Georgestown Inn

I stayed twice at this Inn in August 2023. Before and after my Cycling Vacation with Freewheeling Adventures. 5 nights in total. Cindy & John (the Inn Keepers) made me feel at home. Lots of good banter and fantastic available treats in the lobby near the Guest Fridge, along with always available coffee. The bed was extremely comfortable and I loved the fact I could sleep with the window open. A very quiet residential area. Homemade treats on the bed upon check-in. My private washroom was across the hall from my room and was very clean and well equipped. I enjoyed the homemade hot and cold selections for breakfast (included) and local NFLD menu items. Guests select Breakfast entries the night before. The 'Guest Living Room' has an antique Pump Organ and Cindy treated me to some private tunes on it. Even took a request! Guests also have access to the backyard with chairs, sofas and tables. A great spot to take coffee or beer. This a 'shoe free' establishment and homespun take home slippers are supplied to guests. Shoes stay in the entrance lobby. Only a 15 minute walk to downtown and 45 minute stroll to Signal Hill. I would not hesitate to return.

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!

Can’t say enough about the comfort and hospitality of the Georgestown Inn. Breakfasts were ample and scrumptious and snacks and coffee available all day long. John and Cindy were full of information and both have a wonderful sense of humour. We became fast friends. Location is excellent. Heavenly beds and pillows. Hope to return soon.

Our stay at the Georgetown Inn reflected the true and original spirit of a Bed and Breakfast establishment. Our hosts, Cindy and John, live on the premises and will treat you as an honoured guest during your stay with them. They go out of their way to provide a stress free home, offering amazing comfort and tasty and elegant breakfasts, along with local knowledge and advice. The location is quiet and easy to find and is close to all of Saint Johns ‘must dos’ and John is generous with his time to direct you. Cindy has her home beautifully organized for your comfort and wellbeing and was gracious and welcoming throughout our stay. During the reservation process she was open and frank about what to expect from Nora’s Room, her ‘coziest’ room and about the Inn itself. The extra time in the reservation process really highlights that this is their home as well as an Inn. This is a charming home for the discerning traveller. The Georgetown Inn and your time spent in Saint John’s will not disappoint.

After a two-year delay, we finally made it to Newfoundland. Our first and favourite stop was a 3-night stay at the Georgetown Inn. Cindy and John were warm and welcoming hosts. We absolutely loved the Theresa Suite. It was very spacious and clean. It even had double sinks, a clawfoot tub, and two entrances :) Cindy and John have thought of every detail- from the keyless entries on the main door and each suite, to individualized blackboards in each room, to wrapped cookies on the pillows. We loved the yummy personalized breakfasts each morning. The breakfast room was lovely and had such great character. We were spaced enough for it to feel private but it also enabled guests to chat with one another. Cindy had tons of stories about the area- it was a joy listening to her and getting to know both her and John. We felt like longtime friends by the time we left. John happily gave us day trip suggestions, which did not disappoint. The location was perfect too. It was a short walk to the downtown area and an even shorter walk to The Rooms. Coming back to a 24-hour tea station and daily homemade treats was a perfect way to finish each day. We would highly recommend staying here. We miss it already!

Cindy and John are warm and loving hosts. Their home is incredible and breakfast was delicious! My wife, two children and I spent the night there in August. We can't wait to visit again and highly recommend staying here.

Had a wonderful 3 night stay in July 2022! Cindy and John were so great, helpful with things to do and places to eat. The location was perfect, if you are active the downtown is walkable, or just a short taxi ride if you are not into walking. This was our last stop on our trip and it was a wonderful way to finish our vacation. Breakfast... made to order. There was always a nice treat and coffee available in the foyer. We had such great conversations.
