This motel was exactly what I was looking for in Calgary. I really appreciated the staff at the front desk. They went over and above to make me feel welcome. I chose this motel for its proximity to cycling trails and I wasn’t disappointed. I would definitely stay here again. Good value. Thanks

The hotel receptionist, Ethan, was friendly and informative. He answered questions i was thinking of asking before i even got a chance to ask them. Very impressed with Ethan's phone call about 30 minutes into our stay to check to see if everything in the room was as we liked and if we needed anything else. First time in all my travels that this has happened.... adds a touch like visiting friends!

I’ve stayed at Centro Motel the last few years when I come to Calgary for a specific event. This location is very close to the venue and on the edge of town, which avoids us completely having to go into the city. Our stay was comfortable, clean, and staff was excellent. A little slow on the check-in process but overall I’m very happy with this accommodation and we’ll return in the future.

Great place! I would suggest a couple of garbage cans around the property, as the only one I could locate was at the far end of the parking lot. Would stay here again ☺️
