Centro Motel

I would give this hotel 10 stars if I could. The family and I were stuck and this place helped us out the best they could. It’s a budget hotel but a very nice budget motel. The gentlemen Lamin at the front desk was more than helpful. I am very grateful for this man’s help. The service was excellent and the rooms were very nice and clean.

Cute upgraded room-stayed passing through. Would benefit from new shower heads, at least 1 powerbar-all plugs were used so we had to unplug things to charge devices, more than 1 coffee each. Ethan was amazing at check in at 10pm. Oh and would be awesome to have AC fan on more than low setting.

Rooms are super nice for a motel. I was pleasantly surprised AND super stoked to see robes in the room! Shower felt good, great pressure and although on a busy street it’s quiet inside. I liked the price as it was just a place to sleep so not at all disappointed about not having breakfast. It’s a great little place and there is evidence they are doing upgrades to make it even better!

Avoid this place if you staying longer. The guy at the counter seems nice when you check in, but don't be fooled he'll let himself into your room if you step out if he gets any kind of weird feeling about you. Can't quite wrap my head around how someone judges a person from one brief interaction, but that was not cool… at least ask before you do.

I went there for a night on the 9th of January and I had a very comfortable stay. The room was big, everything organised, multiple instructions to guide you on how to use/what to use in the room, good Wi-Fi connection, and pet friendly. I had my kitten with me and it cost me 15 dollars I believe. Just have to let them know in advance about your pet when you book the room over a call. I also got some food ordered and it was delivered to the room.

Service here is outstanding, super helpful and very easy to deal with.
I arrived late and was welcomed by a member of their staff, 24hr desk made me feel secure and comfortable. I was unsure of how long stay would be and they my additional days, gave options on floors (stay on the 2nd floor) and was attentive to any issues I had.
Great prices, clean rooms, decent beds and decor is not offensive 😀
Boutique Motel yup yup yup.

I really enjoyed my stay at Centro Motel. From check-in to check — out, the experience was smooth and welcoming. The room was clean, comfortable, and well maintained.
The staff were kind and attentive, always ready to help with a smile. The location was convenient and easy to get around.
Overall, I would happily recommend this hotel to friends and family.

I stayed at Metro for my grandson's hockey tournament at the Olympic Arena. I chose Centro because it's a 5 min drive to the arena.
This Motel is a GEM! the pictures don't do it justice. It's roomy and very clean. I absolutely LOVED the fluffy robes, that's something even pricey hotels don't offer! Even though the Motel is on a busy road, it wasn't noisy at night — I slept very well! AND there's a Keurig in the room! That was super nice to have coffee without having to go out and get it. Super thoughtful idea! There are lots of restaurants nearby, within walking distance. The parking is super convenient, I was able to park right in front of my motel door. The motel staff are very friendly, this is just a super little hidden gem in Calgary! I'll definitely stay here again! AND you absolutely cannot beat the price! Fantastic value!

Very friendly staff/great spacious room and comfy beds. Only issue is that the heat/ac is not continuous and could use some updating. As well as the soundproofing that some others have mentioned. I requested a second floor room which I got but I still heard my neighbours clapping cheeks at all hours, sometimes as late as 2am — 3/4 of the nights I was there🤪 Not to mention I felt terrible for my neighbours downstairs anytime I would walk around — painfully squeaky floors. I loved everything else though! I would still consider coming back on my next Calgary trip🫶🏼

We recently stayed here to go to the tattoo convention and were pleasantly surprised for a motel! although it’s an older building and has a few scrapes and bumps everything was very very clean, the staff was amazing and thoughtful. It’s the first hotel i’ve stayed at where they call the room after you’ve settled to ask if you need anything and if everything is up to standard! The location of the motel is near a busy road so of course there’s a bit of noise but they set out earplugs for us even though we didn’t end up using them.
Would definitely stay here again for our future Calgary trips!

Great rooms, perfect check-in, super clean, comfy annnnnnnd the worst acoustic stay of my life. The walls are thinner than paper. The construction is wood and it’s old creaky wood so you hear every step, every word, every truck. The place is perfect except for the absolutely intolerable noise that will definitely happen around the clock as it is right now. There is not a chance I will return at any price.

I am giving this motel five stars not because it is five star accommodation — it is a budget motel after all — but because it is a great budget motel. Everything from booking to checkout gave the impression that the staff truly cares about their guests' comfort. I phoned the motel directly and got a discount off the internet price (sorry, Ethan, maybe I shouldn't let everyone in on your offering! ). Shortly after settling in, we got a call to make sure everything was okay. There were robes on the bed just like in a fancier hotel and they had clean rags available so clients didn't mess up the towels wiping mud off their shoes — great idea! We were in Calgary to visit family so we only needed a place to sleep at the end of the day. Why spend extra money for amenities you won't use? The renovated room was clean, the bed was comfortable, and the pillow selection insured a good night's sleep. They even had earplugs beside the bed for guests who might be bothered by noise from the Trans Canada highway. We didn't need them. The parking stalls near the office were powered so I could charge my EV overnight. Nice! What really clinches the 5 star review though is that I arrived home to an email saying that housekeeping had found my phone charger (I hadn't yet noticed it was missing) and they went out if their way to get it back to me. This is a small motel with a big, big heart.

Friendly helpful staff, clean rooms, that's about it.
It's a motel, but one of the nicer ones I have stayed at. Rooms are clean and serviceable but lots of old building issues. Extremely extremely very loud, you will hear every footstep, cough, TV noise. My bed actually shook in the middle of the night with the vibrations from people walking around/closing doors. The floors feel like they are going to collapse at any moment from the amount of creaking and bending they do. I thought somebody broke in at first.
Needs renovations badly, lots of minor inconveniences/grossness, but again, it's a motel.

This isn't your average motel. The service is first class and the amenities are thoughtful (when is the last time you saw bathrobes in a motel room? And they have a cute display of clean white rags for you to use if you have a spill or anything you want to clean up. So smart! ). We stayed here for one night to visit my cousin on our way to Canmore and were lucky enough to get the last room on the main floor because my husband can't climb stairs. Both staff members I spoke to were smiling and friendly and so very welcoming. The person who took my reservation was very detailed and efficient, even reading back the information I had given him to make sure it was correct.
The separate toilet and shower area is spacious, and the sink area has plenty of countertop for your toilettries. We did find the toilet paper holder to be rather far from the toilet (all rooms may not have the same layout). The air conditioner came on during the night which did wake me because I can be a light sleeper so I just used the earplugs that they provided on the bedside and I wasn't bothered anymore that night.
I highly recommend this charming Motel. And the location of it on a quiet section of the highway in town was convenient for us to head to Canmore the next day.

Smiling staff, genuinely happy to see you and concerned if everything is ok for you. They provide 2 pairs or earplugs because the street is noisy, place is not soundproofed and the fridge is noisy too. They provided a pet blanket, such a cute and nice attention. Was 25$ if you wanted to buy it, my cat loved it, but was too expensive for me, would have bought it max 10$. Clean room. Smell of body wash was very masculine; a more neutral or fresh scent would have been nicer.

A great little place to stay. Excellent front desk service. Rooms were clean and modern with extras I didnt use but would be good for those that do. Iron, ironing board. Rooms were quiet and had a great sleep.

We booked it sort of last minute and they had the best price. We were so impressed with how clean everything was! Had been a long time since we've seen a lodge this clean. The accommodations are really good and comfy. It's very quiet, despite being right by the highway. Staf is amazing, very kind, patient and helpful. Chris helped us check in and he was incredibly nice. Definitely recommended!
