The best place to stay in Banff!

It was a great place from the moment we arrived to the time we left. We couldn’t have asked for a better host, very easy to talk to and helped us with any questions we had. The place itself was so cozy and close to everything, we walked to dinner every night! Look forward to staying here again when we come back!

Best Stay in Banff!

The guest studio was in an excellent location in quiet neighborhood and within walking distance to everything you want to see in Banff town. The studio was clean, comfortable and filled with everything we needed. Lisa has paid attention to detail with nice touches to the amenities provided including a cozy sitting area, comfy bed, nice linens and some surprise extras. Simply the best stay in Banff!

Perfect Banff Studio!

Great little well-appointed studio hidden behind a private home in a residential area, a short walk from town. Quiet, clean, private parking space. Host is friendly and gracious with just the right amount of 'available.' Ideal for the two of us, we tried to re-book for summer and they're already full! Grab this lovely rental if it's available for your trip!

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 😊

Banff Getaway

Lisa’s studio apartment is in the perfect location to see and explore the Banff area. Lisa provided easy instructions on accessing the studio and made excellent dinner recommendations. We visited the Canmore, Banff, Lake Moraine and Lake Louise, Jasper and Yoho. The studio was a wonderful place to rest our weary heads after a long day of hiking and exploring. The studio had a spa feeling with a comfortable bed and a luxurious bathroom. Thank you Lisa for making our stay incredible.
