Very lovely place to stay. The host does outstanding details in making your stay pleasant and comfortable. The decorations and furniture are high quality and beautiful. It is a private setting for you and not far from the town of Banff. We highly recommend this place.

Lisa was a wonderful host from start to finish. She gave us recommendations for restaurants, hiking trails and other things to do while in Banff. The rental was very clean, well stocked, and the perfect location for walking into town.

Lisa made everything smooth and easy! The studio was cozy, comfortable, well-appointed, pristine and private. The location is also perfect- an easy walk into downtown but nicely removed from the hoards of tourists! Also just a short walk to Bow Falls. I hope to visit again- what a beautiful place Banff is!!

There's nothing bad about this rental. She has provided everything you could ever imagine and more! It's exceptional and a short walk to town, restaurants and shops. She gave us an excellent list of eating places. Nice and private and quiet. She also gave excellent ideas for out of the way places to go that were unexpected surprises! Definitely a return.

This was the perfect space for 1 (or 2), comfortable and cozy. It had everything I needed and was close to most things (Bow River, main street Banff, etc). I walked everywhere and took roam transit to the hot springs. I would highly recommend this accommodation.

We had a great 2 night pre-Christmas/birthday celebration getaway. The studio was just perfect, located in a lovely neighborhood a short walk to town, trails, Bow Falls and the Banff Springs Hotel. Everything from the super cozy bed to the well equipped mini kitchen and bath made our stay very comfortable. We would highly recommend and look forward to a future stay!

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.

Premier Host

They consistently provide great experiences for their guests
