This was the splurge place for our trip. Based on the pictures and the previous reviews, I knew it would not disappoint. And it most certainly did not. Beautiful, clean and comfortable. There were times we did not want to leave the room! Nice location, in the city but just enough away. Very clean. Quiet. The Postmaster's Bakery is about a block away. Also, parking permits available for use - very nice!

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.
