David was very congenial and made sure we had pleasant and comfortable stay. Parking was easy and the location was within easy walking distance of a number of attractions.

On registering, we received a parking permit for our car, so we could park on the local streets. The manager was very friendly, and gave us a nice breakfast each morning. The room was a good size, and the bed was very comfortable. We left a camera battery charger in the bathroom, and the hotel staff contacted us immediately and tried to return it to us. They were very helpful and sympathetic.

Lovely Bed and Breakfast close to downtown St. John's. Our host provided parking passes which enabled us to park on certain streets in the area free. A variety of breakfast items were available. Close proximity to restaurants and shopping. Quiet and comfortable.

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.

There was no service desk on the premises - the communication was done over the phone or through notes in an envelope. Once you walk in there are sign saying to remove footwear, which was extremely inconvenient each time you needed to go and from your room. The are 4 flights of stairs you have to walk up if your room is on the top floor, with no option for an elevator. The room we stayed in was so small that two suitcases took up the entire floor space. The breakfast consisted of bread and cereal. The toilet paper was thin and cheap. We stayed for 4 nights and felt extreme claustrophobia by the end of our stay. Overall wouldn’t recommend for the price you pay.

The location was perfect and the parking tag we were given was very helpful. The only thing I would change would be a better breakfast. Lacked hot options and should have low sugar cereals.

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.

Cherry, housekeeper, was efficient, friendly and most helpful. She upgraded us for our 2nd and 3rd nights, once a room became available. The property has been brilliantly restored to Victorian/Edwardian splendour. Convenient for all the sightseeing we wanted to do - and for dining (if you can handle the hills! which we could.) We liked the owner, David.

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.
4.0 / 5.0
The home was quite beautiful, the view out The Narrows to the Atlantic breathtaking, the breakfast excellent; Sherry was an outstanding host. Please emphasis how challenging the stairs can be to those with knee problems. It was barely five minutes to The Rooms and 10 minutes to the prime areas of Water and Duckworth. The steepness of the streets to the heart of downtown was challenging. We would have felt a little less nervous arriving late at the airport if we'd had an email letting us know how we'd get the key. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.

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!

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.

This place is an absolute gem!! David, our host, was super friendly and whom we got the privilege to know personally. He gave us some of the best tips while visiting Newfoundland. The location is perfect. We were able to walk to many shops and restaurants downtown and on the waterfront. Lots of parking in front. The breakfast options were fantastic. Lots to choose from. Wine glasses, cork screws, high ball glasses and ice was all available for our use. The house is beautiful and comfortable. Very clean and the service was amazing. I will definitely book again the next time we're here. Highly recommend it!!

The B&B was elegant and inviting. The owners took meticulous care of it. With a touchpad entry and a charming living room to greet you upon entry, extra wide staircase for travelling up ad down with baggage and a large dining room for eating a well presented continental breakfast, the common areas were well designed. Our room was spacious, with a good bed, sitting area with view of the St. John’s harbour and colourful row houses and a pleasing ensuite. We loved having a parking pass provided, free of charge, that we could use all over St. John’s during our stay, thereby making parking a breeze. We parked along the road outside the B&B and did not have any trouble finding a spot close to our lodgings. The only difficulty we encountered perhaps because it was an older home was finding enough empty electrical outlets for charging our all five of our devices at the same time while we slept!
