What User likes about Fairmont Palliser:
Might just be the best customer service we have ever received and we travel a lot. Upon arrival we received a text welcoming us and to let us know that if we had any needs at all that we could text them. We texted 2 separate times and the response was immediate. Wonderful! Aside from that, the hotel is beautiful. The rooms are nicely appointed and comfortable. The pool and health center are really nice. Highly recomm... View all feedback. What User doesn't like about Fairmont Palliser:
The emperor has no clothes. This place needs to be called out. Room smelled like cigarette smoke and the room noise was so loud from the street it was hard to sleep. Told front desk and they said all rooms are like it. My room was over $500 a night and could have gotten the same for $80. They are trading off the name not the quality. Oh, walked in a spill on the elevator that was there for hours with a sign. Guess no... View all feedback.

Nestled in downtown Calgary, the Fairmont Palliser is a historic gem that evokes mixed sentiments among guests. Many appreciate the elegant ambiance and responsive staff who deliver outstanding customer service, creating memorable experiences. While some revel in the charming, classic design, others griped about room sizes, noise levels, and unexpected charges. Complaints about cleanliness and maintenance issues tarnished the stay for a few. Nevertheless, its stunning lobby bar, comfortable amenities, and vibrant atmosphere, often enriched with live music, continue to attract visitors. For those seeking both history and luxury, the Palliser remains a noteworthy choice, albeit with a few caveats.

To the Yuletide Lunch on my partner's birthday. it was a three cure meal and cost per person was first course winter squash bisque.

The fairmont was a must when I wanted to treat my mother. the atmosphere made the event much more special. personal pots of tee and individualistic tee.

I love to stay in hotels that are more on the modern side, but since I was part of a room block for an event and that was available fairmont, I booked one.
