Buffaloberry Bed & Breakfast

Due to the fire in Jasper we had to relocate and chose Banff - which we had skipped in the first round. As we were late out, options were narrowed, so we were lucky that Buffaloberry came up - and had a room available. Wonderful house in a safe area - quiet - and only a few blocks from the Main Street. Parking is in the street and is free. We were greated when we arrived - and located in our room upstairs. Nice room decorated, views over the mountains. Nice - but small bathroom - but what you need. Downstairs in the huge living area - we had an afternoon snack - home made of course by Teresa and James. Lovely. The outside patio where you can have a coffee and feed the birds is wonderful, relaxing and James was there for a chat. It's expensive in Banff - I guess all year around - and the Buffaloberry is on the top of that list. Breakfast is yoghurt and fruit, coffee, juice and homemade - a little portion of eggs/bacon baked in a little cup/bowl - tasty but small. Toast as well. I could have eaten twice as much - and for the price - I had expected more. But You pay for the luxury house, the location and for the quietness and few guests.

This was home base for our first vacation in 4 years and first time to Banff. We so enjoyed our 5 day visit, Buffaloberry is beautiful, hosts could not have been more lovely, the breakfasts were gourmet. We loved the best blueberry pancakes! Teresa and James the hosts know all the best places to hike and see around Banff. The rooms were so well appointed, sitting on the patio in the evening we could hear wind rustling through the trees. Or we could relax in the living room with music, a good book and afternoon dessert, hope she makes brownies again. A true oasis.

Our stay at Buffaloeberry was one of the many highlights of our vacation to Banff and Jasper. Our visit started with them in Banff and did not disappoint. Teresa and James were the epitome of hostess and host. They were very personable, attentive and eager to offer suggestions. The B&B was so quaint and beautiful. Centrally located to walking to downtown Banff. The breakfasts were to die for. Don't look any further for a place to stay. This is it!! Warren & Sarah
