Delta Hotels by Marriott Edmonton Centre Suites
spa and wellness base for a West Edmonton slides trip
About this hotel
Edmonton's West Edmonton Mall, home to World Waterpark, is a short drive from the property, close enough to fold a slides afternoon into the rest of the day without losing the morning to driving. Rooms here skip an on-site pool, so the whole swimming day happens at World Waterpark itself, with the hotel handling sleep, breakfast and the drive back. Standard rooms keep the layout simple, which suits couples or a smaller family more than a multigenerational group sharing one space after a long day of slides. Pets travel too, which is not something every waterpark stay in this city offers, and it is the detail that decides the booking for families who will not leave the dog behind.
- Edmonton location
- Compact rooms
- Standard doubles
- Pet-friendly
Our take
I would choose Delta Hotels by Marriott Edmonton Centre Suites for families who want a four-star downtown base for World Waterpark, with spa and wellness facilities and a fitness room for the grown-ups. Rooms are compact and the doubles standard, so families needing a lot of space should check the layout first. Pets are welcome. The 8.5 score comes from a smaller number of reviews than the busiest hotels.
- ✓Pack a dry change of clothes for the drive back, damp swimsuits and a long Edmonton drive do not mix well.
- ✓Book early for Alberta school holidays, when Edmonton rooms near West Edmonton Mall sell out well ahead of the slides-day rush.
- ✓Check parking costs at the mall before you arrive, since the hotel itself does not include it.

Why guests love itOur read on this stay: it earns its keep in the small moments rather than the big ones. A 4-star room a short drive from World Waterpark means the morning starts with breakfast instead of a long commute, and the evening ends with dry towels instead of another trip out. Delta Hotels by Marriott Edmonton Centre Suites is not trying to be the destination, and that is precisely the point for a family whose whole day already happened in the water.
