Best Family-Friendly Hotels in Calgary
Calgary is the perfect launchpad for Rocky Mountain family adventures, and the city itself has plenty to offer kids — from the Calgary Zoo and TELUS Spark Science Centre to Heritage Park and the vibrant East Village. Whether you're headed to Banff or exploring cowtown, you need a great home base.
Family-friendly hotels in Calgary often feature indoor pools (essential for Alberta winters), complimentary parking, and easy highway access for day trips to the mountains. Downtown hotels put you near the +15 walkway system, which is a godsend for navigating with kids in cold weather.
WeeTravel delivers baby gear throughout Calgary and even to Banff-area hotels. Car seats, strollers, cribs — we'll have everything waiting at your hotel so you can skip the hassle of checking oversized luggage at the airport.
