ColoursNest- Fantastic Location with Amazing Views
Feel relaxed and well taken care of in a Birdstone Nest. This cozy travel accommodation is situated in the trendy downtown Beltline with amazing views of the city and mountains. Only three blocks away from the world famous Stampede grounds. Discover many fantastic restaurants, pubs and hot spots within short walking distance on 17th Ave, Stephen Ave or right out the door on 1st Street. Enjoy a revitalizing walk along the nearby Elbow River or take an adventurous road trip to Banff or Drumheller.
This spacious corner apartment is located on the 15th floor of the `Colours by Battistella` building. It has a kitchen stocked with what you need for basic cooking. The open floor plan continues through the dining area into a big living room space and on to a workstation and yoga meditation area. The bathroom and bedroom are just off of the living room. The bedroom has a very comfortable queen size bed with luxurious linens for a great nights sleep. The most noticeable feature are the floor to ceiling windows that span for 60 feet along all the outside walls. If you come during Stampede (early July), you can watch the fireworks right from the suite!
You`ll have access to the common rooftop patio that features colourful, artistic `sunbrellas` and extensive raised gardens.

Dining spans trendy taco joints, locavore eateries and Korean restaurants, while nightlife encompasses craft beer pubs, live music venues and dance clubs. There are landscaped gardens at Central Memorial Park.

We really enjoy hosting and creating spaces that our guests love. That's why getting glowing reviews like this inspire us even more! Check out our other listing only 6 blocks away on 13 Avenue & 1 Street SW. It's called ColoursNest.

We are thrilled you enjoyed your stay. You were wonderful guests! We welcome you back anytime!
What a beautiful place to stay! 15 floors up with great views of the city. Easy walking to so many things in town. Hosts were extremely helpful and left a basket of snacks, as well as going above-and-beyond to buy us some non-dairy milk per our request since we were arriving so late we couldn't shop. Lovely clean rooms, comfortable bed, and kitchen with all the needed pots and plates to cook - although the nearby restaurants were so great we didn't do much cooking!
The place was immaculately clean and organized. Everything we needed was available inside the suite. The basket of snacks and cold refreshments in the fridge were a very nice touch. Check-in was super easy, and the owner was always quick to respond to all messages. 10/10 will be recommending this property to anyone I know headed to Calgary, and will look to stay here next time I'm in Calgary for sure.
We had to book this VRBO home last minute because our other hosts cancelled on us day-of. Richard and Teressa put a lot of love and care into their rental and you could really tell they enjoy what they do. Check-in & check-out were seamless, the views were fantastic and they truly thought about everything for our comfort! Highly recommend!

Thank you for the wonderful review! We were happy to help.
Yes, we absolutely enjoy hosting and put our hearts into it!
This was such a beautiful condo, so open and bright! I was only here for 2 days but wish I extended my stay because of how nice this place was. The hosts know how to compliment the space for their guests - there was snacks upon arrival and the overall ambience was warm and inviting. I was appreciative of Richard accommodating my late check in so thank you for that! I will be back again!

We love sharing our place with people like you who really enjoy what it has to offer! Thank you!
This is a beautiful condo 15 floors up and the views are amazing. The property is exceptionally maintained and all the little touches - coffee, hot chocolate, chips were appreciated! My favorite thing in the condo was the comfy swing in the living room! Looking out over the city!! Loved it.
A nice balcony as well with seating for two and the lights around the patio was a nice touch as well. Lots of books and games on hand as well
Highly recommend - and Richard was very communicative and accommodating for my requests!!

We love it when our guests enjoy the place as it was meant to be! A place to relax and feel peace. Thank you Loretta for the wonderful review! We hope to see you again!
Very nice condo, decorated and furnished thoughtfully. There was a bit of confusion around the check in process but I believe it was 100% due to an issue with VRBO and nothing to do with Richard. Would stay at Richard’s property’s again.

We love the space we created and we are happy that our guests do too.
Fault aside, we do apologize for the check-in fiasco, we have taken steps with Vrbo to hopefully prevent it from happening again. Would host Brendan again!
