The Cedar was exactly what we needed for our stay in Banff. Check in and out were easy. The hosts were very responsive to our requests during our stay. The location and views were perfect. The Cedar has been well maintained, the cleanliness and appearance are exactly what you see advertised, and hosts are the best.

What a great place to stay in Banff! Short walk to downtown and the Bow River. The communication with the host was great, always responded quickly. The space was clean and perfect for two couples. There were also nice little extras, snacks and bear spray! Would highly recommend staying here.

This host was terrifically helpful and responsive. The property is exactly as advertised and is very nice. It’s quiet and really close to Banff Avenue where the shopping and eating options are centered. We walked three short blocks and were right in the middle of everything. And the mountains are of course all around. It was easy to jump on the highway or a shuttle and head out to lakes and trails. We highly recommend this property.

Great Place and Great Location!

We had a wonderful stay. The location is wonderful and only a couple blocks from town. The WiFi was really great and we were able to continue working when needed. The place was super clean and we loved having the small kitchen area to prepare meals--there was even a hot plate to use for cooking. Shauna/Brian provided recommendations for restaurants which were super helpful and we would absolutely return to visit this property. Great owners and great property!
