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!

Wir haben 4 Nächte bei Lisa in Banff verbracht. Es war ein Traum. Das belebte Banff ist in einem schönen 20 Minuten Spaziergang zu Fuß zu erreichen. So kann man abends spazieren und flanieren, hat aber auch eine ruhige, komfortable Unterkunft, fern vom Trubel. Das Studio ist geschmackvoll und zweckmäßig eingerichtet, es gibt ein komfortables, modernes Badezimmer und ein Megabett. Sehr viele Wanderwege sind zu Fuß zu erreichen und wer das nicht mag, kann den Bus nehmen. Die Verkehrssituation in Banff ist schon angespannt, aber für uns Berliner noch als normal zu verstehen. Es gibt am Haus eine kleine Terrasse und einen Pavillon im Garten, wo man sich zwischendurch auch prima entspannen kann. Wir waren schon viel in Kanada unterwegs, in Banff, die Umgebung und das Gästestudio haben wir uns richtig verliebt. Man kann soviel erleben, unternehmen und entdecken, es muss auch nicht immer der Lake Louis sein…es ist einfach eine Traumgegend. Danke nochmal an Lisa, durch die konkreten Informationen im Vorfeld konnten wir uns bestens vorbereiten und hatten einen perfekten Aufenthalt. Die Kommunikation per Mail lief bestens. Hoffentlich können wir eines Tages wiederkommen.

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!

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!

Banff Vacation
We had the best time at Lisa’s studio. Check in was a breeze, communication was great, and the studio was immaculate when we arrived. We were super thankful to be able to add on a late check out since our flight got delayed. We were able to walk to town for everything we needed and it took about 10-15 minutes to walk there. Pictures do not do the studio justice, it was even better than we expected. We will definitely stay at Lisa’s again when we take our next vacation to Banff.

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
