Friendly staff and great location! Laundry services on site is most welcomed. Near all major amenities! Chinook shopping centre just down the road. Excellent assortment of eateries just across the street. Ballpark with trail is only a couple minute walk south on Macleod. Great if your into running!

Stay of 9 nites end of February 2013. Payed in advanced at home. Correct stay, just essentials. Ok location. Minimum service. A week after return home, rebilled with 200$ extra with no comment what so ever. Recalled extra payment through VISA. Nothing yet. No explanation from Eco Lodge South Calgary.

This is an older hotel/motel but clean and pleasant. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The rooms we stayed in were very comfortable, clean and bright. They have a continental breakfast, I enyoyed the waffles. The location is just a few minutes from the Chinook Mall and our favorite restaurant - Red Lobster.

Stayed at the Econo Lodge South Calgary with a friend for a concert at the Saddledome. For starters this hotel still has smoking rooms, which was very apparent as you could smell cigarette smoke in the building. The lobby was poorly lit and outdated, and we had to use the stairs to haul our luggage up to our room on... More

April 24th & 25th I stayed at Econo Lodge South Calgary while on a business trip. The only reason I booked here instead of the fancy hotel the conference I was attending, is this is one of the few hotels/motels in the area that I needed to be close to, that still have a few “Smoking” rooms available. The Econo... More

Stayed here as part of a group. The entire hotel is in need of a huge update. The decor, furnishings and the mattresses are in horrible condition. The room did have a large flat screen TV but that did not make up for the discomfort of the beds and sense that things were not fully clean. A very old bed... More

This place was overall a pretty decent place to stay, the rate was fair and it was a comfy. Nice little pool and hot tube, decent breakfast. I will stay there again in the future. They allowed us to have our pet stay as well which is always nice.

Booked my stay on Hotwire (First and Last time) to see if it actually worked. When I arrived I was informed that I had been booked into a smoking room as part of the Hotwire agreement that the hotel can put me in one of their closets if they want (apparently). At the time of my arrival there was absolutely... More
