We were there for a wedding at the Gypsy Tea room, so it was perfect. We stayed for five nights and were able to use the lobby breakfast room for our small group to gather in the morning and the evening, it was perfect. We were able to easily walk out the door for shopping and good food. Staff was friendly and accommodating. I have a few suggestions... there needs to be a grab bar or grab bars around the big shower/tubs... hard to get in and out even for younger folks. Also, my mattress was comfortable, but sagging, needs to be turned or replaced. All else great!! Thank you!

Beautiful stay in historic hotel!
What a beautiful stay in downtown St John's! Room was great size, comfy bed, good shower. Location is great. Only downside is their elevator only goes to 3rd floor. So if your room is on the 4th floor like ours then have to hike up extra level by stairs
