Historical, modern, invigorating, or calming. Each of these Inns provides a unique way to experience St. John’s and Eastern Newfoundland matched with the comforts and hospitality Newfoundlanders are known for.

Please be sure to call ahead for reservations and any restrictions or guidelines to be aware of.

1 The Doctor's House Inn & Spa - image

The Doctor's House Inn & Spa

Set against the backdrop of Trinity Bay, the historic Doctors House is situated on 100 acres of land that includes ocean views, an animal sanctuary and rolling hills for hiking. Though their luxurious linens will make you want to stay in bed all day, this Inn is a paradise for those who love to explore both the rugged countryside and the culinary wealth of the area.

Take a tour of a local micro-brewery or winery during the day and at night settle in for an evening of fine dining at the Secret Garden Restaurant, located in the Doctor’s House, allowing you to unwind after a day outdoors. Only an hour from St. John’s and yet you will feel a million miles from anywhere.

What others had to say:

“My fiancé, his parents, and I all stayed at the Doctor’s House, and we couldn’t have enjoyed ourselves more. The grounds are beautiful, and we spent the first hour of our stay simply exploring and admiring the scenery. If you’re a nature lover, this place is an absolute must.”

2 The Inn by Mallard Cottage - image

The Inn by Mallard Cottage

Surrounded by craggy cliffs and colourful fishing sheds, The Inn by Mallard Cottage is the idyllic place to escape and unwind. Take a hike along the East Coast trail up to Signal Hill in the day, then cozy up for a relaxed and refined dining experience at one of Canada’s Top 100 restaurants, Mallard Cottage, which is conveniently located next door.

Situated only 10 minutes from downtown St. John’s, The Inn by Mallard Cottage will make you feel like you are hours away – transporting you to the quaint and picturesque fishing village of Quidi Vidi.

What others had to say:

“The building is an 18th century Irish style cottage that it has been recognized as a national historic site of Canada, as being one of the oldest wooden building in North America. Need I say more? The rooms are marvelous, large and fantastic view. There is a great restaurant just outside by the same owners which also you need to visit for a great food experience.”

3 Fogo Island Inn - image

Fogo Island Inn

Fogo Island Inn provides both the feeling of unity and the luxury of solitude, all colourfully swaddled in a handmade quilt. Situated at the edge of the North Atlantic, sometimes referred to as one of the four corners of the earth, Fogo Island Inn is located on an island off of an island.

Built on the principles of sustainability and respect for nature and culture, the Inn belongs to the community. All 29 suites offer floor-to-ceiling windows, opening onto the most powerful ocean on the planet and are furnished with handmade luxuries.

What others had to say:

“From the décor of our room to the farm to table food in the dining room grown locally, from walking and driving tours of the island coordinated by the staff to the daily visits in the lobby by Make and Break, two large Newfoundland dogs, we became immersed in the culture of the island. Guests and staff, and guests and guests began to feel like family. Staying at the Fogo Island Inn was an extraordinary and unforgettable experience.”

4 The Guv'nor Inn & Pub - image

The Guv'nor Inn & Pub

A celebration of rich English traditions paired with an old-world experience, The Guv’nor Inn is steeped in history and offers distinctive character and comfort. Centrally located near Memorial University of Newfoundland, Arts and Culture Centre, Confederation Building, and historic downtown St. John’s, The Guv’nor exceeds the expectations of today’s thrifty traveler in comfort and value.

The thoughtful amenities include easy access to the adjoining Guv’nor Pub which means you are never far from a pint or a delicious meal.

What others had to say:

“We stayed in the Sweeney Suite for a few days and absolutely loved every minute. We were very impressed with the atmosphere and decor of our room as soon as we walked in. The staff at the pub were always so friendly and welcoming every time we went down to have a meal. It all made for a very special and romantic few days. We will definitely stay here again and recommend it to our family and friends.”
