Calgary Historic Bed and Breakfast at
Twin Gables

Welcome to the Calgary Historic Bed and Breakfast at Twin Gables, Calgary's only registered historic bed and breakfast.

Built in 1910 and rated 5 Stars by Canada Select, this fully restored Inner City historic bed and breakfast home maintains the romance of a bygone age. The elegance and richness of the past is alive with leaded stained glass windows, hardwood floors, Tiffany lamps, pocket doors, and antique furnishings. Walk to Downtown Business Center, Telus Convention Centre, or Stampede Park.

As you enter, you will be overwhelmed by the use of wood built into the design of this classic period home, in which the ambiance of the Arts and Crafts movement is reflected in every aspect. Run your hand over the fine woodwork and massive wainscoting, and view the area through leaded glass and beveled windows. The parlor is the perfect place to relax in front of the fireplace with a good book from the library, or enjoy conversations with other guests. You can also watch television in the living room, or enjoy a cup of tea in the solarium by the fountain over looking the gardens and city views.

Unlike a large hotel, Twin Gables Bed and Breakfast gives you a private entrance to gracious suites, tastefully decorated and functional for today's lifestyle. Three executive-style guest suites offer stunning city views and all the comforts of home and then some. Comfortable beds, fine linens, down duvets, antique furniture, and wardrobes are accompanied by convenient amenities - off-street parking, private in-room bathrooms, telephones, stocked refrigerators, television, VCRs, computers, high-speed data ports, personal care items, and air conditioning.

Start the day with a delicious full breakfast served in the dining room or the sunny solarium, or you can enjoy a generous continental breakfast in the comfort of your private suite with the daily newspaper. Sample a plate of sumptuous Belgian waffles, Eggs Benedict, or a specialty omelet, complemented with homemade breads and other baked goods, yogurt, a selection of cereals, and some freshly squeezed orange juice. A beverage and snack center is also available.

Across from the Elbow River with miles of pathways leading to parks and attractions, the Inn is an ideal home base from which to hike, bike, and explore the area.

Terrific Calgary shopping and fine dining on trendy 4th Street is just a few minutes away from the inn, and the Calgary Stampede Grounds are just a 12-minute walk away. The Great Rocky Mountains and the natural glories of beautiful Banff National Park, just 75 miles from the Inn, make for a wonderful day trip.

Experience the very best of Calgary Historic Bed and Breakfast at Twin Gables, a fully functioning Bed and Breakfast which offers a perfect blend of historical authenticity and modern luxury... and it's all in downtown Calgary, Alberta.
