What People Say About Us



Our group hosted an international meeting and a chefs’ competition in Calgary, and our official hotel was Hotel Arts. It was extremely complex and the attendance was 245 people. All major events including the black-tie 10 course dinner with beverage pairing, were held at Hotel Arts. There was never a challenge unaccepted, never a time when anyone said no. It was always “let’s look at that” or “no problem”. This is the sign of a truly innovative organization with the guests’ interests at heart. Everything was extraordinary; the gala dinner was a true gourmet experience, and the service teams throughout the hotel always exceptionally professional. Hotel Arts is highly recommended.
