It’s an old hotel with small rooms. High ceilings but two beds makes for tight space and the shower diverter was sticky. I arrived late at night and they gave me a room beside the elevator when there were options, I know because once I went to the room, at 1:30 am I went back down and 15 mins later I was able to get a quieter room. Not so premium of an experience for a $1600 three night stay.

We booked a room at Fairmont Palliser Calgary expecting a level of service that matched what we paid for. While the initial room was nice, it was facing a street with heavy construction noise that made it impossible to relax. I contacted guest services, and the lady assured me she would find us a quiet room equivalent to what we originally booked. Unfortunately, they moved us from room 1116 to room 1001, which turned out to be even worse — a smaller queen bed, more noise, and a clear downgrade from our first room. It's almost midnight, and the street noise is absolutely unbearable. We are truly disappointed by how poorly our complaint was handled, and this experience was far below the Fairmont standards we expected.

Parking in the outdoor parkade and walking aimlessly with very little signage trying to find the room was stressful. The lot is not on hotel property, it’s a public open to the elements lot, and it cost $40 for a one night stay.
