Unique Atmosphere!
The best part was the character of the place....it had a great vibe from the Blues on Whyte club downstairs. Was exactly what I expected.....great location to stay a night or two. Not a luxury resort but was a pleasant quick stay. Staff were great and check in /out was easy.

The rooms have been updated and there clean,they are small however its an older hotel. The carpet in the hallways needs to be replaced or a shampoo cleaning. Over all it was a nice experience.

We booked a room here because we wanted to check out some live music and didn't want to drive afterwards.
The room was small but clean. There were shared bathrooms and showers. No food service but, lots of options very close by.
The music was great and the staff was very friendly.
We live quite a ways out of town so, this worked out really well for us.
Would definitely do it again.

Heather and the security staff were most accomodating. They gave me a larger room with 2 twin beds while some plumbing repair was made on my original booked single room for one person. Adjacent to the renovated hotel was a great blues club -Blues On Whyte- which was a free access to Saturday afternoon jamming AND a free blues performance at night. Also - the access to the Whyte Ave. shopping district with a myriad of ethnic restaurants and shopping boutiques was a wonderful and walkable experience. I'm going back soon as I can...

The Commercial is an old heritage building that has been modernized inside. The furnishings are a bit bare bones, and this unit a fancy "luxury" place, but it has a lot of funky charm. The room was spotless, and the staff were all uniformly friendly and helpful. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay here again when visiting Edmonton's Old Strathcona district.
