Reviews of Alt Hotel Calgary University District 3 stars

Clean , staff were great

No complaints ! Clean, comfortable and friendly staff !

Staff was outstanding. Kind and informative. The vibe is just relaxed, inviting and care free. No issues at all and what more could you want for a visit to your home city!

Excellent and relative central location in the University District.

One of only 2 elevators in the hotel was out of service for 5 of the 7 days of our stay.

The location is awesome! The hotel lobby and seating area is really nice.

The shower wasn’t awful but I didn’t love the open concept where water got everywhere— the bath mat would just get soaked when we would use the shower.

The staff and the location of the hotel

The difficulty circumstances generated by the malfunctioning of one of the elevators. The lack of option in the hotel for breakfast was also a negative aspect of out stay.

Walking distance to the university campus. Nice clean rooms. Newer hotel and great staff

The pillows. OMG get rid of those pillows

The staff communicated very well and were friendly. Also, the location was good.

Towards the end of our stay, they called us and caused a lot of stress by mistakenly telling us that we had already checked out, even though we still had two days left.

Loved the location, its away from downtown Calgary, but close enough for a cheap uber ride, and still plenty restaurants and cinema on the doorstep. The adjoining restaurant was pretty good too.

Nothing to complain about here !

I flown to Calgary for work a number of times and usually stayed at one of the airport hotels. A family road trip got me exploring other hotel options, and I'm glad to have found Alt Hotel Calgary University District. Although the property is located on U of C grounds, the University District is a residential area with lots of ground floor shops. There were lots of shops within walking distance of the hotel (restaurants, grocery store, cinema, and more) which was hugely conveniently. CF Market Hall, an upscale shopping centre, was just a short drive away. The hotel itself was new and the only tower in the area. Our room was on the 10th floor which had a lovely view. The room was modern and clean. The bathroom was well laid out. Paid parking was available at a cost with in/out privilege. The parking garage was safe and well lite. The lobby had a lot of space for hanging out.

Limited food options, particularly breakfast, at the hotel. We wanted to leave early one morning to explore and didn't want to wait for restaurants in the neighbourhood to open, so I brought some yogurt and fruit from the grocery store across the street the night before to eat in the morning.

New, minimalist design, everything I need is there though, if not u can ask them to provide (like I needed a kettle for hot water). Sufficient lighting in the room. Spacious at the lobby.

No coffee shop (I know it’s coming 😍). Better if a luggage rack can be placed in the room as we had two big cases. Our bad back couldn’t easily access to the one placed on floor. Given so much space between the sofa n tv, that’s would be great if there is a small coffee table.

Staff were very helpful and kind and friendly

modern, extra clean, location is great the large windows are making your stay more interesting with wither the mountain or the DT landscape overall, great place
