About this property
Urbanest - Spectacular Views & Amenities Downtown
Feel relaxed and at ease in a Birdstone Nest accommodation. This stylish and cozy corner suite is situated in the trendy downtown Calgary Beltline with amazing views of the city. Only three blocks away from the world famous Stampede grounds. Discover many fantastic restaurants, pubs and hot spots within short walking distance on 17th Ave, Stephen Ave or right out the door on 1st Street. Enjoy a revitalizing walk along the nearby Elbow River. Take an adventurous road trip to Banff or Drumheller.
This spacious corner apartment is located on the 20th floor of the `Colours by Battistella` building. It has a kitchen supplied with what you need for basic cooking. The open floor plan continues through the kitchen area into a big living room space and on to a workstation. The full size bathroom has shower, tub, toilet and sink. The main bedroom has a very comfortable queen size bed with luxurious linens for a great nights sleep. It has two large sliding doors to open up the space and feel very roomy. The most noticeable feature are the floor to ceiling windows that span for 60 feet along all the outside walls. If you come during Stampede, Canada Day or New Years Eve you can watch the fireworks right from the suite!
You`ll have access to the common rooftop patio that features colourful, artistic `sunbrellas` and extensive raised gardens.
Generally we do a self-checkin procedure but can meet in person if requested. We do enjoy meeting you in person.

Colours is situated on the edge of both Victoria Park and in the Beltline.
Victoria Park is an up-and-coming area, with converted warehouses on 1st Street SW, now home to cool clothes designers and offbeat home decor shops. Eateries include casual cafes, laid-back global spots and Jewish delis, while bars and small music venues get lively after dark. The Saddledome arena hosts concerts and Calgary Flames hockey games, and the annual Calgary Stampede rodeo takes place at Stampede Park.
The hip Beltline area is bounded by 17th Avenue SW, with cool boutiques selling fashion, retro furniture, vinyl and quirky gifts. Dining spans trendy taco joints, locavore eateries and Korean restaurants, while nightlife encompasses craft beer pubs, live music venues and dance clubs. There are landscaped gardens at Central Memorial Park.
City transit (C-Train and bus) are available and stops are conveniently located nearby. Taxis, Ubers, bike and scooter rentals are also options. You`ll find that you`ll be able to walk to many of the local amenities. There are so many convenient restaurants, pubs, stores and things to do in close proximity.

The Nest was as advertised. A beautiful, cozy space with amazing downtown views. Everything about our stay was easy and just so comfortable. We loved how close we were to great restaurants and entertainment venues, but mostly we loved the space itself.
The condo was so perfectly located. The hosts were very easy to reach. The beds were comfortable, and the welcome basket was a nice touch. Clean building with a fabulous bar/restaurant, and a Starbucks across the street. Would definitely book again.
I am a business traveler and have moved from hotel chains to individual properties. Richard's property was 100% as advertised. The check in process with VRBO was a little clunky but the direct connection with Richard was seamless. Any questions I had regarding the property were answered quickly and with clarity. I would book this property every time I travel to Calgary.
Richard and Theresa were so responsive and helpful! The apartment was so clean and comfortable, the location and views are just perfect. Nothing but positive things to say about this place!
Great apartment in the Beltline of Calgary. Quiet location but close enough to the city centre to walk to many great restaurants, also great location for the Stampede with a view from the apartment and the balcony.
