The hotel itself is so modern but feels like home. It has an air of minimalism in the room and yet very functional. The lobby and their business centre feels so cozy to read a book or write a letter. Love the restaurant inside (had dinner and pizza take out another night and both are superb). Special shoutout to their lovely front desk crew especially Thanh (May 1, 2 and 3) who was so attentive and just happy to help and answer questions. The surrounding area is so clean, compact, convenient, lots of dining options (shoutout to OEB, Sesame and Village Ice Cream). I would love to go back to Calgary if only because of Alt Hotel at the University District.

Nice clean quiet hotel, situated right where there are shops and restaurants. Easy and quick 7min public transit bus ride to nearby Brentwood station for Calgary transit LRT train to downtown and/or bus pickup for Banff. Classic Queen sofa room didn’t have any dresser. Only hangers and open space.

The property was nice and clean. Not very wheelchair friendly. The parkade was very narrow and not impressed we had to pay for parking. Would have been nice to have coffee available in the lobby area
