    Beautiful park. A nice place to relax with friends or by oneself. If you are a student, inside the library building is a nice place for studying. It's mostly quite, whispering is allowed.

    Beautifully decorated garden. Public washroom available. On the east side, Calgary Public Library resides in a historical building.

    I love this park. So beautifully landscaped and tended year round. Great little restaurant in the SW corner. The library is a historic sandstone building, complemented by statues and the cenotaph. I love it so much I married my wife there.

Where to stay in Calgary

South of the river is where most of the action happens in Calgary, and that's where you'll find the best selection of places to stay. Downtown, the central neighborhood located on the river's southern bank offers the widest range of choices, with access to several of the city's major metro stations a big plus. For arts, nightlife, and quality of living, go to The Beltine, known for its cafes, restaurants, arts, and entertainment. If you're just visiting the city briefly but want access to onward transport links, choose accommodations located close to the city's international airport.
