Element by Marriott Calgary Downtown

Amazing bed and pillows, the gym is open 24 hours. Well equipped gym , clean and not busy. Breakfast was great as well.

Was a great stay, the parking is the only pain in the but thing. Other than that it was great.

Great place to stay! Parking wasn’t great. Don’t take a truck over 6’ high. Great staff.

Only valet parking. Wasn't willing to spend another $35 to have someone park for me. Parked underground next door for $8.

The room was spacious, Nespresso in the room, good breakfast, free specialty coffee offered upon request, great roof top restaurant, coffee bar in the lobby, large gym, and valet services. I would book again.

There was no onsite parking and valet cost $50. It made it either inconvenient or expensive to drive there.

Staff were great and supportive of my stay, room was super nice and clean!! First night A/C was out and actually made my room hot when I was in the shower to 24° they brought me a fan Parking wasn’t great since my truck was to big for Valet underground parking, where I had to be on the app every 2 hours to pay for parking

Nice spacious rooms No parking and lots of construction in street in front, mind you we stayed during summer months Valet was helpful

Hard to park. No free parking lot

Clean and welcoming hotel within walking distance of Kensington. Friendly and helpful staff. Great fitness centre. Good restaurant on site. Comfortable beds. Reasonable price. Highly recommend.

Very spacious, clean, and new. Perfect for family.

The good first: the staff were great and the rooms were large for a city centre location. The hotel opened the day we checked in and it just wasn't ready. I think they had rushed to open before the Stampede and a major convention. The air conditioning broke down on day two of our stay and didn't come back until day six. The front desk were very apologetic but had no idea when it might be fixed. Fortunately, it was mostly temperate We didn't receive housekeeping even once during a seven-day stay. When I asked for the garbage to be removed, it was taken away promptly. It didn't bother me, so I reported it but didn't make a fuss. The pans in the kitchenette didn't work on the induction job they'd installed, but once they figured out what was wrong, new pans came fast. The valet parking system broke down on day two because the front desk rarely answered the phone during the day. This meant you had to come down to request the car and then wait 15 minutes for it. $50 a day plus tips is also very expensive for a city such as Calgary. Fortunately, there's municipal parking across the street that costs $18 a day. There are design flaws too. This is meant to be a long-stay hotel, but there's very little hanging space and one of the three tiny drawers is taken up by the Book of Mormon (this is a Marriott) and the Bible The gym is good for a hotel but the equipment choices seem a bit random. Overall, the hiring decisions were really good; the rest needs work

Amazing. Clean. Quiet. Modern. Easy to get to. Beds are comfy.

This is a very new and modern hotel. Rooms were very spacious and clean, staff were excellent and the free breakfast was a plus! Having a coffee shop in the hotel was also great. The surrounding area is quiet and not very close to many restaurants.

I appreciate the breakfast option and the fast and secure elevators. Staff were extremely helpful and friendly. I had issues with housekeeping—not the staff but the scheduling. I was there for 16 nights. (1) I had to ask for replenishment of tissues. (2) I had to ask for changing of bed linen. It was changed one time 7 days after my arrival and then nothing. I finally asked. 7 days was also too long an interval.

Very clean

Staff was reall friendly and helpful- room was spotless and well appointed. Considerate details in the continental breakfast such as multiple dairy alternatives, various jams, and almond butter. The hashbrowns and eggs were good too.

Room was nice and clean and I really enjoyed my stay. Thanks

I really enjoyed my two-night stay — the room itself was great and I was super happy with it. The only thing I noticed was that no one came in to tidy up during my stay. I was out all day both nights and came back to the room expecting it might be refreshed, but it wasn’t. Not sure if it was just due to staffing or how busy it was during Stampede weekend, but that was the only thing that stood out. Luckily it was just me, so I had enough towels and could’ve called if I needed more — it wasn’t a big deal, just something I expected. Also, I loved the free breakfast — it was actually really good. But I honestly felt kind of uncomfortable while I was eating. It just felt like staff were hovering or keeping watch, and it threw off the vibe. There were a few standing in the corners or just kind of placed around the room like security, and it made it hard to actually relax and enjoy my food. I get they’re probably just doing their job, but it did feel a bit much.

All good except the room needed fold up table to open suitcases .. We had to use the floor.

The room was very spacious, clean and new. Design was very modern. The restaurant/rooftop bar has a nice view overlooking the Bow River.

Everything was pretty good except for two things. First the temperature control was off the first day and it was super hot overnight. Second, the pillows... The pillows have the characteristic of cheap synthetic pillows which are firm and high. RIP to your neck if you are not a side sleeper.

Very spacious, clean, and new. Perfect for family.

We had a great upgrade. There was a large room with everything we needed. We were impressed. The only problem we had is that the room was very hot. We tried to turn down the heat but the temperature was not going down so we shut off the heat altogether. Also the pillows were very hard and plump. We would have liked a softer option.

Excellent rooms with kitchen facility. Good location in downtown

Decor was on point. Kitchenette room with a family was clutch. Great walkability. Floor by the elevators on 12 floor is luxury vinyl tile and is bowed creaks should likely be fixed. Seems to be close to a fire station so bring ear plugs just in case. We were there around Canada Day and Stampede so may not have been usual noise level.

The experience was 5 stars but that had nothing to do with the hotel, staff was extremely irritated whenever we called them up as if doing their jobs was an inconvenience. However I’ll still rate it 4 stars because the most beautiful woman on the planet made the experience.

Staff were great

Front desk staff not friendly, I wasn't even greeted when I walked in. I inquired about parking, staff told me she "thought" it was full and just told me to wait for the valet to confirm and ask when I asked about options. Valet, Eman, super friendly and polite. He saved the check in experience, was the only positive point. I was really thrown off with the parking issue, but indeed dealing with someone with the right attitude makes all the difference.

We stayed at this hotel for two nights and had a wonderful experience. A special thanks to **Tryphine at reception**—she was incredibly **helpful, kind, and professional**, making our check-in process very smooth. Her warm welcome set the tone for our entire stay. The room was clean and comfortable, and we thoroughly enjoyed our time here. Would definitely recommend this hotel to others and hope to return in the future!

There was a bit of a hiccup when we arrived and they didn’t have the room that we ordered. It was resolved quickly and we were upgraded. They were very apologetic and did anything to make us feel welcome.

I was able to check-in early, which is always a bonus, and was upgraded to a room with a "view". Admittedly, the view wasn't great (I could see some trees in between two apartment buildings), but the room was spacious, comfortable, clean. I would have liked a place by the door to hang my jacket and purse, but otherwise, I didn't lack for anything. The staff was very friendly and helpful and the location makes access to various parts of the city easy either by walking or (nearby) public transportation. The one criticism has nothing to do with the hotel. The figure hotels.com quoted did not include the following taxes, Alberta Tourism Levy and Destination Marketing Fund (which is a DAILY charge), so I paid almost $40CAD more than the quoted price.

Clean, nice entrance, friendly staff and great restaurant experience for breakfast with fantastic views

Staff was so helpful and knowledgeable upon check in. Speedy Service and very polite

Excellent Staff!!

Very friendly and helpful staff. The morning breakfast was excellent with great views of the city!

Great location and value.

Flott hotell, nyoppusset all over. Bad og alle andre fasiliteter topp moderne og rene og fine. Ganske sentral plassering i byen. 10 minutters gange fra Calgary Tower og Core kjøpesenter. Riktig pris.

Convenient location

Clean property, disconnected location.

Breakfast was ok but they were missing bread, staff said they are preparing but I did not see bread came out and I just went back to our room.

Das Hotel und die Zimmer sind schön gestaltet und sauber. Das Personal ist freundlich und zuvorkommend. Auch die Lage ist für einen Besuch von Calgary gut. Die Frühstückszeiten (bis 9:00am) haben wir (Familie mit Kindern) als nicht sehr komfortabel empfunden. Leider gab es auch keine Parkmöglichkeiten direkt an der Unterkunft (nur kostenpflichtiges Valet Parking wurde durch das Hotel angeboten).

Everything was up to standard except the breakfast. I had better food choices at Element Calgary airport

Awesome breakfast and super kind staff

Pls add more options for breakfast. Not only eggs. It feels tiring to eat every morning.
