Staybridge Suites - Calgary Airport By IHG

Spacious Comfort Near Calgary’s Music Scene

Modern, functional, and welcoming, Staybridge Suites - Calgary Airport offers a relaxing retreat just outside the downtown core. Located just 5.2 miles from Calgary’s top entertainment hubs and only 2.5 miles from the airport, this 3-star hotel is a convenient base for fans flying in for a show or driving into the city. With free parking, roomy suites, and a hot tub, it’s a solid blend of comfort and practicality.

Each room includes city views, a flat-screen TV, and either a kitchenette or full kitchen setup — ideal for longer stays or groups wanting more space. The indoor pool and fitness center add to the hotel’s all-around appeal, making it a popular pick for concert weekends.

Why Concert-goers love it

Staybridge Suites is a smart choice for music fans thanks to its easy access to Calgary’s major venues via a quick drive or rideshare. Despite being close to the action, the hotel sits in a quieter area, offering a peaceful place to unwind post-show. Late check-in (from 3 PM) and a free airport shuttle make travel logistics a breeze, especially for out-of-towners catching a late-night flight or arriving just in time for the encore.

Who this Hotel is great for

• Groups of friends seeking spacious suites with kitchenettes
• Solo travelers flying in for a bucket-list concert
• Couples looking to turn a show into a weekend getaway
• Fans who prefer a quieter, suburban setting after the noise
• Budget-conscious music lovers who want value with comfort

Food and Drink Options

The hotel offers a daily buffet or continental breakfast, perfect for those recovering from a late night. While there’s no full-service restaurant on-site, guests can enjoy snacks and drinks from the 24/7 vending machines, or fire up the shared grill for a DIY meal. A variety of casual dining spots are just a short drive or delivery away.

Nightlife Options

While Staybridge Suites doesn’t offer its own nightlife, downtown Calgary’s bars, clubs, and lounges are a quick taxi or rideshare away. After the show, return to your suite’s cozy setup — or take a soak in the hot tub to wind down.

What People Say

Guests praise the hotel’s friendly multilingual staff, clean and spacious rooms, and overall value. Reviewers love the convenient location, especially being close to the airport and major highways, making trips to and from shows easy. The indoor pool and hot tub are often highlighted as great post-concert perks.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests note that the hotel’s décor is a bit dated in spots, and while the location is convenient, it’s not walkable to downtown venues — so plan for a rideshare or drive. Also, no on-site bar or restaurant means you'll need to explore nearby options for a full meal or nightcap.

The Bottom Line

Staybridge Suites - Calgary Airport is a stress-free, spacious, and affordable choice for concert-goers who want comfort and convenience without the downtown chaos.
