Luxury Hotel in Edmonton

Check into the historic Union Bank Inn (10053 Jasper Avenue, 1-888-423-3601) for an elegant stay. Along with sleeping in a classic movie star-themed room, like Monroe or Bogart, or choosing a contemporary-style room with sleek décor, you’ll be treated like a star for the entire vacation. From the front desk and housekeeping staff to restaurant and banquet personnel, you’ll definitely feel like a VIP.

This 4 ½ star boutique hotel offers European design in the heart of Edmonton. Recline in the period furnishings and chat about life while sipping complimentary wine and appies each evening. Coming back to the hotel after the spa treatments is a pleasure, as the graceful interior reminds you of the grand style of a time gone by. Just past the lobby is Madison’s Grill, a great place to catch up over delicious cuisine and where the complimentary breakfast is served. If you just can’t decide what you’re in the mood for, try the European-style “Menu Supris,” a six-course meal that is unknown until it arrives on your plate.

Once you’re ready for your spa treatment, walk two blocks to the City Centre mall and up to the second floor EvelineCharles spa (244 Edmonton City Centre, 780-424-5666). Edmonton is where this popular salon began, so make sure you have a reservation. Services run the gamut from massages and body scrubs to haircuts and manicures. This is the place to go for individual treatment in an ultra modern setting.

If your group wants a more social atmosphere, almost kitty corner to the Union Bank Inn is Studio J (10014 Jasper Avenue, 780-425-6555). Rumour has it that this is the hottest new spa on Jasper Avenue. Jillian Kaliel, the owner, moved to this location at the beginning of the year and is still customizing the interior with special touches. Groups can get manicures and pedicures together, all seated beside one another like in the Sex and the City episode- perfect for a girlfriend getaway.
