Unique vintage pieces reflect the heritage of the building and its surroundings. The fully equipped chef’s kitchen, complete with an oversized island, is perfect for entertaining or preparing a home-cooked meal.

Ideal for business travelers, the loft includes high-speed Wi-Fi and a dedicated workspace. For added convenience, an in-suite washer and dryer are available. Situated in an intimate boutique-style building with just 19 units, our spacious, south-facing loft spans the entire width of the building, offering both privacy and tranquility.

Security and accessibility are top priorities. The building features secure video surveillance, digital entry, and a comprehensive fire suppression system. It is fully fire-monitored and wheelchair accessible, with an elevator providing easy access to the second-floor loft.

Come and experience a unique blend of history, comfort, and modern convenience—your perfect retreat in the heart of Winnipeg awaits!

This property is beautiful. It’s extremely walkable to various bars and restaurants. The owner of this property is extremely detail oriented. I was blown away by how stunning it was. She had great recommendations for things to do and see. She also met us there to ensure we knew how to get checked in and where to park. Did I mention she brought cake? 10/10 would recommend this to anybody!

Martina is a lovely host, who met us at check-in, and toured us through this most unique condo. It is such a beautifully appointed space. Truly unique. It was like living in an art gallery. It was also very nice to have a parking space. We would very happily stay here again.

Fabulous Loft
This was a great central place to stay and enjoy Winnipeg. The loft is really cute and the owner has thought of everything. Its the little things that puts this place over the top. Martina can be very involved or as little involved as you want. She researched what was going on the week we were there from concerts to plays to baseball game. They have a big map on the wall that shows the areas special interest and how to get there. Martina went over the map so we knew where to go and what restaurants she recommended. She was spot on! Bruce met us in the unloading area and saved us a spot so we could unload easily. Ive never had such one on one treatment before. You could tell they wanted you to totally enjoy your trip. They even left a bottle of wine and a mint on each of our pillows. Thank you Martina & Bruce! We loved your place and would love to stay here again next time were in town.

Awesome interior design
Let’s start with the basics - very clean, spacious, comfortable, very well stocked, excellent host. All five stars. But the truly amazing aspect of this unit was the absolutely incredible work they did on the interior design. Basically, they gutted an old warehouse and created an amazing living space. Warm and inviting, yet incorporating dozens of antique fixtures and features to remind you this was a very old building. We were literally amazed and totally impressed. We sent pictures to all of our family. We were also impressed what the city has done with the old Exchange District. Nice tourist district now. Good restaurants and hiking trails nearby. Overall, a very enjoyable stay.

This place was amazing—beyond our expectations! Though there are plenty of places to go within walking distance, you will most likely just want to stay in and admire the art gallery/museum-like charm of this place. There’s so much to look at, yet it’s still cozy and welcoming! Our host greeted us with wine and desserts, told us about the local hotspots, and checked in with us regularly to see if we needed anything. We can’t wait to come back and stay here!!

Best place to stay near downtown winnepeg
Rhis was nothing short of a 5 star rating. Actually it should be 10. The hospitality that the hosts express is nothing short of amazing. My first time to Canada. From booking to checking out, I had ZERO worries. There was sparkling wi e and a beautiful cake for my daughter upon arrival for her birthday. Everything was supplied and best places to visit and eat. The hosts are available 24/7 during your stay and make sure that you know they are there to make your stay the most enjoyable ever! Don't stay anywhere else!!!!!

Absolutely Perfect
We met Martina at the property, she was absolutely lovely and welcoming - complete with wine, chocolates and incredible cake! Her recommendations for restaurants were spot on and responded to my questions via text promptly. The loft was perfect - so well thought out and decorated, we needed nothing more than what was provided, they have thought of every single detail - down to an awesome variety of games. The beds were very comfortable, pillows and linens included - we are a very picky group when it comes to bedding, usually bringing our own pillows with us which just weren't needed here, everything is great quality and really comfortable The location is also perfect, we were able to walk to all of the many incredible local spots within 5-15 minutes (which was really nice to not have to drive - parking spot included too!). We would highly recommend staying here and are already looking forward to our next stay! Thank you, Martina!

Fabulous Loft. Exactly As Advertised!
We were visiting Winnipeg for a family reunion/birthday celebration. This is an amazing Loft in a totally renovated, circa 1910, 4-story brick warehouse. 2nd floor with elevator. The Loft itself is a designer’s dream. Newly renovated, decorated with a unique antique industrial feel, exposed brick walls, quiet, spacious, great kitchen and living area & large bathroom. No surprises here…it’s exactly as described. The neighborhood is relatively quiet with little traffic. One block walk to the Red River with a paved walking trail that will take you all the way to The Forks & the fabulous Canadian Museum for Human Rights. Restaurants, coffee shops & bars within easy walking distance. Private off-street parking space. Building is well secured. Host/owner, Martina, is lovely & more than helpful in getting you checked in, providing thorough explanation of the Loft, the neighborhood & places to eat and visit nearby. She is readily available to respond to any questions you may have during your stay. We will definitely try to stay in this Loft on all subsequent visits to Winnipeg… sure beats any hotel room in Winnipeg.

An absolutely wonderful Winnipeg stay
Our entire experience at The Loft on James went above and beyond our expectations. The photos truly do not do it justice. The loft is beautifully decorated and has everything you could need; even extra charging cables for your phone and chocolates on your pillow! The neighborhood surrounding is safe and the building secure. Martina could not have been any more welcoming, and her knowledge of the history and activities of Winnipeg is unsurpassed. We were greeted with warm hugs, wine and cookies and recommendations for food, festivals, museums, sports and shopping. She checked in on us daily to ensure we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We stayed only a couple of days but already plan on returning for much longer soon. If you’re considering staying in a unique and fun area of Winnipeg, The Loft on James is highly recommended.

Winnipeg, who knew!
Awesome place, every aspect from host to neighbourhood. I did have some reservations about noise that can be generally associated with the redevelopment of an old post and beam building but it was not an issue. No noise. The studio has a fit and finish from furnishing to art that is even better than it appears in the photo's. Fantastic stay in a beautifully appointed and unique industrial style studio!

Like hanging out in a chic lounge
The loft lived up to every great review I read before booking. My family was agog at the cool interior decoration. We actually opted out of some evening restaurant visits in order to stay at the loft and eat in because the place felt like we were hanging out in a chic lounge. I’d definitely come back on future trips to Winnipeg.
