What a DUMP
October 24, 2012I had read so many bad reviews of this place that I never would have chosen to stay here... but I had a last-minute medical appointment in Calgary and had to get a room- fast. I knew it wasn't a good sign that the Pointe Inn was the only hotel in Calgary that still had rooms available....... now I know... more

If you like heat in your room, stay away from this hotel
October 22, 2012The room was extremly cold and not very clean. There was the bare minimum for towels, if you can even call them that, as well as soap (one bar). We tried using the bathroom fan to help circulate the air, but had to turn it off because it sounded as if it might catch on fire. You definately get what... more

Will NEVER return, and they didn't seem to want me there in the first place
October 10, 2012Upon checking in we were told to wait because they were too busy to help us. 40 minutes later we're told "I guess I'll have to help you now." As she was checking us in she got mad because we didn't have the exact credit card used to book, and threatened to cancel our booking and refuse us a room.... more

This place is a dump
September 27, 2012
Very nasty hotel, lots of druggies and crackheads in this place!
Every thing was dirty and sticky. Walls are paper thin. Basically no real beds - just mattresses on a disgusting fecal mattered stained carpet floor.
I had to stay here for one night as everything else in the area was booked solid so I had no other choice.

Only in desperation
September 23, 2012We booked this hotel in July, so we would have a place to stay the night before catching a flight out of Calgary, close to the airport. WHAT A MISREPRESENTATION on the site we booked through! Some of the reviews were pretty negative, others not so much. We erred, on the "not so much " side, and now I am... more

Not bad at all
August 04, 2012Booked two weeks at Pointe Inn despite the negative reviews. Had no choice due to the fact there were 7 of us arriving from UK and it being Stampede week didn't help and had to find hotel for all of us within our budget. Very scared with thoughts what have I done? But once we checked in, we realised the... more

Their was nothing available so we googled "The Pointe Inn.Good rates and the rooms looked good in the pictures. So we went there.

Dirty
July 29, 2012We stayed here overnight and we will never come back! Firstly, not so pleasant receptionist very straight and not smiley...feels like she's not accomodating. Secondly, bad odor in the elevator and dark hallways. Rooms? Ok, functioning airconditioner and TV but the washroom is so dirty especially the toilet bowl. Quite far from downtown area.

Not terrible but not great
July 29, 2012We stayed for the global oil career expo as this was the only place we could find a room that had NOT been price-gouged ($300 - $700/night for average rooms!!!). After reading the reviews we expected it to be horrible. Although it wasn't great (small and dated) it wasn't as bad as we expected - until the next day that... more

Don't be put off by unfavourable reviews, this place is OK
July 26, 2012
We had to book this hotel because the house we had booked for 2 weeks let us down by not informing us they had sold it! THANKS. It was the only place we could find at short notice for our group of 7, 4 bedrooms were required, being the stampede week didn't help.
After reading the reviews we were a...

Don't stay here
July 13, 2012With Stampede going on, my usual hotel in Calgary was booked so I paid over $100 for a night here. I knew the shuttle only operated between 0700 and 1900 so I was prepared to spend the money for a cab in the morning, but I had misread the information and found out they only provide drop off, not pick... more

Avoid
July 13, 2012Stayed here before and after a flight out of Calgary, only because it was cheap and close to the airport. Even though they advertised free parking, they tried to make me pay. I had to ARgue and show my email before they would agree. Front desk lady was abrupt and borderline rude. Like she was annoyed she had to speak... more

false advertising
July 08, 2012My friend and I booked this hotel due to the upgrades to the hotel and it was still a reasonable price. The website refers to the renovated rooms as non smoking and the non renovated rooms as the smoking rooms. We called the hotel to confirm that all non smoking rooms had been upgraded and if not that we would... more

If you don't like your inlaws, this is the place to send them
June 12, 2012I had to stay at this place for one night. From the moment I walked into the lobby I knew it wasn't anything special but what I found was simply gross. I checked in, made sure I had a non smoking room but within 3 minutes of being there I could barely breathe. The smell of smoke, dirt and other... more

Two weeks stay and counting
January 14, 2012Checked in January 1, 2012 for a month. I had already stayed at others in Dec. and needed a place for a month. Before booking I looked at various rooms at the Pointe. I am picky, used to a house or apartments. I am more than satisfied with the room I have, and the staff and ownership have been very... more

Worst hotel ever seen
October 23, 2011We checked into the hotel at 11:00pm to get a few hours sleep before continuing on to BC. We checked out of the hotel at 11:30pm the same night. The room was disgusting. It looked as though a war had gone on inside as there were multiple holes that had been pathetically patched up. The walls were covered in scuff... more

My family and I were relocating from
September 15, 2010My family and I were relocating from Manitoba to British Columbia. On the way through Calgary we were left with very few options on where to stay as we were traveling with a pet. We ended up at the Pointe Inn, big mistake. The room was dirty, all those touch points that should be cleaned after every guest. The light... more

What a hole
October 02, 2009
My company stuck me at the Pointe because it was literally the only room left in the entire city.
The walls were so thin I was afraid someone would put a knife through it and stab me as I slept. You could here everything going on outside your room. Non-smoking rooms wreek of smoke, the smoke detectors looked like they...

Actually better than it used to be!
I have stayed here off and on for years. It seems to go in cycles. I noticed walking to my room, some of the guest room doors were open, and there were workmen inside. I could see new bathroom fixtures, new furniture and new mattresses as well as televisions.
I actually scored one...

Oh my
July 07, 2007I have had the unfortunate experiance of staying at the slum called "The Pointe". I have put in complaints to both BBB and the health board after encountering a bloody handprint and a pushy drug dealer during my 12 hours at this pit.

I booked this hotel the day before the previous, damning review was published. I did look into getting an alternative hotel but the whole of Calgary seemed to be booked up by attendees of various conferences so I stuck with The Pointe Inn and kept my fingers crossed.
My primary goals in booking this hotel were to provide a bed...

Terrible, dirty, a truck stop, police attend almost daily for problems
May 24, 2006On a long business trip in Calgary, I needed a reasonable monthly deal. I wanted reasonable and clean but this place proved old/dirty/poorly kept/but does have police protection almost daily. If you desire being surrounded by truckers & just a general freak show .... its a perfect spot. As an earlier reviewer put it "Don't expect much" ...... Well, you... more

Would Not Return
July 22, 2005I checked in and should have known this was not a good place to stay when they gave me the TV remote at the front desk; I was informed that I would get $20.00 back when I checked out and returned the remote. The lobby appears clean, however the halls are worst than dirty, and the carpets are so dirty I did not even want to walk on it in shoes! The rooms do not have screens on the windows, no... more

Cheap, and don't expect much
June 02, 2005We spent 10 hours here during a stop over in Calgary, and as such were looking for an inexpensive place to stay. It was okay, but the bed was super hard! Now that I've been there I'll go somewhere that costs a bit more next time, but if you want cheap, then this is the place. The staff were friendly... more
