Sandman Signature Edmonton Downtown Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great location for games!"

Campus Tower Suite Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The room was very clean, there are good amenities both in the hotel and the neighborhood and all staff were very friendly and helpful."

JW Marriott Edmonton ICE District

10/10 Excellent

"The room was amazing. Beautiful view of the city. Brought my GF’s bags up to the room for her. The lounge was very relaxing and fun. Brought us ice and bottles of water to our door. I like the security of knowing people can’t go onto any of the floors unless they have paid for a room. They weren’t knocking on the door at check out. Let us be and take our time in the morning. Security on site inside and outside at all times. I’m definitely going there again. And recommend it to anyone thinking about staying there."
