This budget-friendly timeframe allows visitors to appreciate the urban architecture, towering skyscrapers, theatres, and scenic rivers, as well as enjoy the city's natural parks and vibrant entertainment scene, including hockey games. Travelling in these months could provide great value for money, as prices may drop even further.
  2. Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: To uncover last-minute deals to Calgary, visit the DealsOpens in a new window or Last-Minute Deals sections on Hotels.com, where you may discover discounted hotel rates as your travel date approaches. By enabling email alerts or push notifications, you could find out about flash sales and special promotions, helping you stay informed about potential savings. Additionally, the Smart Shopping feature on the app allows you to compare hotel prices and amenities, ensuring you get the best value. This means you might be among the first to know if prices drop or new rooms become available, making it easier to secure your last-minute escape.
  3. Be flexible with dates: Prices may fluctuate depending on factors such as the hotel's location, star rating, and the time of year. Therefore, being flexible with your travel dates could mean you may save on your stay in a Calgary hotel.
