Detailed Reviews
Wonderful weekend get away to Richard’s cozy, fresh, modern, clean, and wonderfully stocked up Banff Bear BNB. The unit is fantastic for two couples. There are two separate rooms, each with their own bathroom which is perfect to maintain your own personal hygienic bubble whilst staying at this beautiful home. The location was great, only few minutes walk into town. The unit as well had near by off street parking which was convenient as well! Would highly recommend this place to any travelling couples or parents wanting a separate room to their children. Thanks again for the pleasant stay and making us feel at home and accommodating our late check in request. Would love to come back soon! Cheers -Derek

We stayed here for three nights on our road trip. It was perfect.
The hosts were really friendly and helpful. The suite was spotlessly clean and comfortable.
With the covid precautions it was great to be able to stay in basically our own apartment. We only needed one bedroom really but it is a two bedroom self contained suite. We didn't want to spend too much time in bars etc and there is no stove in the kitchenette (though there is a microwave etc) so we opted for food from the restaurants to be delivered by the ToGo company, so that we only went down town to eat one night.
The ski hills had just opened so we spent the days skiing and the evenings chilling out watching netflix in our own living room.
On the subject of skiing it was great to have the boot warmers to dry the cold boots out.
It was the perfect end to our road trip and we would stay here again when we go back to Banff.

We had a wonderful stay, no negatives. The hosts met us and helped us with lots of information and tips about what to do and when it was best to do it.
It was great to have basically our own lovely apartment in a beautiful location.
The continental breakfast supplies were perfect.
We would all recommend it to any of our friends and will definitely stay there again.

I can’t say enough about Richard and Allison! My friends and I were truly sad to leave! Their home is absolute perfection. Beautifully clean and well kept. They were consummate hosts and gave us a thorough introduction and detailed tips about Banff. Some of their special suggestions saved us!! Their place is barely a 5 minute walk to the main street in the adorable downtown area. They even checked in on us the second night to see how we were getting on. I absolutely recommend the Banff Bear Bed and Breakfast! 10/10!!

Banff Bear B&B is an ideal home away from home. Richard and Alison are generous hosts, and provide a tasteful, clean and spacious apartment with a cozy sitting room and two bedrooms with queen size beds and ensuites...perfect for two couples. A generous and delicious breakfast, such as granola, fresh fruit, muffins, yoghurt etc is provided for you to help yourself. We particularly liked the fact that we could have breakfast in our own apartment when we wanted to, and could linger over another cup of tea if we wished. The location is great too, being a short walk to the main shopping and restaurant streets.
