Provider-sourced guest reviews.
Really loved the home-cooked breakfasts. Owners were terrific hosts, very personable and knowledgeable about the area.
The room was a little crowded with furniture.
The breakfast & coffee were delicious. The bed was very comfortable, shower was great. Really my only disappointment was it advised a room with sea view.... but the trees across the street were too high and we could not see the sea.
Extremely pleasant hosts in a beautiful Victorian home. Excellent breakfast! Was a good location for us to travel in that area.
The breakfasts were top notch DELISH! The atmosphere was warm and welcoming. Very relaxed. Our hosts Greg and Lorraine are lovely people. So helpful and informative with our travel plans.

Lovely people, lovely breakfast. Clean comfortable room. Lots of great recommendations for things to do.
The location was a bit noisier than I was expecting, in terms of the road and traffic.
We recieved a very warm welcome when we arrived and were well looked after during our stay. Enjoyed speaking with other guests during breakfast. The room was very well equipped and comfortable. Free parking right at the property was also appreciated. The host was very helpful in suggesting places to go and routes to take for the most scenic views. A lovely stay overall.
Excellent breakfast.
No shoes in the house?? Unusual for sure. Bed was only accessible from one side. As an older person it was a bit of a challenge!
The Spaniard’s Room is a lovely old house with an olde world feeling. We only stayed two nights but were able to see lots of interesting local places including the Cable Station Museum at Heart’s Content. Our room was very comfortable, the bathroom was spacious and everything was clean. There are several restaurants within a short drive and one good Chinese restaurant almost next door that you can walk to. Our hostess and her sister gave us a warm welcome and we enjoyed meeting them.
The house is on a very busy road - we had no trouble sleeping, but there is plenty of traffic. One thing only we found off-putting. On leaving we paid with our credit card and were faced with a choice of tip amounts, 18% and up. This seemed very unusual as we have never been expected to tip at a B&B before and found it very uncomfortable while the owner was holding the machine. In the awkwardness of the moment I may have missed that there was a “no tip” option, but then again choosing that would have been uncomfortable too. We left feeling disappointed at being put in that situation. Perhaps a “tip jar” in the front hallway would be a better option.
Nos hotes nous ont offert un magnifique petit déjeuner, fait maison, à la carte. Ils sont très gentils et disponibles
Breakfast was great . Ready for us when we sat down . Staff was wonderful , friendly and very helpful about the hiking trails .
Owners were very nice. Facilities were more really good for a building that has been on the go for a long time. Great breakfast.
The hosts were friendly and helpful. The beds were comfortable. Breakfast was great!
bon petit dejeuner. hotes très acceuillants
bruit de la rue. salle de bain sur le palier. demande de ne pas mettre de parfum. pas de jus d'orange ou de fruit inclus dans le petit déjeuner
Superb, home cooked breakfast. Superfun and accomodating local hosts who we really enjoyed chatting with. Queen bed was very comfortable, but the room itself was a little cramped (although we have certainly had worse!). Bathroom was a good size, however, and had quality fittings. The room even had airconditioning--most unusual in this type of place, especially in Newfoundland!
Breakfast was interesting but we stayed in many bnb's over 18 days and this was the only one where you had to check off what you wanted and you couldn't choose juice PLUS tea/coffee. Had to be one or the other. Other bnb's made incredible breakfasts and all homemade. No eggs/bacon/toast at other bnbs. This one was the cheapest but would recommend charging a little more and making it more of an experience.
No common area for guests to go. All other places had a common area such as a parlor, living room, kitchen etc. Only place we could use other than our bedroom was the outside patio.
L'accueil des proprio et le déjeuner
Tapis dans la chambre.
Hosts were great.
My partner is allergic to dogs and the owners have one. If you ask people not to wear perfumes and fragrances you should tell people about the dog.
Beautiful property. Lovely rooms, and very comfortable. Great breakfast, and enjoyed our hosts.
The cleanliness.
The bed was extremely uncomfortable.
Private, large rooms, fabulous breakfast
The breakfasts were great! The other travellers were very interesting and fun to chat with
The hostesses were welcoming and informative. Great location for exploring this part of the Avalon peninsula. Very clean. Character property from 1901
The house is a treasure! Beautifully maintained heritage home, clean and comfortable. So lovely to visit. The house is right on the road, but we thought it was quiet and peaceful, and they offer earplugs if guests want them, but we thought it was absolutely fine. If you are cycling the T’Railway, this B and B is perfectly located, and they were very bike friendly, offering us secure bike storage. There’s a nice walk down to the water right across from the house. Our hosts were kind, helpful, delightful people and our homemade breakfast was incredibly delicious! Definitely visit this gem!!
The owners were so welcoming and friendly, gave us great information and directions to hiking trails, sites to see and what to expect along the way. The breakfast was exceptional, the owners provided a breakfast menu each day, all you had to do was select which option you prefer, the time you would be down for breakfast and they cooked it up for each guest. Can’t say enough about the great hospitality they showed to each and every guest. Best accommodation we stayed at, highly recommended.
This is the most beautiful house and the hosts were so helpful and accommodating. The breakfast was really good. We would love to come back!
Lorraine and Greg were excellent hosts… very well organized, comfortable and spotless room, and delicious breakfast options.
Nothing, everything was good
The breakfasts were delicious! Pancakes with partridge berries!! Oatmeal with blueberries! Fantastic. But even better were the conversations with other guests and the hosts. We truly enjoyed that. Ask Greg to play a few tunes on the guitar! Plus they gave us a perfect itinerary for our visit.
Really nothing.
The hosts were great and the breakfast was excellent.
Nothing
Friendly and welcoming hosts Group breakfast to share travels
Greg and Lorraine were wonderful hosts with lots of ideas for things to see and stories about local history on the peninsula. Greg cooked wonderful Partridge Berry pancakes for us for breakfast. "The Captain's Quarters" was a cozy and warm room. The house is an old 2nd Empire structure which has been lovingly restored. We really enjoyed our stay and although the house is on the highway, we didn't hear any noise. Definitely 2 thumbs up!
Easy to find. The bed was comfy, owners were great, friendly & helpful. Breakfast lively especially the homemade partridge berry pancakes.
Very clean
Cluttered, dated
Breakfast was good, location was good, facility a little dated but quite comfortable
Very pleasant, friendly & helpful hosts with very good breakfast! Nice to meet other guests also.
Well located and comfortable stay. Friendly hosts.
Lorraine and Greg were great, lots of information on tourist sites in area. Great breakfast and comfortable bed.
Twas a blessing to find this! Lorraine and Greg were so welcoming and kind. Tips, knowledge and breakfast excellent.
Greg and Lorraine ang Gracie the dog were charming friendly and very informative. we enjoyed laughs and great discussions. We were made to feel very welcome
Made you feel it was a pleasure to let them serve you...
L’endroit était impeccablement propre et l’accueil agréable. Le déjeuner était bon et fait maison. La maison est un peu vieillotte, mais bien entretenue. Il manquait toutefois quelques petites commodités comme une cafetière ou une bouilloire à même la chambre. Peu ou pas d’espace extérieur pour relaxer ou prendre un verre. L’emplacement m’a déçue : éloigné des principales attractions et peu de restaurants typiques à proximité.
La situation géographique.
Fantastic place. Very cosy and welcoming. Totally recommended.
Loved this heritage old home and all the great decorations to complement the home.
Wonderful people, very friendly.
Clean Comfy beds Great hosts Great breakfast Love their NO scent policy Nice size junior suite
Lovely traditional b & b. Hosts were very pleasant, great breakfast!
Beautiful Heritage Property. Friendly hosts. Very comfortable. Enjoyed our stay
Definitely not a good place to go. The owners tried to overcharge 230.00 on my credit card twice then a charge of 149.50 was on my credit card. it was a nonauthorize charge. Found out this after we have left once I had cell service to check on my credit card. When I saw this, I tried calling and they wouldn't answer so I used my husband's cell. The husband answered right away. He told me to talk to his wife who was suppose to call me but never did. I have tried calling multiple times but they wouldn't answer. Don't trust these people.
Excellent breakfast. Super friendly hosts.
I would have liked to have a kettle available to boil water for tea or coffee in the evening without having to ask the host to boil water for us in their kitchen.
Heritage homes are unique places to stay and visit. This one was great
It was great, no concerns
Right from the time we entered, we felt welcomed. The hosts were friendly and informative. The room was a good size, the beds were comfy and everything was super clean and well looked after.; Breakfasts were great. The garden was beautiful. We stayed for three nights and couldn't have wished for a nicer experience We recommend the Spaniards Room Heritage Home to anyone visiting the area.
Accommodations were lovely and breakfast was very good. Lovely hosts!
Would have preferred ground floor room because of mobility issues.
Our hosts were helpful and lovely. Breakfast was delicious! It was a perfect stop over en route back to St. John's.
Breakfast was perfect. Hosts were excellent. Facilities are updated and well-maintained.
Location is on a busy street, so noise was a factor, not terrible though.
Lovely house, lovely people.
Nice room, & breakfast & friendly
We received a warm welcome from the proprietors in spite of the fact that we arrived early, and they were in the throes of vacuuming. They recommended an excellent local cafe for lunch, and later in the evening shared their outdoor space and conversation over a glass or two of wine. Thanks for a fabulous newfie welcome!
Good communication, clean and comfortable, hospitable and caring owners.
It was all good.
Enjoy their gardens conversation. Breakfast was great company was good.
Excellent service, amazing hosts.
Owner operators friendly and willing to please. Great interaction with visitors.
Friendliness of staff
Noice of highway. They are marketing it as a heritage heritage and and have consequently filled it with too many trinkets ag objects that fill the needed space. Needs more power outlets
While we were wondering about the property because of initial perceptions that the exterior needed some attention, we could not have been happier with what we experienced, including very friendly hosts, a nice room and a very nice breakfast. We would highly recommend it.
Owner and her breakfast were outstanding. Older place with that kind of charm.
We had a wonderful stay at The Spaniards Room. The hosts Greg and Lorraine were both very kind and welcoming. The home itself is gorgeous and filled with so much history. The sleeping area and bathroom were clean, spacious, and comfortable, with air conditioning and cable television provided. We cannot recommend this bed and breakfast enough for those visiting the area.
The accommodations were very comfortable and very spacious. The hosts were very friendly and ensured we had all the information we needed. Breakfast was absolutely awesome. I highly recommend this BnB to any traveller or just someone wanting a quick getaway.
Everything was awesome. The only thing I can comment on would be to have a small mini fridge in each room. This would allow guests to store fruit, pop, or even water, or medication. Other than that maybe some extra glasses and a coffeemaker with the appropriate supplies would be great. When you live in Newfoundland, got to have your cup of tea before bed. But frankly, this place is a gem. The history of the place is astounding and surrounds you from the displays of pictures, furniture, etc.
The hosts were friendly and the breakfast was good.
The room advertised a sea view but that is definitely a stretch. The room also did not have a lock on it which is the first time I've encountered this. I'm not questioning the hosts' honesty but there are other guests who could potentially have access to the room while away from it.
Hosts were very hospitable and accommodating Gave good tips exploring the area
Very cozy and clean. Friendly and helpful proprietors. Excellent breakfast - still trying to figure out how how she made perfect poached eggs!
Lorraine was the perfect host. She gave us a warm welcome and was so helpful in planning our local outings and activities. The accommodation was beautiful, in a period house with memorabilia and comfortable furnishings. This is a great location for touring the Baccalieu Trail. Perfect for our needs.
Nothing. This stay was everything we hoped for.
Breakfast was included. You had several choices and was also nice to sit with other travellers and share stories.
Lovely heritage property. The owners were very accommodating and made us feel right at home
Incredible hosts who go above and beyond to make you feel at home. Breakfast in the morning was delicious and filling and the home made jams with it were a bonus. Thank you Lorraine and Greg for a wonderful stay!
Friendly staff. Ease of check in. Bedroom was warm on arrival but fan quickly cooled off room. Comfortable bed, clean bathroom...very satisfied with stay. Great full breakfast in morning.. Unique character of room and home with historical building and welcoming owners.
all good!
The breakfast was very good
The owners were very nice! We will definitely be back!!
Very cute home with such gracious, down to earth local hosts who not only welcomed us into their home, but gave us great ideas of where to go and what to do. Comfortable bed, clean sheets and towels, private bathroom, and a delicious breakfast. 10/10 would go again (and we did - booked an extra night because of how great our experience was).
