The Spotlight on Ramada Plaza by Wyndham Calgary Downtown

Comfort and Convenience in the Heart of Calgary


Modern and practical, the Ramada Plaza by Wyndham Calgary Downtown places you right in the action of Calgary’s vibrant downtown. Whether you're here for a major concert, festival weekend, or intimate live show, this hotel blends comfort with unbeatable location. With free Wi-Fi, on-site dining, and close proximity to transit, it’s a solid base for any music-filled getaway.

Why Concert-goers love it

Just a block from Calgary Transit, getting to and from concert venues is refreshingly simple—no need to stress about rideshare availability post-show. Guests appreciate the quiet rooms for winding down after a loud night out, and the flexible check-in at 3 PM gives you time to settle in before the music starts. The downtown location means you're close to both large arenas and cozy live music bars.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for a central base before and after the show
  • Solo travelers chasing bucket-list artists
  • Couples turning a concert into a weekend escape
  • Fans who want to recover in a peaceful downtown setting
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who still want location and comfort

Food and Drink Options

The on-site Cheers Restaurant serves à la carte breakfast—perfect after a late night. For lunch or dinner, the Fox on 6th Pub offers a full menu, though hours are limited. No 24/7 room service, but the central location puts you steps from late-night eats and cafés.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself is calm, you’re surrounded by a buzzing nightlife scene. Local pubs, lounges, and live music bars are within easy walking distance. The Fox on 6th Pub offers a casual pre-show drink option without leaving the hotel.

What People Say

Guests highlight the friendly staff, clean rooms, and excellent downtown location as top perks. Many reviewers appreciate how easy it is to catch a train or walk to events, and say the hotel is a great value for Calgary’s core.

Areas for Improvement

Some travelers mention that the hotel’s décor is a bit dated, and limited hours at the pub can be a letdown after a late show. Valet parking is available but has restrictions, so plan ahead if you’re driving.

The Bottom Line

If you’re heading to a concert in Calgary and want a hassle-free, comfortable place to stay downtown, the Ramada Plaza by Wyndham Calgary Downtown hits all the right notes.

Very Good - 4.0 out of 5

Oluwagbohunmi, Lethbr, visiting BMO Centre Calgary Wed, 17 May 2023

It was a good experience, but you must go outside the hotel to buy food on weekends or anytime after 7:00 pm.

Liked: Safe and neat environment.
Disliked: There was no Fridge nor microwave in the room. No bottle of water to drink. Guests pay higher rate than close by public parking lots.

Linda, Bridgewater

Stayed for a week; staff were excellent; front desk was welcoming and efficient on arrival and most helpful throughout the week. The room was clean with comfortable beds and pillows. Housekeeping was friendly and did a good job keeping the room clean and tidy - always left lots of towels and supplies. Would not hesitate to stay at this hotel again.

Liked: Location; staff; price.
Disliked: There wasn't a fridge in the room but that's not really a negative because one just had to ask and one would be delivered to the room.

Poor - 1.0 out of 5

Spruce, Kimberley

I am glad I get a chance to write a review because I need everyone to know to stay away from this hotel and I will be very vocal with all my social media contacts about my experience at this despicable hotel.

Liked: Don't have anything positive to say about the Ramada - very dirty and horrible staff.
Disliked: Staff were not helpful at all; very dirty hotel and not accommodating at all; won't be back.

Disappointing

Liked: Good location, clean room, comfy bed.
Disliked: Poor wifi connection - unable to use at all and it seems the staff are unable to help/fix the problem.It's very important to have wifi connection especially for overseas visitors.As a Wyndham owner, I never had any issues with wifi except this time!

Fair - 2.5 out of 5

Anonymous Mon, 23 June 2025

Expensive for what you get

Liked: Valet was alright, staff listened if they answered the phone.
Disliked: Narrow entrance/exit for parking. Parking is billed separately on top of your stay. Key cards for room would periodically fail and would need to be reactivated.

Ok for a short stay.

Liked: Location is good.
Disliked: It is expensive for what it offers. And takes you back to a different era. The staff is what I didn't like the most. Unfriendly and weird.
