When travelling to a new city or planning a staycation near your home, choosing your accommodations can be tough. Boutique hotels offer an elegant, unique environment and personalized service. Many of the smaller, more charming hotels in Edmonton also happen to be close to the city’s most popular neighbourhoods

La Boheme Restaurant-Bed & Breakfast

1
6427 112 Ave NW, Edmonton AB T5W 0N9

This bed and breakfast, which was originally a luxury apartment building, is a provincially designated historic site. While the building was completed in 1912, La Boheme took over the space in 1982. It’s still considered one of the city’s most unique places to stay, with plenty of historical touches, such as the original Edwardian pressed tin ceiling. There are six suites, each named after a historical figure, and all suites include a claw-foot bathtub in the private bathroom. There’s also a fantastic restaurant onsite.

Fairmont Hotel Macdonald

10065 100th Street, EDMONTON AB T5J 0N6

It doesn’t get more luxurious than the Hotel Mac, as locals refer to it. This historic hotel, which opened in 1915, overlooks the river valley from its prime downtown location. It’s close to shopping and, in the summer, an outdoor farmers’ market (named the best in the world by a National Geographic travel blogger in 2013). During your stay, try their fitness centre, then take advantage of their gourmet cuisine in the Harvest Room or sip a cocktail in the Confederation Lounge. Don’t forget to say hello to Smudge, the hotel’s canine ambassador.

Varscona Hotel On Whyte

2
10620 82 Ave NW, Edmonton AB T6E 2A7

A casual, sophisticated boutique hotel located in the thick of Old Strathcona, the Varscona Hotel combines comfort with modern amenities. While there isn’t a restaurant onsite, the hotel is surrounded by plenty of amazing dining options, as well as bars, pubs, spas and shops. This hotspot is also the perfect place to stay if you’re in town for one of the city’s many summer festivals, as many of them take place in the neighbourhood.

If Old Man Winter has got you feeling down, take solace in the fact that there is tons of fun stuff to do inside and outside. These Edmonton attractions and winter festivals will immediately perk you up.
If you’ve ever worried about shampoo chemicals or wondered what happens to your highlighter foils, you’ve likely realized that hair maintenance is tough on the environment. Many salons are dedicated to environmentally friendly, sustainable practices, such as recycling and using ammonia-free hair dyes. These hair studios make being eco-friendly chic and easy.
Threading, which originated in Asia, is all the rage in countries all over the world now. The technique, which involves using a looped thread to twist and yank a row of hairs from the follicle, is popular for the precise results it offers. Plus, threading works really well on people with sensitive skin, such as those on Retin A or Accutane. These Edmonton spas offer threading for eyebrows and more.
