Just thought I'd post a short review from my recent stay as there isn't a thread for this property on the SPG FT forum.

The area is not that close to the airport but, from my understanding, no other Starwood properties really are due to construction and road diversions. The hotel is about a $30+tip cab ride (rip off) from the airport and it takes about 15-20 minutes during busy traffic periods and 10-15 minutes during quieter times.

The hotel lobby appears to have been renovated and looks quite new. The staff are excellent and very friendly. The recognized SPG status readily and I got a nice upgrade to a one-bedroom suite on the 7th floor. The Sheraton Lounge is on the 8th floor.

The room looks relatively updated with the standard Sheraton Sweet Sleeper bed and a flat screen TV in the bedroom and another one in the living room/sitting area. The bathroom has an oversized bathtub/shower combination and is in a very clean white.

All in all, I was quite impressed with the property especially given its age. The biggest drawback was the cab fare but that has nothing to do with the hotel. There is an airport shuttle but it does not run too frequently and only "on demand" during off-peak hours making a cab your only option in Uber-free/unfriendly Calgary. (Side note: it's comical that cities like Calgary and Vancouver like to think of themselves as tech-friendly/progressive cities and yet they're the loudest to scream when an innovative and monopoly-disrupting service like Uber starts up).

I had dinner at Carver's which is the hotel steak house. It has been upgraded and SPG members earn 500 point bonus when spending over $50 at the restaurant from Mon to Thu. Pretty easy given the pricing on the steaks! The meal was very good and it was quite nice not having to venture out for a decent meal.
