Experiences

Engage your pioneering spirit in downtown Calgary. Framed by snow-capped mountains, the city of Calgary is known as the gateway to the Rockies. The Westin Calgary is located in the heart of its thriving downtown sector with countless shops, restaurants, and museums just steps away. View it all at the Calgary Tower, offering spectacular 360-degree views. If sky-high wonders don’t captivate your spirit, seek out retail therapy and discover an endless array of shops at the CORE Shopping Centre, directly adjacent to our Calgary hotel with a pool. Browse the aisles at Holt Renfrew, The Bay, and Harry Rosen, or head to the Cactus Club or restaurants on Stephen Avenue for a bite to eat. Enjoy a show or sporting event at Scotiabank Saddledome or take in the exhibits at the Glenbow Museum or Telus Science Centre. If you're looking for fresh air and lush botanicals, head over to Prince’s Island Park for a picnic. Young children will delight in the exotic animals on display at the Calgary Zoo.
