Review from Nicole B.
Edmonton, AB
The Fantasyland Hotel is fun.
I'm going to be honest and say that it's also very cheesy, but I think we could all use a bit more cheese in our lives.
I love the Roman room. It's like a condensed Caesar's Palace. And the jacuzzi is amazing. We had a party here with a group of friends and it was a lot of fun. We fit quite a few people in that jacuzzi!
The theme rooms are all pretty cool and they make your stay a bit of an adventure.
The regular rooms at Fantasyland are pretty nice too. We had a party in one of them as well and it was actually really nice. And yes, I do other things than go to hotel parties. My cousins are too young to go to bars so they have hotel parties. And Fantasyland is a good place to have them! -
Review from Adam M.

I used the Fantasyland Hotel's banquet hall on a recent business trip. When I arrived at the hotel to set up the room, they had no knowledge of our reservation and insisted that we had placed the reservation for a week prior, on a different day. Now, while the banquet manager handled the situation well (he had the room set up and let us use it for our seminar) the whole experience was a little sour.
The staff seemed rushed and frantic - as though we were SEVERELY inconveniencing them. When I asked for an extension cord, the coordinator rolled her eyes at me. There was construction happening in the adjacent room, and it severely disrupted the presentation. And get this... when one of my participants went to the bathroom, the cleaning attendant told him he should use the urinal instead of the stall so he wouldn't have to clean up.
While my seminar was saved and everything worked out well, I don't think we'll be using the Fantasyland Banquet Halls anymore. -

My boyfriend shelled out $300 for us to stay here in the Roman themed room after a banquet a while back.
The Roman themed room has a circle bed and a jacuzzi. The bed was a little lumpy. The red carpet had a rough feel to it that made me cringe.
For $300 you can stay at one of the luxury hotels in Vegas. So I'm confused as to why he had to pay so much.
Anyways, my overall experience at the Fantasyland hotel was eh, alright. The themed rooms are a little cheesy, but I guess it's fitting for tourists. -
Review from kimberley s.

the executive room we had was a nice room. had a hot tub in the room and a nice comfortable king size bed. BUT they were servicing the hotel elevators and only 2 were working and at some points we ended up waiting over 14minutes for the elevator. the front desk attendant named sonny was excellent and very helpful and happy. but when i went to ask for a shower cap at the front desk the attendant that was working then rolled his eyes and acted irritated and when i stated there wasnt one in the room he said yes there is you just have to look for it. i thought that was quite rude. we will never pay that amount to stay in this hotel again. we got better service at the super 8. and on top of the 230 dollars a night we paid we had to pay for internet as well. 8.95 for a 24 hour period of time. ridiculous at that rate it should be included in your room cost. we only paid 120.00 at super 8 and the internet was free. we wont ever be staying at this hotel again.

The Fantasyland hotel is part of West Edmonton Mall and since the mall is probably our biggest attraction it is great for tourists. I think the name lets you know that this isn't a regular hotel.
They have tons of theme rooms here. They are all based on varying themes like Roman, Hawaiian and so on. I know a lot of people throw parties here because it's such a cool experience. Now if you don't have a wild imagination and need a regular room, they have those too.
To be honest though, I don't think the theme rooms would attract me if I didn't live here. -
Review from john-michael c.
this is attached to the mall....a hotel attached to the mall. i don't know why you'd want that but it's rather convenient if all you came to edmonton was the mall. i suppose there are outside activities.....but I'm not here for that. as sad as it is, i'd probably be here for the mall too.
last I checked the night life wasn't anything to write home about either
with that being said..things must be really bad for me to go all the way up there to check out their las vegas like mall attached hotel. I'm all for themed hotels despite how tacky they are - after all you're not there to live but to act out a certain....."fantasy" if you will.
now only if they had a sex suite.
but I guess the roman suite would be the closest they would have to it
mirrors and all
;D -
Review from Donna Y.
I stayed here before and its so much fun! Each level of the hotel is different theme rooms. So they got Rome, Victorian, Hawaiian, etc. It was so much fun staying here. I stayed in the Rome and Hawaiian level and I must say it was interesting. In Rome we had a huge hot tube in our room, there was mirrors everywhere even on the ceiling. Our bed was shape in a circle. In the Hawaiian room, they made the bed into like a boat and the hot tub has a waterfall. It was alot of fun and pretty cool. There is a tour you can take and they show you all the rooms. They even have an Igloo room. The bell hop thought we were crazy since we took the elevator to each floor just to see, because all the themes start once you get off the elevator. It was so much fun!

I don't know why, but most or all of my family member in Edmonton had some sort of party in their ballroom. I've only stayed here a couple of times so far. Some of the theme rooms look cool, whereas others look cheessy and seedy.

Review from Jennifer P.

Every Edmonton gal who grew up on Cinderalla stories has dreamt of staying at the Fantasyland Hotel in West Edmonton Mall. Which theme room would you choose? I always wanted to stay in the Roman room with sweeping veiled drapes, white pillars and a giant canopy bed. Then I grew up and realized it was kind of cheesy, like slow-dancing at school events with the principal watching or "fine-dining" at Red Lobster - still my partner and I decided to live out the fantasy just for kicks. So what would our theme be? The igloo room, or the girly suite with the heart-shaped tub? My persuasive powers won out, and we cracked a bottle of bubblies among the suds on our anniversary, then later examined our prune feet amid a scattering of rose petals. I'd never get married at the West Ed chapel or have my reception at a mall venue, as I've seen done before. But a novel night at the Fantasyland hotel - on any evening but my honeymoon - why the heck not? Hotel rooms cost so much, and they're usually quite boring and plain. At least this is a little more exciting for what you pay - over $250.
