Hillhurst Calgary Apartments for Rent

Neighbourhood Overview

Hillhurst is one of Calgary's most established and desirable inner-city communities, forming the southern half of the Hillhurst-Sunnyside neighbourhood on the north bank of the Bow River. Its southern border runs along Memorial Drive with direct access to the Bow River pathway and Prince's Island Park — one of Calgary's most beloved urban parks. The Kensington Road and 10th Street NW commercial corridors provide excellent walkable retail and dining, and the Sunnyside C-Train station is within easy walking distance. The housing stock is dominated by large character homes, heritage bungalows, and quality infill that commands some of the highest rental prices in northwest Calgary. One-bedroom suites run $1,750–$2,400/month; two-bedrooms $2,400–$3,400/month. Hillhurst is consistently popular with established professionals, physicians, academics, and families who want inner-city living with mature tree-lined streets. "We've been in Hillhurst for six years. Prince's Island Park is five minutes from our front door, downtown is a 20-minute walk, and the streets are beautiful — big trees, character homes. It's the most civilized place in Calgary to live." — Tom and Patricia A., professionals and Hillhurst residents
