Not Just on Whyte. Part of It.

From Fringe Festival stages to farmers’ markets, late-night jazz to alleyway murals - Old Strathcona is alive with creativity and character. It’s not just a neighbourhood you visit. It’s one you experience. 

Wake up steps from pop-ups, pour-overs, and impromptu street performances. We’ll point you to the bookstore that serves bourbon, the speakeasy behind the record shop, and the best back lane for mural-spotting.

Ampersand 27: Alberta Flavour, Global Twist

Where Alberta-grown ingredients meet bold, worldly flavours - and the gin flows just right. 

Start with a pre-show cocktail or wind down after a meeting. Stay for the share plates, linger for the conversation. As night falls, the lights dim, the mood shifts, and Whyte Ave hums just outside.

The location is perfect 

There’s nothing to complain about this hotel here on Whyte Avenue in Edmonton. The location is perfect with everything within walking distance. No shortage of restaurants and shops to keep your entertained. Heck even downtown if you’re willing to walk is only like 30 minutes away. Just cross the high level bridge. The hotel itself was clean and quiet, and the staff was friendly and personable. I would definitely return here on my next visit to Edmonton.

A Gem of a Hotel

This is a gem of a hotel. The staff could not have been more helpful and arranged at my request a kettle and a microwave for my room. The staff were easy to reach and just excellent. I could open a window in the room and also completely control the temperature of the room. It was very clean and had everything I needed. It is within a block of several restaurants. I will definitely stay here again when in Edmonton.
