At Wits End BB

Banff

We stayed At Wit's End for two nights and had a great experience.

Banff Airporter dropped us off right at the front door. April, the owner, was there to greet us upon our arrival. She was kind and resourceful.

Both the common area and our Twin/King room were clean and well-maintained. Pride of ownership showed in every detail. This well-appointed room had a generous-sized en-suite bathroom. 

I always look forward to gourmet breakfasts when staying at BnBs but unfortunately it was not offered here. But instead, the fridge was fully stocked with fresh continental breakfast items: various types of bread, butter, jam, yogurt, milk, fresh fruit etc. 

Although the property may appear to be located off the beaten path, it's only within an 8-10 minute walk from downtown Banff in a picturesque area. Definitely helped us reach our daily step count goals.

As a bonus, there is a Chinese restaurant along the way with unbeatable lunch specials (dinner specials could be as good, but we didn't get to try). 

We will not hesitate to stay here again or recommend this place to a friend.

A great stay and good value for money

Very clean and quiet. Good breakfast. The rooms are comfortable, and the restrooms are very well actively ventilated. Small but nicely arranged outside area. The hostess was very nice and helpful. We were very satisfied.  

Very satisfied

The location is absolutely stunning, it was right at the base of a mountain and close to the Cascade Gardens, about a 10 minute walk beside the river to downtown. The host April had a lot of great suggestions for places to eat and since she was not doing the breakfast portion due to COVID 19, she still left a lot of little things in the kitchen common area so we could make our own breakfast. Yogurts, fruit cups, juice, milk, amazing fresh bread, butter, jam, cereals. Beds were extremely comfortable. The backyard is gorgeous and has a lovely little sitting area outside the entrance where you can eat breakfast outside if you wish and enjoy the beauty of the landscape around you. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Beautiful!

We were so happy to find this B&B on our first trip to Banff.  Our room, bed and en-suite bathroom were so comfortable and clean.  It is quiet and tastefully decorated.  April is a terrific cook and supplied gourmet breakfasts every morning.  She’s also a wealth of information about the area.  It’s location is very convenient to the downtown and public transportation.  

Hospitality Plus 

Very enjoyable stay. Breakfast was a pleasant and enjoyable surprise. This is actually a proper Bed & Breakfast that serves real Breakfast (for some reason Breakfast at a B&B is not a given in Canada). The hosts were very friendly and the reason that this place is highly ranked. The common area was very nice. I was up before sunrise and she set up the Coffee machine and showed me what button to push for fresh Coffee for my 5:30  wakeup. I stayed in the cozy room, which is Europe hotel small and the Private Bathroom is across the hall...which is somewhat awkward, but I knew this coming in so no surprises. The other 2 Suites are self contained. Now there was an issue that came up before my arrival and the Hostess worked with to resolve it very fairly. Location is good, it's the Banff Springs side of the River and you can cut through the Administration building to walk to town. Would certainly stay again.

Excellent B&B with Great hosts

At Wits End is conveniently located within walking distance of downtown Banff.
We stayed there for two nights and we had a king room that was very comfortable and well equipped (a chair could make a welcome addition).
Breakfasts, different each day, were delicious and plentiful enough before a day of hiking.

Comfortable and well located B&B in Banff

We really enjoyed our one night's stay at April's B&B and just wish we had longer to enjoy the awesome location and comfortable room. She had delicious baked goods and snacks available, and the room with ensuite bathroom was private and comfortable. April was extremely welcoming and full of great information about the area. The location near the Fairmont and directly behind Cascade Gardens (5 minute walk to downtown Banff) was excellent! Would definitely stay again.

Wish we had stayed longer!

We stayed here for two nights and absolutely loved it. April is a wonderful host, warm and welcoming and happy to provide excellent suggestions and advice on activities in and around Banff. The room was spacious with a comfortable bed and lots of storage. It is in an excellent location, only a few minutes walk to town but in a quiet location that gets you away from the hoards of tourists. There is a fridge and microwave available for guests to use with a supply of plates and cutlery and a dining table, which we used one evening when we were too tired to go out for a meal.  The free breakfast was amazing, easily the best breakfast I've ever had at a B&B. We highly recommend this B&B

Wonderful B&B

April, our hostess, met us as my wife and I drove in. She is a really nice lady, very personable and willing to share her vast knowledge of Banff and surrounding areas. Her breakfasts were spectacular. The room was clean, comfortable and attractive. The location was perfect, just a short picturesque walk across the bridge and we were downtown. We are recommending At Wits End to any and everyone. I hope to return next year

Wonderful stay

This was my home while I was visiting Banff and it was wonderful, I had the cozy room which I thought would be tiny but turned out to be quite spacious, the bed was huge!! and there was a large cupboard space to store your things and a flatscreen TV, with the use of my own private bathroom steps down the hall. The location was great about 10 mins walk to the main centre of Town so you could reach anything you needed quickly but still far enough away from the hordes of Tourists on the main street, and the walk across the bridge into town was quite beautiful. The falls are close and so is the Fairmont hotel which is beautiful. April's breakfasts were amazing and huge, they often kept me going all day!! The hosts are wonderful April is so friendly and goes out of her way to make sure you have everything you need. I was really excited to see Elk and she drove me round to the golf course to see them, and drove me out to see Lake Minnewanka because the shuttle was no longer running, it was the nicest gesture and I will never forget how kind she was, to take time out of her very busy day to help me. You should definetly stay here!!!!!
