The Spotlight on Sandman Hotel & Suites Calgary South

Modern Comfort Just Minutes from Calgary’s Music Action


Stylish and contemporary, the Sandman Hotel & Suites Calgary South is a great pick for concert-goers looking to stay just outside the downtown hustle. Situated only 6 miles from central Calgary, it strikes a balance between convenience and comfort. With free Wi-Fi, on-site dining, and a relaxed vibe, it’s a smart base for music fans exploring the city.

Why Concert-goers love it


Concert fans appreciate how this hotel offers a quieter night’s sleep while still being a quick drive or ride-share away from Calgary’s top venues. The 24-hour Denny’s is a huge bonus for those midnight post-show cravings, and the hotel’s free parking makes it easy for road-tripping fans. The 16:00 check-in gives you time to settle in before a show, and Deerfoot Meadows nearby offers last-minute shopping or dining options.

Who this Hotel is great for


- Groups of friends who want a no-fuss stay with space to relax
- Solo travelers catching a bucket-list artist in Calgary
- Couples looking for a concert-filled weekend with a cozy room to come back to
- Fans wanting a quieter post-concert recovery in a less hectic part of town
- Budget-conscious music lovers who still want style and convenience

Food and Drink Options


There’s no shortage of food here. The on-site Denny’s is open 24/7, perfect for grabbing a bite after a late gig. The Shark Club Sports Bar & Grill offers burgers, drinks, and a lively energy if you’re not quite ready to call it a night. You’ll also find plenty of walkable eateries nearby at Deerfoot Meadows. Breakfast is available any time at Denny’s — ideal for sleeping in after a big night.

Nightlife Options


While the hotel itself isn't a nightlife hub, the Shark Club is a solid pre-game or wind-down spot with TVs, pub grub, and cold drinks. Want more action? You’re a short drive from Calgary’s bars, lounges, and live music spots downtown.

What People Say


Guests often praise the modern rooms and friendly service. The proximity to shops and restaurants is a big plus, and many love the convenience of free parking. Reviewers also highlight the value for money, especially for those not needing to be directly downtown.

Areas for Improvement


Some guests note that the location, while convenient, isn’t super walkable to music venues — so plan on driving or taking a ride-share. A few mention that the rooms can feel a bit basic depending on the suite type, but most agree they’re clean and comfortable.

The Bottom Line


Sandman Hotel & Suites Calgary South is a well-priced, comfy option for concert-goers wanting easy access to Calgary shows without the downtown chaos.

Good stay. Stars

Liked: Staff was very friendly and accommodating, room was clean and bed was very comfortable and quiet. Central to where we needed to be. Inside of the hotel was clean, and pretty nice.
Disliked: Smoking lounge facility at the main front door had a number of people in it and partially obstructed access to the main front lobby door both times we arrived at the hotel during our stay. This needs to be cleaned up more often, and better yet moved to another location farther from the main front door so non smoking guests don’t have to work their away around the smoker to access the building. Perhaps it was just a busy night, but not a very good first impression. We will be back to see what it’s like next time.

Liked: Everyone was very nice. The property was clean. It was a very fun place to stay!
Disliked: We couldn’t get our room cleaned without asking a few times. When it did get cleaned the door was left open and not pulled to and left open all day while we were out. They had it fixed and apologized.

I would stay here again...

Liked: The room was set up nicely. It had a balcony which was nice. It was so nicely situated for restaurants and shopping!
Disliked: The carpet was damp, most likely due to recent cleaning. But, that made the room have a smell and dampness. Also, there were some bugs on the slider doors. Was very noisy by the stairs door.
