Top hotels in Connaught
Residence Inn by Marriott Calgary Downtown/Beltline District
Breakfast was good with a lot of selections. The room was clean and spacious but not worth paying extra for a mountain view room. Bed was comfortable but the pillows are too flat.

Best Western Plus Port O'Call Hotel
Rooms are clean and spacious. Beds are fairly comfortable. The pool water is quite cold, the toddler pool water was absolutely freezing. We stayed there to enjoy the pools on our staycation and this definitely took away from it.

Very clean room with comfy bed. The airport shuttle and ease of getting to thr airport early in the morning was a huge bonus and having an on site restaurant if needed. We would definitely stay there again especially when traveling thriugh Calgary

Holiday Inn Calgary-Airport by IHG
Room was clean but had to unplug the heater/AC for 10 minutes as the room wouldn't stop heating. After that it cooled no problem. Staff was nice and cheery upon check in and out. Restaurant staff were great and on the ball and provided great service!
