Chain-Brand, Family & Budget-Friendly
Visitors who love a particular brand of hotel have high odds of finding one in Calgary. Travelodge, Ramada, Comfort Inn and Suites, and Best Western are just a few of the well-known chain hotels that operate in Calgary. Many of these properties offer family-friendly features such as swimming pools, video game systems, Internet in rooms and on-site laundry. Even in winter when Calgary gets downright chilly, families can still make a splash in several hotels. The Sheraton Cavalier Hotel boasts the 3,000-sq-ft indoor Oasis River Country Water Park and the Hampton Inn and Suites features a twisty indoor blue waterslide.
Larger families looking for a hotel offering multi-room suites where they can spread out and each get a bed can opt for the Travelodge Hotel Calgary Macleod Trail or the Delta Calgary South. Visitors on a tight budget will be able to find a motel in the city that is clean and comfortable and won't break the bank. A conglomeration of motels called Motel Village is situated near McMahon Stadium and the University of Calgary and appeals to a wide range of budgets.
