At first impression, you’d probably have a hard time believing that Hotel Arts is both a local and independent business. After all, it’s one of Calgary’s busiest hotels, hosting some of the biggest parties and celebrities, as well as, two award-winning restaurants and a pretty cool bike-sharing program.
While Hotel Arts might feel like something other than a local business, the friendliness of all the people that work there reminds you that it really is from Calgary. Since it opened, I’ve lost track of how many times I’ve gone to the Hotel Arts; sometimes it’s for poolside meetings or to dance the night away at a Halloween fundraiser. Other times it’s been to take advantage of amazing weekend rates or just to have an unforgettable brunch. However, at the end of the day, it’s the people that keep me coming back.
