The Service Plus Inns & Suites Family Adventure Package
A budget-friendly, no-frills Calgary stay built around getting your family out the door and into the attractions faster.
Why families choose Service Plus Inns & Suites
Practical, affordable, and close to the action
Not every family trip needs a resort-style hotel — sometimes what a family actually wants is a clean, comfortable, affordable room that lets them spend their travel budget on the things that matter: zoo tickets, go-kart laps, and ice cream after dinner. That’s the thinking behind the Service Plus Inns & Suites Family Adventure Package.
Service Plus Inns & Suites keeps things simple. Rooms are straightforward and well-kept, without the added cost of amenities many families with young kids don’t use anyway. That savings gets redirected into the part of the trip that actually creates memories: more attractions, more days, or simply a lower total bill for the whole trip.
Like the other Calgary Adventure packages, this one bundles your hotel stay with a selection of the city’s top family attractions into a single, easy booking. You’re not juggling five separate confirmation emails and five separate payment charges — it’s one package, built around the attractions you actually want to visit.
This option tends to appeal most to families on a multi-stop Alberta road trip — Calgary is often one leg of a longer route that might include Banff, Canmore, or the Badlands near Drumheller — where the smarter move is to spend less on the hotel and more on experiences unique to each stop.
What’s included in the stay
No-nonsense comfort at a fair price
Straightforward, clean rooms
Comfortable rooms without the markup of resort-style extras — a smart fit for families who mostly use the room to sleep and reset between outings.
Budget-conscious pricing
More of your travel budget goes toward attraction tickets and activities rather than hotel amenities you may not use.
Easy access around the city
A practical home base for reaching Calgary’s spread-out attractions without a long commute each morning.
Package simplicity
One booking, one price, one confirmation — hotel and attractions bundled together instead of arranged separately.
Attractions you can pair with this stay
This package works well for families who want to hit several attractions across a few days without overspending on any single piece of the trip.
- Calgary Zoo A full day of walk-through habitats and animal exhibits suited to every age group.
- Calaway Park Western Canada’s largest outdoor family amusement park, best planned as a full day.
- Mini Golf & Arcade A shorter, lower-cost outing that’s easy to slot into a half-day.
- Monster A high-energy attraction stop for families with older kids looking for something bigger.
- Trampoline Park An indoor option that works rain or shine, and burns off a lot of extra energy fast.
- Indigenous Attractions Cultural and historical experiences that add depth to a Calgary visit beyond rides and animals.
- Shopping Gift Card A flexible add-on for families who want a free afternoon to shop rather than book a fixed activity.
A sample four-night itinerary
A budget-minded pace that still covers a lot of ground
Arrival, light unpacking, Mini Golf & Arcade in the evening
An easy first evening after a travel day — low-key, indoors, and forgiving of a late check-in.
Calgary Zoo, full day
Give the zoo the time it deserves — most families spend four to six hours moving through the habitats at a relaxed pace.
Calaway Park, full day
The bigger-ticket day of the trip. Arrive early to make the most of ride time before the afternoon crowds build.
Trampoline Park in the morning, free shopping afternoon
Close the trip with an energetic morning followed by an unstructured afternoon using the shopping gift card add-on.
Who this package suits best
Matching the stay to your family
Families on a longer Alberta road trip often use this package as the affordable Calgary leg of a bigger itinerary that also includes the mountains or badlands, where hotel spending is spread thin across multiple stops.
Larger families booking multiple rooms benefit the most from the lower nightly rate, since the savings multiply across each additional room booked.
Families prioritizing experiences over amenities tend to prefer this option — if the plan is to be out at attractions from morning until evening every day, an elaborate hotel matters less.
First-time Calgary visitors on a set budget can use the savings here to add an extra attraction or an extra night that a pricier hotel wouldn’t have allowed.
Frequently asked questions
What families usually want to know before booking
Is this package worth it for families staying just two nights?
Yes — even a two-night stay comfortably covers two full attraction visits, such as the Calgary Zoo and Calaway Park, without feeling rushed.
How does the shopping gift card add-on work?
It’s built into the package as a flexible credit, giving your family a free afternoon without a fixed itinerary — useful for a lighter day between bigger outings.
Can we combine this package with a longer Alberta road trip?
Absolutely — many families use this as the Calgary portion of a wider trip that includes Banff, Canmore, or Drumheller, since it keeps the hotel budget lean.
Are attractions booked for specific days, or are we flexible?
Let us know your planned attractions and approximate days when booking, and the package will be arranged around that schedule.
Getting the most value out of this package
A few ways families stretch the savings further
The biggest lever families pull with this package is simply choosing a longer stay. Because the nightly rate is lower than a full-service hotel, an extra night or two often costs less overall than a shorter stay at a pricier property — and that extra time usually translates into one more attraction visited without feeling rushed.
Booking multiple rooms works the same way. Larger families or two families traveling together tend to see the savings add up fastest here, since the per-room discount applies across every room in the group booking rather than just the first.
Another common approach is front-loading the bigger, full-day attractions — the Calgary Zoo and Calaway Park — earlier in the trip, then using the shopping gift card and Mini Golf & Arcade as lighter, lower-cost days toward the end when everyone’s a bit more tired and less inclined to do another full day on their feet.
Because this package is often booked as one stop on a longer Alberta itinerary, some families also use the savings here to justify an extra night in Banff or Canmore later in the trip — treating the Calgary leg as the practical, cost-conscious stretch of a bigger vacation.
Best time of year to book
Like our other packages, this one runs on Calgary’s late-spring through early-fall attraction season. A few timing notes specific to a budget-focused trip:
- Late May and June The best window for value — lower demand generally means more room availability at this price point.
- July and August Peak season across the city. Rooms at this hotel still tend to book up, especially on weekends, so reserve a few weeks out.
- Early September A strong option for families traveling after school schedules loosen, with attractions still running full summer hours.
- Mid-week stays Often the easiest to book on short notice, and a good way to avoid weekend crowds at Calaway Park and the zoo.
