Alt University District by Le Germain Hôtels is officially open, giving the community a new hotel facility for visiting family, friends and guests. The Alt Hotel has been thoughtfully designed by Le Germain Hôtels to reflect the unique and modern style of University District, and offers floor to ceiling windows with sweeping views of Calgary’s downtown and the Canadian Rockies, as well as easy access to all of U/D’s amenities and nearby facilities such as UCalgary, the Alberta Childrens’ Hospital and more.
The hotel offers 155 guest rooms with a starting price point of $129 CAD per night (pending availability). The hotel offers pet friendly rooms, and all hotel guest rooms are equipped with Nespresso coffee machines, HD televisions and Chromecast devices for easy viewing, as well as free, unlimited WI-FI access. Further, the hotel offers a 24-hour fitness center for guests and underground heated parking for easy access.
Says Nadia Gravel, General Manager of Alt Hotel University District, “We look forward to welcoming friends, family and visitors to enjoy the convenient location of our latest hotel offering in University District, providing quick access to the university, nearby medical facilities, and a quick escape to the mountains west of the city.”
The new Alt Hotel also has seven meeting rooms that can accommodate anywhere from two to 150 people and an additional two rooms perfectly suited for board meetings that can accommodate up to 16 people. The hotel will also be launching a restaurant and coffee shop later this year, stay tuned for the exciting details. We can’t wait to see what they have in store!
Not a detail was spared in the design and construction of the hotel. It is Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) certified, a global recognition of sustainability achievement and leadership.
“At Le Germain, we do our very best to provide guests with the most attentive service and bring personalized touches to make everyone feel welcome throughout their stay,” continues Gravel. “Whether they’re celebrating a milestone, visiting family or friends or coming for a concert or event, we love to go above and beyond for each guest to ensure staying with us is always a special experience.”
