Review

Character and identity

The Dorian opens in downtown Calgary in 2022 as a literary-themed boutique riff on Oscar Wilde's The Picture of Dorian Gray, with author quotes, peacock motifs and hardback copies of the novel threaded through the property. The design mixes floral wallpaper and vintage wardrobes with modern lines, sensor lighting and well-stocked brass bar trolleys. Three venues anchor the food and drink: Prologue, an all-day café and bar with a weekend Wilde About Tea service; Bistro Novelle for burgers and sandwiches; and The Wilde on 27, a 27th-floor rooftop restaurant leaning into Alberta beef and bison. Local nods (Wild Rose carpets, Eau Claire gin) keep it grounded.

Who's it for

Best for:
Design-literate couples and city-break travellers who want a playful, thematic stay with strong cocktails, a view and serious cooking. The interactive Mark of the Craft lobby artwork, rooftop terrace with glass-walled alfresco seating, and walkable access to the Calgary Tower and Prince's Island Park make it a sharp pick for a weekend in town.

Should look elsewhere:
Travellers who want a quiet, classic luxury hotel or a resort-style experience. The Wilde theming is everywhere and won't suit guests who find concept hotels gimmicky, and families seeking kids' programming or expansive facilities should look at larger properties.

Bottom line

The draw here is concept and cooking: a tightly executed Wilde theme paired with a genuinely good rooftop restaurant where Alberta bison tartare and Black Apron beef tenderloin do the talking. Book it for a design-driven couple's weekend, aim for a higher floor for the city views, and reserve The Wilde on 27 at sunset before you check in.
