Earle of Leinster Inn Style

Lovely B&B with the most beautiful Victorian decor. The waffles for breakfast were amazing, and Chelsea was able to accommodate all our dietary asks. Thanks for a great stay!

Perfect place to stay in Saint John. It's the perfect launching point for walking the city but also easy to drive into and out of. We stayed in the Lord Edward room, which takes you back in time and encourages you to explore the nooks and crannies. Special thanks to Chelsea, who made our stay extra special, serving incredible breakfasts and wonderful hospitality.

Unfortunately, our stay at this lovely bed and breakfast was only one night, but it was a fantastic night and morning. The owners called me prior to our arrival to ensure I had instructions for parking and how to get into the room and main space, as well as to get preferences for breakfast the next morning. We did arrive after they had left for the evening, but we were able to check into our room with ease.||The Inn is an old Victorian house near downtown Saint John. It features a number of rooms within the house, a couple rooms with private entrances attached to the back, as well as a carriage house that has a few additional rooms. It also has a lovely courtyard/garden with tables for chilling outside, which we did!||We stayed in the Shamrock Room, which was decorated in an old farmhouse style. The room featured a sink in the room and a small bathroom with stand up shower stall and toilet. It also had a small kitchenette with a fridge, microwave, and coffee maker, all of which was unexpected. There was a counter with stools for eating in the room. The bed was comfortable and soft, though the room got a little warm as there is no air conditioning. Thankfully, the air outside was cool and the neighborhood quiet. So we left a window open.||The breakfast the next morning was phenomenal, and the owners were very friendly and fun to speak with about the town and our travels. They were very knowledgeable about the area.||The only downside is that they only take cash or e-transfer (Canadian banks only). So I had to walk a few blocks to go to an ATM, which was not an issue. I'm pretty sure they told me it was that way when I booked, but that was several months prior to our stay. So I likely forgot (or assumed e-transfer meant Venmo or PayPal, as I am not Canadian).||I would certainly stay here again if I find myself in Saint John. It was a perfectly lovely night in a cute little city.

We couldn’t have asked for a better experience here! We stayed here for nearly two weeks and everything was fantastic. Our hosts were absolutely fantastic. Amazing home cooked breakfast each morning and they even took us around on of our free days to see some local sites. Highly recommend staying here.

My wife and I had a great stay here during our road trip in the east coast. We stayed for two nights and would have loved to stay more. The room was very spacious with lots of old trinkets everywhere. The outstanding thing about this place is the hospitality of Dwight and Cheryl. The breakfast at this place was top notch. Cheryl personally cooks the breakfast for you and her waffles stuffed with fruits was amazing!!! Had some great conversations with Cheryl during breakfast as well. Wonderful place and centrally located to everything as a tourist!

Dwight and Cheryl made our stay in Saint John so wonderful! We cannot recommend this BnB enough. Cheryl makes a great breakfast each day to start your morning & Dwight comes in to help as well. We loved our chats with them over breakfast both days we were there. Although the idea of having breakfast with people we don’t know seemed intimidating at first, Dwight and Cheryl made our stay so comfortable. It was also very nice to meet the other guests. Thank you so much for the 5+ star hospitality, it was a wonderful experience

My wife and I visited the Earle of Leinster B&B in the middle of our two-week vacation in the Canadian Maritime provinces. We had found this place online, and it look cozy and "home-like," so we went with it. From the very moment we arrived, Dwight & Carol (the proprietors) made us feel incredibly at home. Dwight has a smile that never seems to leave his face, and they both try their best to make you feel very much at home. Our room, which was on the second floor, was in the front of the house, and was incredibly comfortable. It was decorated entirely in Victorian style, with all kinds of attractive decorations and furniture throughout. Dwight seemed to know where everything in the house had come from, much like a historian in a country museum. We were further treated to a WONDERFUL breakfast on each of our four mornings in St John, with plates laden with bacon, eggs, waffles, homemade jams, and lots more. And they always seemed to make sure that everyone in the kitchen was comfortable with one another, which made for great conversation. They even had a billiard table in the cellar. Dwight had warned us that the parking on the street could be a little bit tricky, but it was never an issue. They also kept us updated on all kinds of places to visit around the local area. In summary, WE LOVED this place, and truly enjoyed the help and friendship of the owners. I would recommend this to anyone, for a comfortable and affordable stay in St. John.

Words cannot describe how in love I am with this gorgeous, historic B&B!!! It is the most beautiful, charming and well-maintained historic place to stay! We stayed in the Lord Edward room and it was full of amazing historical things: old cameras, a spinning wheel, typewriter, etc! The four poster queen bed was SO lovely and comfortable to sleep in, and the hosts are eager to talk about the historic aspects of their B&B and St John in general, which I loved! They are so welcoming and kind! Breakfast was delicious, and if you’re in search of a good seafood meal in the area, Grannan’s was AMAZING! Thank you so much, Dwight & Cheryl! Will definitely come back here!!!

Wow! This place is amazing. Cheryl and Dwight are the best hosts. We stopped here on a road trip up to Prince Edward Island and they were so hospitable and helpful. The room we stayed in was out back in the carriage house...very warm and cozy and clean. Just what we needed. They even allowed us to use their washer/dryer to do laundry. They gave us tips on what to see in St John and where to eat--check out Britt's Pub! The breakfast was one of the best on our trip...homemade cinnamon rolls, an egg casserole, fresh fruit, and good coffee. Loved getting to know Cheryl and Dwight and the other guests. The room was very reasonably priced and the location is a short walk from the heart of St. John. Wish we could have stayed longer. Would definitely go back.

We stayed here while in St John as we always prefer a B&B to a motel or hotel. Nice older building in the centre of Old Town within walking distance to the City Market and lots of restaurants. The owners are friendly and welcoming and seem to genuinely like people. A huge plus in this business. The room we had was full of old items to match the style of the building. Our only issue was that the beds were very high and hard to get in or out of. Our room had a single and a double and the single had two box springs as well as a full sized mattress on the old wood frame. I realize they did this so the two beds would look the same height but it was a challenge to get in to. A very tiny bathroom was in the room which was nice but the shower was very small so if you need space to move around in there you may want to stay in a different room which may have a larger shower stall. The included breakfast was French Toast & Fruit with Bacon on the side. Huge portions and very tasty. We went out to get latte's as soon as we got up as The Earl of Leinster only offers drip coffee and we are addicted to coffee with more teeth then drip can achieve. I would recommend this cute little B&B if you are looking for accommodation in downtown St John.
