Excellent family lodging in every way 10/10.
Location was perfect for exploring Calgary and to use as a base for a Drumheller excursion. The cleanliness was first class and the spacious home was a home away from home. The hosts are brilliant and everything was easy. The hosts even had lovely treats for us. Parking is right out front and perfect too.
We plan to come back to Calgary and wouldn’t stay anywhere else. Extra high recommendation.
Thank you to our hosts Dale, Veronica and Sadie.
We had a great stay! The hosts were super nice and easy to reach, and they even left us coffee and snacks which we really appreciated. The house was comfy and had plenty of space for four adults and a toddler. Location was perfect for everything we needed to do. Would definitely stay again and recommend to other friends and family!
We really enjoyed our stay and the location was perfect. We were walking distance to so many attractions, great bars and eateries. The charm of house was amazing.
We were so well received, excellent place to stay with a great location in Ramsey. The kitchen was well stocked, everything was very comfortable! We felt at home!
Unbelievable hospitality and comfort in a period correct home. Finishes are great, rooms are very well stocked and super comfortable, and the antiques are beautiful and thoughtfully integrated into the space. These hosts have thought of everything and made our stay unforgettable, I cannot emphasize how impressed we were with both the property and the ammenities. Definitely a keeper, and we will be back!!
This was a great stay, at an amazing property that has everything you could need for a worry free vacation. The property is clean and the hosts are very friendly! Will definitely be booking with them again in the future!
Such a great house. Beds were so comfortable, and the house was warm and welcoming. Close to malls, restaurants, breweries and shopping. Loved it and can't wait to go back!
We hope to come back to Calgary soon, just to stay at this great place! Gorgeous heritage home with lovely upgrades and renovations. Well stocked and beautifully appointed. Lovely sheets, beds towels, pillows. We really enjoyed all of the art and historical photos and artifacts. It was a joy to stay here. Thank you!
We can’t say enough how much we enjoyed our stay. This 1912 home has been beautifully restored and is located in a very walkable residential neighborhood close to shops, restaurants, and parks. Excellent communication with our host’s Veronica and Dale who made us feel very welcome.
Our family was in Calgary for a celebration of life. The Cinnamon House did not disappoint. Everything we needed was provided. Our hosts, Dale & Veronica were very hospitable and friendly. We highly recommend the Cinnamon House for your next Calgary adventure.
Centrally located turn of the century charmer. Quiet, immaculate, lots of space for 6 guests. Immediate response from owners who also have paid attention to all the little details. A must stay for your Calgary stay.
What a lovely stay we had at Cinnamon House…from the personalized note when we first arrived, to the welcoming goodies, cream for our morning coffee and the comfy beds and linens…..thank you!! There was everything we needed in the kitchen, including snacks. We were able to visit the local attractions with ease from the house. We supported the local eateries and walked the neighborhood, which was quiet and quaint. Would highly recommend. Until next time…
This is a beautifully restored, historical home. It is full of tastefully positioned period antiques. An interesting full history of the home is provided. It has two furnaces so the main floor remained cozy, it was -30 during our stay, but we kept the sleeping area a little cooler as we prefer. Very comfy beds, all the expected amenities, I really have no complaints. Very enjoyable stay. Will stay again.
This beautifully restored historic home in the Ramsay area of Calgary met all our expectations - it is exactly as pictured. Very clean and well-kept. Easy walk to restaurants, shopping, etc. The owners were great and very welcoming, making sure we had everything we needed. We were pleased to find such great accommodations in this area. Highly recommend!
We booked this apartment as a spot to get ready for my wedding. There was enough space for 6 of us and the hair and makeup crew to set up. Veronia and Dale were exceptional hosts! All the communication was timely and detailed. Check in was seamless. We were greeted with sourdough and wine and plenty of drinks and snacks in the kitchen. The house is emmaculate and so charming. It was the perfect spot for getting ready photos before the wedding. Close to Inglewood with tons of restaurant and shopping options! You will love staying here!!!
I was in Calgary for a business trip, but who doesn’t want to tag along on a work trip to this place?? My parents, husband, and kiddo all came along and we had a blast! There was plenty for them to do while I was at the convention center for most of the week and Dale and Veronica were *amazing* Seriously, I couldn’t have asked for better hosts! They were incredibly gracious and accommodating and kind. If you’re reading this, run, don’t walk! BOOK THIS PLACE TODAY!!!
Best stay ever with a VRBO rental. Wonderful communication with owners. They brought us over some umbrella when it was a rainy day in case we did not have any. They had a bowl of fruit, a bottle of wine, a loaf of bread for us on arrival and fresh flowers. Alway available to answer question. Very comfortable unit. Lots of room to spread out. We easily walked into the Saddle Dome daily for our Rotary Convention. The Inglewood area was only about a 10 min walked and had many restaurants and other stores. Absolutely charming.
This updated duplex is over 100 years old, but has retained its charm. It's very spacious, and in a very characterful neighbourhood that is easily accessed off Calgary's Trail system.
Hosts Dale and Veronica were so hospitable and generous, with many lovely welcoming touches and all you could need for a stay. Communication was very prompt, and they were happy to engage.
They accommodated us very well, as our family Thanksgiving dinner was at the property. It handled us with ease.
This is a Rolls-Royce of a vrbo, and the chauffeurs are first-class, too!

I personally did not stay in the house, but, the group I had reserved the house for had said it was a fantastic stay and would recommended these accommodations to anyone visiting the area. Both Veronica and Dave were amazing hosts.
