Sawridge Inn & Conference Centre Edmonton South
Beautiful bar area, very clean and staff was kind and helpful, there were several sports teams in the building and zero noise heard from them at all. Rooms are a little dated but clean and great location.

Delta Hotels by Marriott Edmonton South Conference Centre
Reception staff was very friendly and helpful. We didn’t really use the amenities. One suggestion, as a senior, would’ve either a bath mat or slip resistant slips in the shower/tub. Personally, despite being in very good shape for my age, I was being very careful in the tub.

Travelodge by Wyndham Edmonton South
Easy parking. Nice staff. Definitely dated decor. Fan was a bit loud but worked. Room had a lingering smoke smell, but it was ground floor room near where people smoke outside.
