CanadaNous avons passé que deux nuits à l’hôtel mais nous avons beaucoup apprécié, son confort, son emplacement, sa jolie déco, son ambiance et la grande gentillesse de David qui ne savait pas quoi faire pour nous rendre service. A noter, pour les automobilistes, David fourni un badge de stationnement valable sur presque la totalité de la ville.

Balmoral is a Victorian townhouse with spacious rooms and spectacular views of the old St. John's, Signal Hill, Cabot Tower and the magnificent Atlantic Ocean. The building was constructed in the late 1800's as a private residence of a British merchant family.

Legal information
Private hosts
Hosts who have registered with Booking.com as a private host are parties that rent out their property or properties for purposes which are outside their trade, business, or profession. They are not officially traders (like a global hotel chain) and therefore may not fall under the same consumer protection rules under EU law, but don’t worry, Booking.com provides you with the same customer service as we do with any stay. This doesn’t mean that your stay or experience will be any different than booking with a professional host.
