“Great week in Calgary”

Upon arrival we were checked in quickly and given a free room upgrade with the option of a more quiet room or better view. We chose to take the quieter room and were put in room 2301 on floor 23. The room was quite large in size with a seating area, dining area, microwave, and hot drink making facilities, TV, large bed including pillows with a choice of firmness, robes and iron + board. The room was a corner room and did still have a good view in our opinion. We didn't hear much in terms of noise during our stay unless someone was using the stairs next to our room or we could occasionally hear the C - train running which didn't bother us. The hotel's location is great, across the road from various food places so breakfast is easy to grab or you can hop onto the C - train and ride a few stops and you're surrounded by lots of shops and food options (there is also a free fare zone which and the stops closest to the hotel are part of this). Having read previous reviews about the hotel we noticed quite a few people comment about the park and walking back before dark. We didn't ever feel unsafe walking back in the dark or going past the park. Yes, there are people around who have drug issues in Calgary but they generally kept themselves to themselves and didn't approach us. We also found that we would only come across these people when we were by A&W on 7th. We used the C-train and buses to travel to various places such as the Zoo, studio bell, peace bridge, Calgary farmers market south. I would also recommend booking a meal in the Sky 360 restaurant if you want to go up the tower, there is a minimum spend per person but personally I believe this is better value than just paying to go to the observation deck (you can also get a discount on the observation deck ticket price if you use the restaurant). During our trip we went on a Viator trip to Banff, Lake Louise etc which cost £75 for two people and was well worth the money. On our last night our flight home was cancelled by KLM and we were told to find our own accommodation. We approached the hotel who were able to book us an extra night for £88 where we didn't have to change rooms and it meant we could make the best of a bad situation. If we were to return to Calgary (which we are already looking into) we would definitely stay at the sandman signature again. The location was brilliant, staff were friendly and helpful and the rooms were comfortable. One criticism I do have is that the room could have been cleaner, there was quite a bit of dust on the cabinet below the TV and you could see where it had been wiped and where it had been missed. However, I just wiped this over myself as it wasn't a massive issue for us.

“It's okay”

I did not have great expectations and I believe they were met. Mediocre is a strong word, so I'll just call this hotel medium. It's not the greatest location (I stayed here on a business trip, I didn't have much say on the region I was staying) and it can get very noisy at night. The room itself w… lisää

I did not have great expectations and I believe they were met. Mediocre is a strong word, so I'll just call this hotel medium. It's not the greatest location (I stayed here on a business trip, I didn't have much say on the region I was staying) and it can get very noisy at night. The room itself was clean and nice, but common areas deserve some love and refurbishment.
