Needless to say, I was very excited to spend a couple of nights at Hotel Le Germain. When I've looked into their rates and availability in the past, they were always way out of my budget, but I since I was in Calgary on a weekend this visit, their rates were actually reasonable, so I took advantage! Hotel Le Germain had all of the above and more...
The bathroom amenities were Molton Brown and smelled / felt great. They also had large mirrors throughout my room. (You'd be surprised how many hotel rooms don't!) Awesome hairdryer, spacious shower, etc... The only thing worth mentioning is that they didn't have a room service option when I was hungry for a late lunch / early dinner. Room service doesn't start until 5:30. Not a huge deal... if I weren't short on time, I could have found plenty of options in walking distance to grab a quick bite. I'll plan better next time!
I was more than pleased with my overall experience and I only hope to be back to stay at this 5 star hotel on future visits to YYC!
