The Most Expensive Hotels In Edmonton
Visiting Edmonton and wondering where you can rest your head in complete luxury? Wonder no more!
Here are the top 12 luxury hotels in Edmonton, from least to most expensive.
1. The Chateau Lacombe
Address: 10111 Bellamy Hill Rd NW, Edmonton
Price: $139 - $154
Best for: Solo travellers, couples
The Chateau Lacombe Hotel is probably best known for its revolving restaurant, LaRonde, but this Edmonton hotel has much more to offer than pretty views of the city and the Saskatchewan River.
If you want to live in real luxury, you should book the Concierge Floor Executive Suite. This Suite has a king bed, full living room, and dining room.
Apart from the famous LaRonde restaurant, guests can also indulge at Cafe Lacombe or Bellamy's Lounge.
The hotel is within walking distance from the Arts District, as well as the Louise McKinney Riverfront Park - if you want to step away from the bustle and unwind on the sprawling lawns.
2. Sandman Signature Edmonton South Hotel
Address: 10111 Ellerslie Rd SW, Edmonton
Price: $133 - $185
Best for: Short stays and couples
If you are looking for luxury hotels near the Edmonton International Airport (without staying at the airport itself), the Sandman Signature Edmonton South Hotel is a perfect choice.
You will immediately get that home-away-from-home feeling (if your home happens to be an amazing establishment with room service and every amenity you can dream of).
Do you want to have a date night without straying too far? The on-site Chop Steakhouse & Bar is the perfect destination. Not in the mood for romance? No worries - Bar One has amazing pub grub, and you can watch the latest game.
The rooms are comfortable and perfect for both leisure and business travellers. To really enjoy the ultimate stay, the Jacuzzi Suite is a must, with an en-suite bathroom featuring a Jacuzzi tub (who would have thought?)!
The hotel also offers free private parking for all their guests.
There is plenty to do around the hotel as well. With the Fort Edmonton Park just 15 minutes away, and some of the most expensive restaurants in Edmonton within walking distance, you’ll be spoiled for choice.
3. Courtyard by Marriott Edmonton Downtown
Address: One Thornton Court 99 Street And, Jasper Ave, Edmonton
Price: $161 - $224 per night
Best for: Anyone
Neighbour to the Fairmont Hotel MacDonald (number 12 on our list), the Courtyard by Marriott in Downtown Edmonton offers many of the same luxuries and views but for a slightly more affordable price.
But that doesn't mean it is not one of the best luxury hotels in Edmonton!
Rooms are simple and stylish, with crisp white linen bedding, mini-fridges, free WiFi and lots of natural light. The One Bedroom Executive Suite is perfect for families travelling in style, and includes two Queen Beds and a sleeper sofa. For your comfort, there are fluffy robes and slippers, as well as a Keurig coffee maker to start every morning on the right foot.
Grab a bite to eat at the on-site restaurant, Riverside Bistro, for unparalleled views of the Saskatchewan River.
This downtown Edmonton hotel is perfectly located, with the ICE district just five minutes away. If you want to do some proper shopping, the West Edmonton Mall is 20 minutes away.
4. The Matrix Hotel

Our favourite room in the hotel is the Onyx Suite, which features a fireplace, a granite-counter kitchen, a full dining room suite, and custom chrome finishes.
Feel like a VIP when you grab breakfast or dinner at Loft106 or opt for comfort food in Envie Restaurant, located in the lobby.

Address: 16615 109 Ave NW, Edmonton
Price: $167 - $321
Best for: Couples
There are two DoubleTree by Hilton hotels in Edmonton, but we are going to focus on the West Edmonton DoubleTree, as it is the more expensive of the two.
Of course, it is not only price that matters. Amenities and rooms do too!
When you leave the comfort of your Guest Room or Suite, you will find a lovely indoor pool and indoor gym to keep you occupied. There is also the amazing DT Stages Kitchen, where you can enjoy the local cuisine.
Are you looking for some entertainment while you dine? This Edmonton hotel features the renowned Mayfield Dinner Theater for the perfect night in! And, if you want to go exploring, the largest mall in North America - the West Edmonton Mall - is just 10 minutes away.

Our room of choice is the King Suite. It features a king-size bed, a separate living room, soft bathrobes and an Illy coffee service.

Unique art meets textured walls and gorgeous colours in the Metterra Hotel on Whyte Avenue. This decor extends to the rooms, where you will find dark wood furnishings, granite counters, floor-to-ceiling windows and plush bedding.
Although the Metterra Hotel does not have a restaurant, its sister hotel, Varscona on Whyte, is just a few steps away and hosts the classic Ampersand27 restaurant.
What makes this hotel different than many other luxury hotels in Edmonton is that you are allowed two pets per guest room, so your furry pal can also get to enjoy Metterra Hotel.
Just like its sister, the Metterra Hotel is about 25 minutes from Edmonton International Airport, making it great for international travellers.
8. Coast Edmonton Plaza Hotel by APA
Address: 10155 105 St NW, Edmonton

Speaking of rooms - bet you never thought you could visit the West Edmonton Mall and sleep in a Gothic Princess Room, a Luxury Space Room, or a Pirate Room complete with a pirate ship!
