About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire apartment to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The Cedar - Downtown, walking distance to all the shops and restaurants!

The Cedar is a two bedroom, two bathroom, self-contained suite with a private entrance. The perfect getaway for two couples, a few friends, or a family. Located at the foot of Tunnel Mountain in Banff, 3-5 minute walk to downtown, the beach on the Bow river and the Banff Centre. The Cedar is the ideal, centrally located, private retreat after a full day of sightseeing, hiking, and skiing, or it can be your Banff hideaway where you can relax and have some down time. Two private, off street parking stalls at the rear of the property are provided! We hope you choose The Cedar for your next holiday!

Cute little walkable Spot
This stay was wonderful, home is in a quiet area, walked to the downtown and back several times. My son ended up getting sick and they allowed us to check out late so he could rest more.

Great location in Banff!
This home was clean and spacious. Better than that though was the location within walking distance town and easy to get everywhere we wanted to go. We had an RV with us and had plenty of room to park it (we got prior permission from the host.). Shauna was quick to respond to us even when we texted her late at night. Highly recommend this place.

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!

Beautiful and clean home walking distance to Banff center.
Four friends came to Banff for a girls trip of hiking and appreciating nature. We stayed in Shauna’s home for the second half of our trip and it was perfect. The bedrooms were large enough for four women and their luggage. The 2 bathrooms were clean and conveniently en suite. The living room area was clean and cozy. The house is walking distance to Banff’s Main Street, shopping, restaurants, and beautiful hikes. Shauna was kind and communicative and responded to a few questions immediately. If you want to cook your meals here, just note that the fridge is a mini fridge and the cooktop is a countertop, plug-in when you want to use it. Shauna provided us with a large cooler so we happily kept our beverages (think beer and wine) here and saved the fridge for real perishables:) We would highly recommend Shaun’s place as she is terrific, her home is immaculate, and you can walk all around Banff. Thank you, Shauna!

A lovely apartment in an ideal position for exploring Banff. Our check in was easy, and our hosts were very friendly. The apartment was very clean and comfortable, and suited two couples very well. We parked our car and enjoyed strolling to the shops, restaurants, museums and beautiful riverside. For longer trips, it was easy to drive from the apartment out of town. We would recommend highly and would love to return.

Great Stay - just as advertised
Clean, comfortable, and convenient location. Perfect tof two, two couples, or similar. The Cedars is just as advertised. As others have mentioned, this is a shared house and you may hear feet upstairs, or noise at times, but never too early, or too late. I would definitely return.

Wow, amazing property!!
The host was the best I've ever had the pleasure to stay with. There was so much care and effort put into our visit. Location was so close to downtown we could walk to everything. Anyone staying at this property will be very pleased. Very comfortable furniture, great parking just a few feet from the entrance. If you go to Banff, this is the place you need to stay!

Great little spot in Banff
Absolutely lovely little spot, very clean and lovely touches put into the space as well. Walking distance to the main street in town. Only thing to note is that theres some noise that can carry with the other guests, but it wasnt too bad. Would definitely recommend!

Great Location
A little expensive but much better value than staying in a hotel. Comfy beds, warm and clean. Great location just out of town and quite so no problem with hoards on the main strip. Only thing it’s missing is a cooker but apparently not able to provide due to local rules. Microwave and coffee making facilities available.

Better than 5 stars
Clean, cozy and convenient to all Banff has to offer. Restaurants, visitor center, walking and hiking trails, groceries are all within walking distance. The neighborhood is quiet and quaint. Our host was very accomodating and had everything we needed including off street parking. The house was very clean and uncluttered. We loved our stay in Banff.

Beautiful, convenient location!
Our stay at this location was a breeze from the start. We communicated with the property owner/manager and was able to gain early entry to accommodate my son's afternoon nap. The location is perfect, very close to downtown Banff, with beautiful views of the mountains. Would definitely choose to return to this location!
