Led by Truman, the Autograph Collection Hotel at Stampede Park will become the first year-round hospitality anchor within Calgary’s emerging Culture + Entertainment District.
Challenge
The project needs to address a critical gap in Calgary’s downtown hotel supply while supporting the long-term vision for a vibrant culture scene. As a 15-story, full-service hotel, the project needed integrated with major civic infrastructure while establishing a distinctive hospitality experience to support major events, conventions, and everyday urban life beyond the world-renowned Calgary Stampede.
Solution
Situated as the western gateway to Stampede Park, and integrated with the expanded BMO Centre and future arena, our design reflects regional identity reinterpreted through a contemporary lens, drawing inspiration from Western culture and the legacy of the Calgary Stampede. Rich, layered materials, including leather, wood, and denim-inspired detailing, create a welcoming arrival experience rooted in Calgary’s heritage.
Outcome
Strategically placed to serve Calgary’s booming events, meetings, and tourism markets, the Autograph Collection Hotel on Stampede Park will be a new destination providing a signature hospitality experience in an emerging year-round entertainment district. The hotel will connect to Calgary’s energy system, embedding it within the city’s long-term sustainability framework.
