Review: The Dorian Calgary, Marriott Autograph Collection

The Dorian Calgary is a boutique hotel located in downtown Calgary. The hotel is a new addition to Marriott’s Autograph Collection portfolio, having recently opened in July 2022.

I stayed at the Dorian during a recent brief overnight stay in Calgary. I was especially keen to try out this new property, since not only was it brand new, but it also looked very impressive from the pictures.

The Dorian Calgary – Booking

On average, you can expect to pay $250–350 (CAD) per night here at The Dorian. I secured a rate towards the lower end of that range.

For those who enjoy shopping, The CORE shopping centre is conveniently a few blocks away and just a seven-minute stroll from the property.

Popular destinations within Calgary, such as the Calgary Tower and Studio Bell, are within a 15- and 20-minute journey by foot, respectively. Meanwhile, Princes Island Park and the Calgary Zoo are a short drive away for those who enjoy a bit of nature while staying in the city.

Lastly, the Calgary International Airport is a 20-minute ride by car or rideshare for those travelling to or from the airport, although it…
