Fabulous accommodation

We spent 4 nights at the Finest Guest Studio. Everything about our stay was superb. Lisa had left tea and coffee for us which was much appreciated when we arrived 6 hours later than planned. It was immaculate inside and out with everything we needed. After hiking we really loved coming back to sit reading on the patio. The location was perfect. We hope to come back and stay again. Thank you Lisa 😊

Absolutely delightful studio apartment within walking distance of Banff centre

The apartment is attached to the rear of Delores’s own home with its own private entrance and deck surrounded by garden and woodland. It is beautifully furnished and warm with additional fire for cold days. It is close to the town, the Bow Falls and the Fairmont Banff Springs. We were delighted with our choice. Thanks Delores for sharing your home.

A perfect little haven!

Even though we arrived slightly earlier than check in, Dolores made us feel right at home in her wonderful place. She was an attentive, considerate host who made sure we had everything we needed. The place itself was faultless and provided a great base to go explore the rockies. Would definitely return again!

Thank you, Dolores

for a well-situated, spacious studio flat, and a warm welcome. The flat was a little dark, and the cooking facilities could have been more extensive, but the bed was big, and we saw humming-birds!

Lovely stay!

We had a wonderful visit in Banff and this was the perfect spot to stay! Everything was clean, comfortable and Lisa was so kind. Great location to enjoy all that Banff has to offer. It snowed one of the days and we came home after a long day exploring to shoveled steps. Such a kind gesture.

Absolutely Perfect

The photos don't do this place justice! Lisa has thought of everything you could need, from two types of wineglasses, to half and half and bottled water in the fridge, to a sharp knife and cutting board, to plates, bowls, and silverware. The linens were luxurious, the bed extremely comfortable, and the robes and towels fluffy and like new. Lisa even provided slippers and toiletries. Both the guest suite and the outdoor space are private, quiet, and charming. The bathroom has a lovely, tiled shower. Lisa was very pleasant and friendly and her communications were helpful and informative. We loved this place--a pleasant walk to downtown (which Lisa has mapped out for you), but away from all the crowds and noise and parking issues. It is one of the best, if not THE best, VRBOs we've ever stayed in. We wished our stay had been longer; we were sad to leave.

Wonderful spot to stay in Banff

Three elements made this a great place for our five night stay. The location made for an easy walk to either downtown, Bow River walking trail and the Banff Springs Hotel, while being away from the crowds that fill up the town. The room itself was very nice and furnished with everything we needed; the deck was perfect for a morning cup of coffee or an afternoon glass of wine. Finally, the host was very responsive and accommodating to make sure we had everything we needed. We were very happy with our stay and would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Very Comfortable and Pleasant Stay in Banff!

We were super happy with this VRBO. The place was well stocked with coffee, tea, toiletries, etc. and we found the bed to be very comfortable. There is a big armoire for convenient clothing storage and the place was very clean. It was an easy walk to town (~15-20 minutes depending on where you’re headed) and we were able to walk to the Fairmount easily for a friend’s wedding celebrations. Communication with Lisa was also seamless. We found it to be plenty of space for our needs and were fine without having a full kitchen. Would definitely recommend!

About the host

Hosted by Lisa Carroll

Host profile image
Welcome to my Studio. I am a Banff local, moved here in the 70's and proud to call Banff my home. I love being able to share this beautiful place with my guests. I also enjoy to travel, explore and experience the many cultures the world has to offer.

Why they chose this property

The location of the studio is so perfect. It is in a quiet neighborhood away from the busy downtown. I so enjoy when my guests tell me how much they love coming back to the studio after a full day of exploring and can unwind and relax on the private deck.

What makes this property unique

I like that I can offer my quests a 5 star experience. I've enjoyed adding all the little extras in the studio so there is nothing that my guests may want and to make them feel special and right at home.
