One of the most defining elements of a boutique hotel designed for extended stays is the kitchen. If a hotel in this market doesn't have rooms equipped with full kitchens, it can't really make the claim that it is a comfortable place to live for an extended period of time. Luckily all of the properties run by O Hotel Suites have these amenities, but the flip side of the coin is that when staying in a new city it's important to get out of the apartment and get a taste of the local gastro-culture. So, to answer the perennial question that every hotel employee is faced with on a near-constant basis (Where's a good place to eat?), I've composed the following guide to help visitors to Calgary get out and sample the best this city has to offer.
The first thing to determine when looking for a place to eat is what KIND of food you are in the mood for. What sort of restaurant do you want to go to? To streamline this process I've organised this guide by restaurant and food type, with the best example of each. Fancy First up is fancy restaurants. For a chic, trendy and above all discerning palate the best choice in the city of Calgary is Muse in Kensington. Muse is located at 107 10A St NW, in the heart of the trendy Kensington district. The restaurant serves a somewhat eclectic mix of French and Canadian cuisine, for a look at their menu head to muserestaurant.ca where you can also make reservations.. Fancy-But-Maybe-Not-Too-Fancy
If you're in the mood for fancy, but maybe not too fancy there are a number of good choices in the city. The Gypsy Wine Bar and Lounge is easily the best of the lot, though. Especially for lunch. The ambience is relaxed and low-key and the Mediterranean style menu is full of delicious and intriguing items. My personal favourite is the lamb and dried cranberry burger
