بست ويسترن بلس ريد دير إن آند سويتس

Comfortable stay. Clean room. Nice front desk people. Check in and out was easy and fast.

This was a nice nights getaway for a couple of old folks. We were very disappointed that the hot tub was closed down. We wish they had mentioned that when we made the reservation. Regardless, it was very nice to get away from Edmonton for a small break! We also appreciated the upgraded room with a king bed.

I am writing in regards my hotel stay on Dec. 24, 2024. When Best Western had reached out after my stay initially, I had left a good review because there had been no problems with the room, and the staff had been friendly. I didn't notice my problem until several days later. At check-in, I presented a $150 gift card, which would cover the majority of our stay. I was told they would still need to pre-authorization the total of $174.75 on my card. This did not seem unreasonable so I went ahead and did so. Upon check out I was told my total after gift card was $24.75 and that it would be taken out of my pre-authorization. I was emailed a receipt showing the night's balance, the use of my gift card and the $24.75 being charged to my card including the last 4 digits of the card number. Several days later I noticed that I neither saw the release of my funds or the final charge of $24.75 on my account. I contacted the hotel but was reassured that it can take up to 14 days for the bank to release a pre-authorization hold. That had not been my experience in the past, so I contacted my bank to inquire further. My bank informed me that no pre-authorization was done on Dec. 24, it had been a pos sale for $174.75, so there was nothing on their side holding back funds. I immediately called the hotel back and was told "That's not what the system shows so I'll have to escalate this to a manager" I was told to expect a call from the manager the next day. Hoping to resolve the issue quickly. I called the hotel the next day at 11:30 am, hoping that by contacting them after check out they would be free to offer assistance. The phone rang 8+ times before I gave up. I called back again at 3:30 pm hoping again that calling prior to check in I would be able to get through to someone. This time me the phone rang even longer but I was resolute to wait until someone answered. When the phone was finally answered I had the worst interaction I've experienced yet. The woman I spoke to on the phone told me that the system didn't match my story. That she wasn't sure if the manager had been in at all that day, because she has been sick the previous day and that she couldn't help me. If I wanted someone to help me I'd have to call between 8:00 am and 4:00 pm the next day when a manager *might* be in to assist me. At this point beyond frustrated I left a 1 star review on Google explaining the situation. Within hours, I received a response from the manager saying that they were on vacation but were working on my issue while they were away. This has been the only contact I have received up until this point. This morning when I went to check my bank account I found another charge from the hotel for $24.75, which at no point had I authorized. Where we stand right now the hotel has charged be $199.50 directly, and taken and charged a $150 gift card. Meaning this hotel has taken $349.50 from me for a one night stay. To say I am upset about this is an understatement.

A restaurant such as in Leduc is a great “plus” especially in that locationp

My husband and I enjoyed this short road trip from Edmonton to Red Deer and were able to relax in the hot tub which we had to ourselves the whole evening. We also tried our luck at the nearby ******, but that was definitely a downer. We also explored the downtown area, and found an interesting thrift store where we made a couple of purchases.

Comfortable and clean. No issues with our stay
