Union Bank Inn

Top choice in Edmonton


This posh boutique hotel on Jasper Ave, in a former bank building dating from 1910, is an upscale masterpiece. With just 40 rooms, the staff will be at your beck and call, and the in-room fireplaces make even Edmonton's frigid winters almost bearable. There's an equally fancy restaurant – Madison's Grill – on the ground floor.
