Hilton Garden Inn Calgary Airport

Got the bill and it had 2 different marketing taxes that both me and my boyfriend had never even heard of before which was on top of the Gst. The room was advertised as $ 118 per night but was brought up to $ 124 I believe because it was a long weekend then when we got the bill it was $ 144 a night after all the taxes! When this was brought up to the desk guy at the front, he kept saying ask the city and laughed.
They also slipped us a bill for $ 80 in Internet fees and an upgraded room which we should not have gotten because the Internet was free. The front desk guy laughed at my boyfriend when he got mad and said we clicked on something and literally did not give a shit, it wasn’t until the security guard came to the front that he realized that it was for another room.
All of this bullshit was brought up to the manager on the last day and she didn’t even offer us a discount. Just said she’d talk to the guy.
Will never stay at the Hilton again!

This Hilton Garden Inn is a great place to stay near the airport! The staff is very hospitable, the rooms are clean and comfy. The breakfast is cooked to order, and is fantastic! If you come here without a car, the hotel shuttle to nearby places. Casino, liquor store, mall, and airport of course. There is a large indoor pool and jacuzzi, and they even have music inside the pool area! Great place to stay if you need a ride to get a car rental… We drove up to Banff and Lake Louise during this visit! No complaints, and can’t wait to return!

Very nice property. Clean rooms. Excellent guest reception and assistance. Really enjoyed the restaurant and service staff. Not a single complaint about anything during my stay.

I stay here every time I come to Calgary for business.
It’s always clean, the beds are comfortable and the service is always great.
It’s also nice that it’s a short and easy drive to the airport for those early morning flights home. :-)

We had a 10 hour layover here in the middle of our returning from Iceland to Texas so I opted to not try to stick it out in the airport. I booked here as I still had leftover Hilton Honors points from my days of traveling for work. They allow you to do a combo of points and dollars which is very nice. I got a standard king sized room. The free shuttle is easy to hop on but remember, you should always ring them to make sure it is on it’s way or get an idea of how long you will be waiting at Bay 17. The shuttle takes about 20 – 25 minutes to get to the hotel from the airport. You do have to pay for the wi-​fi unless you are a gold or diamond hhonors member so that kind of sucks and I probably wouldn’t have stayed here had I not still had my hhonors status honestly.
They have pre-​arranged times in the morning for the shuttles so we had to leave at the crack of dawn for our early morning flight but it was nice to not have to worry about it and not have to pay for it. The hotel bar and restaurant looked lovely but we arrived late and just wanted a place to lay our heads. The room was spacious and the bed was comfortable along with the pillows. The shower was great, perfect for a night before you are flying out. Since it was so late when we got there, I can’t speak much of what else there is to do around there, but airport hotels are usually only there to service those going to the airport.

This is my 1^st choice for hotels in the north east of Calgary. This last time was for work but I have stayed here when traveling through. With the shut down of the roads this is not as convenient as it once was to get to the airport, but it is still a place I like staying at.

Whilst the staff were super helpful and friendly, we’d find it hard to recommend the hotel unless you just need a 1 night stop before heading to the airport.
The hotel is located in an industrial estate and not up to usual HGI standards… in fact, it seemed to us that it was identical to a Hampton Inn rather than the next notch up for a HGI…
Our stay was so-​so… a bit noisy (not well insulated rooms and right by the road) and not a great location, but fine for a 1 night airport stop…

Rooms were dry as the desert. Not sure if that’s normal for Calgary climate since it’s my first time in the city. The room I was in had a small fridge, coffee maker & microwave. It was nice, clean, & the décor was relatively up to date. Food at the restaurant was a decent quality & staff are super nice. Everything except side dishes & dessert was $ 15 no matter what type of dish. Ha! Their breakfast was a good deal at $ 7.00 for all you can eat with the hot stuff being cooked fresh on request. I really liked that they had an airport shuttle with a reasonable schedule. It really saves on the cab fare.

I had a room and meeting room reserved at this location. Lets talk meeting room first. Coffee and tea was available in the hallway, but it was a far cry from being maintained and was very disorganized and unkept. It was unstocked and there was trash in the hallway from other meetings. I would think the staff would clean up right away and make sure we were okay with the accommodations. The staff in general was okay. Only plus is the room is quiet and clean. Free shuttle service to the airport.

Bottom line it you need a hotel near the airport here is what you get — very clean, very comfortable, quite, priced on par with other local hotels, has its own shuttle that will take you to local restaurants or train, free WiFi, good breakfast and a GREAT staff.
Did I mention the great staff?

I love Hilton Garden Inn’s so its hard for me to complain. This hotel is conveniently located close to Calgary airport so this should be your choice if you have an early flight out the next morning.
The rooms were clean, the staff attentive. A solid hotel!

Clean hotel with large rooms and a nice pool. Close to the airport but you can’t hear the planes inside. Free wi-​fi in the rooms. Fair sized pool and hot tub. Small fitness centre.

Pretty nice pool.
Very clean and staff was quite helpful
