Continental Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"This was a one night stay to be in Calgary for an early morning interview at the US Consulate. This hotel is perfectly suited for US Consulate visits as it is on the same street. We actually walked the entire way and back as our exercise. The staff is super helpful and professional. I will choose this hotel whenever I have business in Calgary. The rates are very reasonable. Usually you get what you pay for but we got more than what we paid for. If you have some large luggage to haul to your room, I suggest that you request a room where you do not have to climb too many steps."
