"Bonne Esperance House - officially designated a heritage property and a National Historic Site this past April, is definitely a find.

"Demanding nothing less than the best accommodations "because we deserve it," our mothers opted to stay at the four-star Bonne Esperance House Heritage Inn on St. John's famous Gower Street, a genuine Heritage Site itself.
