Centro Motel

I had such a great stay at Centro Motel! The hospitality here is top tier, everyone I met was incredibly kind, helpful, and genuinely caring. You can tell the staff actually take pride in making sure guests are comfortable and happy. It’s rare to find service this thoughtful these days! The rooms were super clean and cozy, and if I needed help or just had a random question, someone was always there with a smile, ready to help without hesitation. If you’re looking for a place that actually feels welcoming and not just transactional, Centro Motel is it. 10/10 would stay again 💯

We are visiting from out of province with our dog for a vet appointment. He's a bigger breed which can be challenging to find a hotel. I highly recommend Centro Motel for all pet owners. The rooms were clean and you can tell that the staff is very pet friendly! We had a great stay with our furry buddy and will definitely be back for future appointments. Also thank you to Ethan who checked us in. He was very welcoming and helped start our stay off on a high note!

Great location as it was quick and easy to get to Foothills Hospital. Dog friendly, green spaces for your dog, and they even provided a blanket just for her. Rooms were clean and comfortable. Staff was friendly and helpful. We would stay again.

I stay here all the time for work. Rooms are clean, water is soft, and staff is professional. When you see the rooms you can understand the star rating but there is nothing wrong here. A hidden gem that I worry may become too popular as time goes on and I am priced out haha. Keep up the good work guys, awesome place to stay!

Really nice, clean, spacious room. Nice sized shower. Very friendly and helpful with whatever your needs may be. Good location as well. Others complained about the road noise, it didn't bother us at all. Bed was comfy, plenty of pillows if you like to sleep with more than one. I recommend to anyone, especially for the price.

Wow! Absolutely great place. Amazing value. Clean, comfortable rooms. Super friendly staff. Rooms on a par or superior to some of the larger chain hotels I have stayed in. Highly recommend!

We all love Ethan- he was so nice to do check in- helped us and made it all easy and quick- there was also a early morning shift guy who was super nice too and gave me late night towels- all the service was with a smile . The rooms are a bit noisy clomp wise downstairs but they left earplugs for that . But had to take a star for that one. Honestly just a most pleased stay- thankyou so much ❤️

Stayed here for a night. Upon checking in I had to wait almost 15 minutes, if not more. They’ll say they checked their cameras and it was 2 mins. WRONG. I walked in. Waited. Walked out. Yelled. Walked in. Waited. Tried calling. Walked into the back room. Yelled. Walked into the employee area. Yelled. Waited. Walked out, finally a person was there and saw me and came in to check me in… does that sound like 2 mins??? |Showers are VERY tiny. Bathroom was crazy small. Bed was cozy. Room was clean. Upon checkout they charged me the next day for a $75 robe. They said I took one. WRONG. They’ll say I threatened negative reviews and a chargeback… correct. Here is another negative review. Shortly after this I’m doing a chargeback. Enjoy my $75. They say they have a triple verification system. Maybe they need a quadruple… because they made a mistake and think charging me $75 for a $20 Walmart robe (that I didn’t take) is a fair deal… what an insane place.

Booking a motel when coming from out of country can always be tricky. We were very happy at the cute little motel when we pulled in. The staff were great and gave us excellent dinner recommendations. The room is remodeled and while you can tell it used to be an older motel room, it is clean and quite adorable. I'd come back again at the great price!

Let's be honest; when I booked this motel room and told my husband where we were staying he got this look on his face like I screwed up. He grew up in this neighbourhood and always thought of this place as a hole. When we got here we were VERY delighted by all the renovations that had taken place. The rooms are clean, comfortable, remodelled well and have all your basic features. The staff has been tremendously helpful and friendly. I'm not saying this is a 5* resort but it's a great motel to crash in on your way to the mountains or in town for a rodeo or concert. Next door to a gas station, within walking distance to a subway and DQ and there's a coffee shop in sight.

We arrived in a heatwave, went to our room, and the door was already open. It's a motel, so the open door is kind of a security issue. We thought, well - let's make the best of it, then a really weak air conditioner made us change our mind. We were given another room, and the door would not close, click , nor lock. The staff member kept saying it worked before, - which is super, but that didn't fix the issue as we stood there melting. Overall, it's an alright place, a bit dinge-y, but for the price, I guess you get what you get right. The 1- star is for the staff actually following through and calling Expedia for us and getting us a complete refund. I was really glad he did that. Overall, mmmmmm.....don't do it.

This place is very good value for the price. The room has a modern feel, however materials used for updates were not the best quality and some things like paint and finishes were somewhat beaten up. The bathroom was clean and well kept, as well as the shower - looked brand new. The best part was the breakfast with fresh fruit such as apples and bananas, bagels, that were not stale, muffins, croissants, very tasty yogurt and organic orange juice. Again, incredible value for the cheapest motel in town.

So far so good. The staff is always helpful. Cleanroom upon arrival. Low noise for a budget motel. I paid a cash deposit for my room and have heard a few horror stories about getting a full refund. Things like a person got a comforter dirty (minus $25/day) little things like that. "They always seem to find something." I will find out in the morning. So far. I like it. Thank you for having me.

Love this place. The front desk was friendly, the rooms were clean and comfortable and it was a convenient location to get on the road in the morning to Banff. I didn't find the location sketchy at all and had no issues during my stay. Would definitely stay here again!

Recently redone late 70s motel. Clean. Was the only thing available during stampede and the price reflected that. Menh. Go or don't.

A bit disappointed as the room was pretty small and the bathroom even smaller. The beds were clean however the room sure could have used a vacuum for sure. The coffee maker did not work and when mentioned it to the maid she was aware and apparently it had been mentioned before. It was replaced the next day. It is an older motel and looked to be recently updated.

Room was very clean, and the front desk service was very quick and efficient. Each room seems to have air conditioning, which was needed during our one night passing through Calgary, and it worked well with the digital thermostat. The decor was nice and fresh, even if some of the furniture was starting to show a little wear and tear (just some minor scuffs, bumped edges and corners, etc.) The only issue with the room was the bathroom fan which was very loud, and was hardwired to the bathroom light, so there was no way to turn it off. (my phone's decibel metre measured it at over 50 dB.) We were travelling with our Border Collie, and they are very welcoming of pets. We were very happy with our stay, and will definitely come again.

The Centro Motel is located at the Trans Canada Highway (N°1) in a suburb of Calgary. We booked the motel via booking.com as we wanted to have a place which is not directly in the city but from which we can go into the centre via publuc transportaion. First we were surprised by the high rating whicfh is unusual for a motel but when we arrived we knew why. The place is more like a design hotel than a motel. The rooms are big, clean and well decorated. The staff was very friendly, helpful and nice all the time. The neighborhood seems safe, ok which neighborhood in Canada isn't :-) but it is located in a nice living area. The breakfast was included in the rate as well and was really good. We felt like home here and we had nothing to complain about. 5 star rating are more the appreciated here!

Picked this motel completely at random from Expedia, and I was pleasantly surprised with it. The room was large and extremely clean. The free wi-fi was a little spotty, but it still worked. Most of the time. There is a continental breakfast offered each day starting at 7:00, but I was out the door by then, so I wasn't able to partake. The location wasn't exactly the greatest; the motel is situated on a very busy street, so if you're a light sleeper, that may be a problem for you. Also, I noticed a number of sketchy looking folks wandering up and down the street, so if you're not an equally sketchy looking person like me, that might also be a concern for you. All told, though, I would absolutely consider staying here again.

I really hate that I can't check in online when I am in Canada (phone data doesn't work here for me). But on to the review...... The rooms are clean, large and open. They have all been updated. It was actually a very nice stay! The staff was very friendly :) Free wifi. Free breakfast. Free calls to Canada and USA. The only downside? A little farther from downtown then I wanted to be!

We stayed here on our way through going to revelstoke. This place is conveniently located to hwy 1 and a good value accommodation. Despite it being next to a major road the noise wasn't too bad. It looks to be recently renovated and while the contractor appears to need to learn how to measure their cuts and use a level better the rooms are nice. They also have a nice simple continental breakfast to get you on your way.

I used to love this place, I've stayed here a few times over the years. My last experience was not pleasant. The rooms were dirty, the staff was rude and I was not impressed. When I complained about hair on my bed and stains on my towel the management told me there was nothing they could do. I asked them to move me and they said they couldn't. They also couldn't get anyone to clean the room so they handed me some sheets and told me to change them myself. They also told me to leave the dirty towels outside of the door (in the morning they were will laying there) I will not return to this place.

These rooms are very nice and clean. Great price for the stay. A couple issues we ran into was our room door wasn't locked when we entered, bath robes were not there and the fridge never got cold even when turned to max.

I am usually scared off by this style of old walk-up motels, but this place has been very nicely updated, was clean, and great amenities (fridge, wifi, bathrobes). I didn't find it "sketchy" at all (as mentioned in another review). I liked the location - easy access to downtown and the NW. Staff were very friendly and helpful with driving directions! I would definitely stay here again.
