the front desk staff, who made me feel comfortable and valued right away.

The room was spotless, spacious, and incredibly comfortable. Everything—from the fresh smell throughout the hotel to the crisp, clean sheets—made it feel like a home away from home. I also felt safe and at ease during my entire stay, which made the experience even better.

The breakfast buffet was absolutely outstanding! There was a great variety of fresh and delicious food every morning, and it exceeded my expectations.

Every dollar I spent was worth it. The excellent service, cleanliness, comfort, and relaxing atmosphere made this one of the best hotel stays I’ve had. I highly recommend this hotel and will definitely stay here again when I’m back in Calgary.

Would not recommend, would never stay here again. I booked a suite - upon arrival at 5pm (checkin was 2 hours before at 3pm) I was told to wait while they checked with house-keeping if my room was ready. I asked why it wouldn’t be ready when checkin was 2 hours ago. The concierge then asked me if I’d prefer an upgrade. I wasn’t sure what would be better than a suite but I said sure. Upon getting to my room I realize concierge had lied - this room was half the size of the one I booked and paid for (it didn’t include a couch or kitchen like I had booked). They tried to tell me it was an upgrade but had downgraded me. I immediately asked to speak to the manager. They told me no manager was available but the supervisor told me they’d have the manager contact me, and moved me to the suite I had originally paid for. Upon getting to my suite house-keeping was just leaving (so my room was not ready at all and instead of saying sorry it’s not ready yet they tried to put me in a worse room hoping I wouldn’t notice).

The next day I inquired at the front desk to speak to the manager as I still hadn’t heard from the manager. I also asked for fresh towels (they don’t bring them to your room unless you ask). Neither of those 2 things happened - no contact from the manager, no fresh towels.
The next day I checked out and the manager said no one told her I had asked to speak with her.

Staff couldn’t care less. Stay elsewhere. Way better options in the city.

I was very disappointed with my stay. The heater in our room didn’t work, and the temperature outside was in the single digits, so the room was freezing cold. The staff initially tried to fix the issue, but unfortunately it didn’t resolve the problem.

We eventually had to change rooms in the middle of the night. However, the new room was much smaller and not the room type I had originally booked. By then, it was already very late- around 12 am already …my child had started sneezing because of the cold, and we were exhausted. We didn’t have the energy to go through another room change—we just wanted to get some sleep.

I appreciate that the staff genuinely tried to help, and I understand the situation wasn’t entirely their fault. However, the overall experience was very disappointing and significantly impacted our stay.

Nous avons passé un excellent séjour dans cet hôtel et nous en gardons un très bon souvenir. Dès notre arrivée, nous avons été accueillis avec le sourire par un personnel chaleureux, professionnel et toujours disponible pour ré à nos questions. Le service a été impeccable du début à la fin.

La chambre était spacieuse, très propre, calme et parfaitement entretenue. La literie était extrêmement confortable, ce qui nous a permis de passer de très bonnes nuits. Nous avons également apprécié les équipements modernes ainsi que l’attention portée aux moindres détails.

L’emplacement de l’hôtel est idéal, à proximité des principaux sites à visiter, des restaurants et des commerces. Cela nous a permis de profiter pleinement de notre séjour sans perdre de temps dans les déplacements.

Le petit-déjeuner était varié, copieux et composé de produits de qualité. Il y en avait pour tous les goûts, et tout était constamment réapprovisionné. Les espaces communs étaient eux aussi très propres et agréables.

Un grand merci à toute l’équipe pour son professionnalisme, sa gentillesse et son sens du service. Nous nous sommes sentis les bienvenus tout au long de notre séjour. C’est un hôtel que nous recommandons sans aucune hésitation à tous ceux qui recherchent confort, qualité et tranquillité. Nous reviendrons avec grand plaisir lors d’un prochain passage. Merci encore pour cette magnifique expérience !

Iliyah from Billing is very helpful and accommodating and the manager from Element Downtown, Gurvinder was considerate enough to let us have a complimentary valet parking as I told them I was not aware that its not yet included on thaw rate as I already prepaid our stay there due to my son’s basketball tournament. We booked on a third party (Expedia). He was kind enough to understand my situation as a mom on a limited budget. Had a wonderful stay. Breakfast is superb!

Kitchenette with large fridge/freezer, dishwasher, well placed outlets with USB-B and USB-C plugs integrated. Nespresso machine and separate kettle for tea. There was a filtered water and ice machine in the hallway. The beds and pillows were comfortable. The bathroom was spacious and the large shower has a place to put your foot when shaving your legs. Nice, large desk and office chair for work area plus a comfortable sofa for sitting. The breakfast, while pretty much the same as every other hotel's free breakfast, is in the beautiful 12th floor restaurant with fantastic views over the Bow River. We will definitely be back. We walked to and from the Jack Singer concert hall for a show (about 25 minutes one way) and also enjoyed walking to the Kensington area across the bridge. We didn't need our car at all after checking in, although the valet parking ($30) does allow in/out privileges.
