A gorgeous historic property located within walking distance to downtown amenities and attractions. Cheri was friendly, hospitable, and helpful in making our 2-night stay most pleasant—a wonderfully warm and comfortable facility.

Our host, Dave, and Cherrie were both amazing: welcoming, attentive and offering helpful tips. The house has been lovingly restored and is in a great location: 6 min. walk from the Rooms and easy walking distance to the main downtown sites. Would definitely stay again.

The view from the front porch was of the harbour and channel out to the Atlantic ocean......beautiful. The front rooms of the B&B have this view. The house was beautifully appointed and our host was very helpful.

The Balmoral House is a bed and breakfast run by a great, friendly, young couple. It is located just above the hub of St. John's within walking a distance of all of the pubs and restaurants (which is great as it can be hard to find parking in the core). We were lucky to have the best room in the house and it was lovely, although old fashioned. The place is and probably the best part of our whole stay.

Our hostess in the morning, Cherie, was so helpful and friendly. She shared her experiences in St. John's and was so positive. The owner David was very pleasant and both of them offered suggestions for must see places. it's right downtown so we could park the car and walk, walk, walk!

Exceptional continental breakfast. The property was extremely clean and David the host was very personable. the check in was easy. I would not recommend this property to someone with mobility issues.

This property is lovely. David, our host, is very friendly and knowledgeable. He knows how to run a great B&B. There are only four rooms, two on the second floor and two on the third. No elevator so you have to be able to navigate the stairs. Permit parking was right out front. Very steep walk to the downtown area. Homeless hung out in the park just one house away.

Long walk up & down hills to restaurants & Water street. Some unsavoury characters sitting on step and frequently seen in park next door. Beautiful restored old home. Lovely spacious rooms. Very clean with comfortable beds. Buffet continental breakfast. Air conditioning. Parking on street available.
