Why in the world do you switch hotels during a four-night long weekend visit? Well to continue our (informal, or self-imposed?) adventure to visit Fairmont properties in Canada.
Our tour of Fairmont hotels continued after leaving Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel, where we spent one night in Calgary, downtown at the Fairmont Palliser.
What makes one return to a hotel in less than 12 months? For us, excellent location, service, food, and a healthy promotional offer sealed the deal for us.
After an uneventful three hour drive from Calgary International Airport, we arrived in Edmonton and easily found our hotel. Overlooking the North Saskatchewan River, it wasn’t hard to miss.
I enjoy hearing the up-sell. Sometimes it’s overrated, other times, it’s worth every moment. For our stay at Banff Springs, we elected for Fairmont Gold. Why? Complimentary breakfast, afternoon snacks, separate check-in counter, a lounge available for use throughout the day and a dedicated service team. We liked staying here a lot.
