It would days to fully take everything in, as the the house is full of treasures. Also, I had the best, hottest bath in years. Perfect location to walking up Signal Hill and the coast.

Very good location, beautiful B&B, very kind owner!

Everything was great. Lovely house, good location, friendly host. I gave it a 4 because the breakfast was not what I usually expect for a bed and breakfast -- cold, serve yourself. On the other hand, we were free to eat when we wanted..... I would stay there again.

Excellent and personal host, clean and well maintained accommodation

Beautifully kept B&B-interesting decor and lovely antiques. The host was helpful and very informative about this unique place to visit. It is centrally located to most places in the area and about 15 minutes from the airport.

Me and my wife loved staying at Gower Manor! Bill gave us a splendid tour of the historic building and was very helpful throughout our stay. Loved perusing through Bill's collection of old books. Hope to come back!

Beautiful, full of antiques and treasures, maticulously cared for. Could be a museum!!

The house is a beautiful old home with an eclectic decor of antiques. Bill certainly has an eye for interior design. Central to downtown SJ near restaurants, bars and the harbour. It is a short drive to Signal Hill and other attractions. A bit hot with no AC on a sweaty summer night but definitely a cool place to stay.

Beautiful historic home full of antiques and memorabilia. Close to downtown and harbou

Bill was kind, helpful, and an excellent host.

This is just the loveliest place to stay. If you are thinking to book, don't hesitate. It's a museum and a BNB in one, amazing host, great location. Just book it.

This was a wonderful stay in a beautiful house. Bill was a fabulous host!

Great restoration! Kind host!

old world charm, very clean and quiet, host was very personable, had a lot of knowledge of the area, loved our stay.

Beautiful historic B & B, makes you feel like you’re in a different time period. The place is so well taken care off. It also has a nice social room to meet other guests and a large kitchen where you could prepare some of your own meals. Nice and quick breakfast options to get you started for the day.

Lovely bed and breakfast

Great location and very friendly host

Very friendly owner

Bill is the attentive and very helpful host of this clean, very well maintained, centrally located heritage house with lots of character.

Had a lovely stay at Bill's bnb! It was all clean and well organized, i felt very welcomed and safe! 10/10 would stay again and recommend!

This was the best experience I've ever had while travelling!!! The house is fantastic!! It has its style, the spirit of old European times, cozy and lovely. If I had an opportunity, I'd probably spend a week just exploring this house itself. It feels like you are living in a mini version of Downton Abbey or any other British movie. The owner goes above and beyond to accommodate his guests and provides a real Canadian hostility. The area around is nice to explore as well. You'll find many cute colourful houses around, restaurants, nature and night life. I'm looking forward to when I can come back there!! Highly recommend this place!

I love the closeness too cityscape and the downtown accessibility. The old renovated beautiful was extraordinary. Old antiques placed in wonderful locations EVERYWHERE. I had a wonderful experience.

My 3-night stay in "Harry's Room" at the Gower Manor was fantastic. The beautifully restored house and the antique items were the highlight of the visit - just sitting in my bedroom or one of the sitting rooms, or walking down the stairs to go out the door, revealed interesting new details to enjoy. In terms of amenities, my room was spacious and clean, and the bed was comfortable. Little touches like a basket to carry my toiletries to the bathroom showed a great deal of attention to guests' comfort and convenience. There were plenty of supplies for a simple breakfast (coffee, toast, cereal, muffins, etc.) every morning, and guests also had access to the kitchen and fridge to store and prepare their own food/drinks, which was appreciated. Finally, Bill was a great host - he was friendly and available to answer questions, and it was lovely to chat with him about the house, things to do in St. John's, and restoring antiques. If you're seeking a comfortable bed and breakfast experience with unique character, I would recommend the Gower Manor!

Close to downtown, friendly staff

The house is tastefully decorated with beautiful antiques and collectibles. Very cozy and quiet atmosphere.

I had a nice stay! This B&B looks like a museum.

Beautifully restored historical house with a huge collection of memorabilia, spacious room and shared bathroom. Spotlessly clean. Breakfast is self-service and a bit meagre. Would have been nice to have some fresh fruit, eggs, or some bagels.

Staying in a museum is a fascinating experience. Even more so were the demonstrations of how some of the house and music worked. Every room is picture worthy and Bill is a very accommodating and entertaining host.

Gower Manor was an interesting historical property but having said so it did not have a/c nor could we open the window to get some airflow. It happened to be 29C and hot. It was convenient to have access to kitchen and self serve breakfast but I do appreciate the comfort of someones home and enjoy being served the breakfast as well as having chat around the table

Staying at the Gower Manor is like staying in a museum! It's unique. Every day I discovered new details. Every part of the property is filled with collectibles and antiques. It's quite the trip to walk around it and take in souvenirs of royal occasions, gramophone records, old soda bottles... There was even a musket above my bed! If you haven't stayed in a REAL bed and breakfast for a while, then this is truly a trip down memory lane to a time when all seaside hotels were like this. I'm from England and it is just a reminder of how life used to be. Bill, your host, is a charming man who makes time to help with any questions or concerns. He took time out of his day to help me find a walk I was having trouble locating, and recommended places to eat. My bed was more comfortable than I'd expected it to be; the room was very clean and full of restored furniture as well as memorabilia. There were glasses and plates in the cupboard. Breakfast is basic, but plentiful, with flexible times rather than the old standard of "sleep in and tough luck", and there is space in the kitchen fridge for guests to store their own food. This place won't be for everybody. It's an old house, so there is no air conditioning, though a fan was in my bedroom and helped to cool me down. Some will find the museum vibe overwhelming rather than charming. If you've spent a lot of time in modern hotels, then a communal bathroom takes some getting used to. If you Embrace Gower Manor, it's unforgettable.

Wonderful host. Great location. Exceeded all expectations. I would love to return on my next visit to st johns

Very well located unique property. Lots of historic artifacts. Bill was very attentive and hospitable
