The Shadow Lawn Inn was exquisite! We could not have been happier with our accommodations and the restaurant was beautiful and the food just delicious. The property is a beautiful vintage Victorian Home. If you are visiting Saint John NB this is the perfect quiet place to stay and it is only a 15 minute drive to the downtown. We would most definitely recommend the Shadow Lawn Inn. Thank you for a beautiful experience!

It is a well maintained old building ...but is is an old building and its hard to compete with modern heating (bedroom comfy/bathroom very cold). Bed is soo comfortable as well. It is entirely unique however in the charm, intimate interaction and beautiful dining area (i could not take advantage of this visit but hope to when I return) To be honest, it was the event entertainment (Theresa Malenfant! excellent always) that drew me there...but the overall experience will bring me back.

Liked: Cleanliness
We came for a long weekend / wedding. Inn is very quaint, in a very beautiful old house with a very historical architecture, decorated with good taste, convenient location close to the town centre. Although our experience was good overall, we disliked the breakfast (lack of choice) and our room was a bit outdated (no ventilation in the bathroom and bed frame was very creaky). Also, soundproofing is poor - we could hear other guests in their rooms and people walking in the hallway. Overall nice experience, perhaps a little expensive for the price. Did not eat lunch/supper at restaurant so cannot give an opinion on that side of the inn.

It was a historical building and interesting. No elevators, but we specifically picked this location and paid extra because we wanted a jacuzzi tub. After checking in and being shown to our room, we were told the jets did not work. I didn't believe it just happened that day, and even if it had, they should have contacted me and/or offered a discount. Instead they waited until we were in the room and sprang it on us. The room was still beautiful. Then we were told there was no room for us to eat dinner on the premises, that we should have made a reservation in advance. Would've been nice to know that as well. Instead we were told there was a pub down the street so we went there. The pub's food was awesome, especially homemade desserts! 😋 Kask and Kettle Irish Gastropub. Still, staff was lovely at the hotel, and gracious. Just the rest was disappointing.
