We stayed at the Metterra on Whyte because it’s one of the best hotels I’ve ever stayed in. The staff were awesome, the room was clean and quiet, and the service was beyond my expectations. I would definitely recommend this hotel to all my friends and family!!

Just stayed an overnighter in an average 2x double room. The room was equipped with a mini-bar which included rye, rum, vodka, gin, red wine and a couple of craft beers. There were also interesting snack items and Illy coffee with real creamers as opposed to your typical power cream. All that and a soaker tub made for just what I needed. The superb room service appys of scallops, samosas and brie was a wonderful topper.
