Georgestown Inn

We have travelled around Newfoundland for 1 month and stayed in lots of B&B's. There's usually something missing in each. Not necessarily something big, but something. Not here. Cindy and John have thought of everything. From the meet and greet when you arrive, carrying up your bags, hand knit slippers you can keep, made to order breakfast, comfy beds, great shower, communal fridge to store your drinks in, etc..... Yes you have to walk across the hall to the bathroom for most rooms, but they give you robes to use. I'm so glad it was recommended to us. I hadn't even thought of a B&B for St John's. We stayed at The Alt at the start of the trip, which was really nice, but I like the Georgestown better, and it's less money with breakfast. It's also really close to most things. Only a 20 minute walk to George Street and you can taxi back for $10-15 if you don't want to walk up the hill at the end of your day. Thanks Cindy and John for a great visit. And thank you to the lovely ladies you have working with you too.

Lovely rooms and great breakfast and in a nice neighbourhood - very well located for getting down into the city centre (although the walk back up the hill seems much easier in the day time than it does after dinner and a couple of drinks)! You can see that Cindy & John take great pride in ensuring their guests get the best St John’s experience and we enjoyed a great start to our Newfoundland holiday with them.

You will keep coming back here guaranteed!!! Everything about this bed and breakfast is incredible, spacious and very heartfelt. Cindy and John are an incredible couple and team and make you feel like you're home. Ellwood, the cat is an amazing little guy that will greet you and make you feel right at home too!!! I can't wait to stay here again!!!

Cindy and John completely renovated this beautiful house from top to bottom! It’s a beautiful place, the breakfast are cooked to your specifications and were delicious. You can even get prepared lunch for your hike! They are so welcoming and interesting. They are resourceful as well. You’ll love coming back in the afternoon for tea and cooked treats in the leaving room!

Gorgeous Bed and Breakfast in beautiful part of the city in St John’s Newfoundland. Went to St John’s for a friend’s wedding. Very short notice and fortunately I was able to get a room here at this remarkable inn. Proprietors Cindy and John are fantastic, friendly and knowledgeable. Inn has been beautifully renovated while still keeping the historic charms. Rooms are beautifully appointed and beds and linens are perfect. Bathrooms have great showers and or baths. I was lucky to have a room with both. Charming hosts and great sense of humour. Bed and Breakfast is truly a delightful mix of Newfoundland and Great Britain. Breakfasts are made to order and let me tell you their breakfasts and homemade jams and baked goods are delicious. Ofcourse I ate way too much. :) I loved my stay here so very peaceful and you are truly made to feel at home. It was everything I could ever wish for in a bed and breakfast and my stay felt very dream like. Our great talks and my stay there had to be my favourite part of my trip. I have stayed in many inns and b and b’s and no one does it better than you two. I’ll definitely be coming back. Thanks again.

Cindy and John are BEST KIND! We enjoyed a stay at Georgestown Inn and wish it could have been longer because it felt like home. Cindy and John made us feel relaxed and like family the moment we arrived and their warmth, kindness and humour abounds and this is the only place in St. John's that we will stay. The Teresa Suite is divine and spacious and I loved having Cindy's Nan's quilt on the bed in front of the fireplace. The whole Inn is impeccably clean and we appreciated all of the special touches especially in the bathroom like the soft soft towels, the hand cream, the micellar water and bath salts. The full bespoke breakfasts were filling and delicious and John's homemade sausage is a must try as are the toutons and Cindy's jams - heavenly delish! We were full each day and didn't need to eat until supper time. Cindy and John helped with places to eat and to see and their recommendations were spot on every time - trust them because they know! We loved the nighttime homemade snacks (mug up) and the jams and the stories we all shared. We will carry our wonderful, adventurous, friendly Newfoundland memories with us always and Cindy and John are a big part of them. Much gratitude to Cindy and John and cannot wait to visit again!
