Best, most unique stay in St. John’s!
This is a must stay in St. John’s! It was such an interesting place and felt very homey. The owner, Bill, is very approachable and kind. The building has a very interesting history. It was so cool to stay in this Victorian styled home! It is walking distance to downtown, the rooms, and Signal Hill! Great location. Would 100% recommend this to people seeking to stay in a place with historic significance and homey feel!

We loved this Victorian Jellybean row house! The house was full of antiques and memorabilia from all years! It was very unique! The location was amazing (even if there are hills!) We would stay again next time we visit St. John’s

I loved my stay at the Gower Manor so much when I first arrived that I booked it again before my return home. The Manor is charming, full of treasures and impeccably clean. Bill is full of information and stories. Highly recommend.
