Other hotels on Whyte Ave are almost as convenient (but often more expensive)

A budget friendly offering on Campus is the University Hotel, but the reservation process is more complicated and the rooms are very basic

Getting here:

  • Uber, Taxis (~$65/trip) or the hotel shuttle ($18/trip) will bring you from the airport to downtown or the University area. There is also a bus (line 747) but it requires $5 cash and runs only once per hour. The bus drops you off at the southern LRT station from where the LRT will take you to the University or downtown.
