    This Bed and Breakfast(Feast) is the way to go

    February 16, 2013

    Recently , my wife and I with some friends stayed at Johns Gate for the wine festival, We were pleasantly surprised with the the sumptuous Breakfasts we were served, the rooms and Bathrooms were meticulous and the hostess could not have been more responsive to our needs which in all honesty were few because everything had been thought of. I highly recommend this B&B and will be staying there again on our next trip

    BIG BIG Thank you to Meheroo

    November 12, 2012

    Cannot give John's Gate B&B enough accolades. The beautiful home is well kept, inside and out. The rooms were lovely, and had many, many imeneties, from each room having its own private bathroom to the little dish filled with candies (and my favourites, caramels) and the nightly chocolates. Tv, wireless Internet, iron, ironing board, blow-dryer... Our hostess Meheroo, was a delight, from offering suggestions to make our stay more enjoyable / comfortable to the exquisite gourmet breakfasts. Thank you Meheroo !

    Very elegant establishment.

    August 09, 2012

    We had the king room. Immaculate - bathroom looked like it had never been used. All immenities provided including ice water in a thermos in the room, chocolates on the bedside tables. Meheroo made dinner reservations for us and provided coupons for local attactions including free wine tasting at a local winery. As requested I was provided with a vegetarian breakfast, very gourmet and beautifully presented. M. Bergshoeff - Markham, Ontario

    a Review of John's Gate

    June 18, 2012

    John's Gate is a fabulous and beautiful B and B, a short walk to the main street in Niagara on the Lake. Spotlessly clean, all amenities, lovely toiletries, very comfy beds plus a huge sitting area to enjoy your drinks or on the patio/porch area. You also have access to a refrigerator and juices, the breakfasts are over the top gourmet delicious and the hostess is a lovely woman. We have been to many B and B's in the region and will definitely return to John's Gate - it is 10 star plus. Julie in Ottawa

    Wonderful Experience - will definitely return.

    May 22, 2012

    This was our first stay at any B&B and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. From the minute we arrived, our hostess Meheroo was tuned into our likes and dislikes to ensure we had a great experience. The inn is inviting, clean and comfortable as are the rooms. Our breakfast experience was nothing short of fantastic. You share a large dining table with the other guests so conversation with new and interesting people is also a part of your B & B experience. Breakfast began with really good tasting coffee and your choice of two fresh squeezed juices. I opted for the mango, orange, pineapple and was not disappointed. We were then served fresh fruit with a light yogurt sauce in a beautiful fluted tulip cup. The main course was smoked salmon with deliciously fried potato slices, eggs, and sautéed Portobello mushrooms and fried tomatoes. Shortly after the main course we were offered freshly baked banana bread (awesome) with fresh whipped cream. The location of the B&B is perfect, close enough to all of the main attractions yet far enough away that you feel like you are in a secluded quiet neighbourhood. The walk into town takes only 20 minutes or so and is through lovely tree lined streets. My husband and I plan to return in late summer and I would definitely recommend this B & B to persons looking for a home away from home.

    Chef Worthy Breakfast

    May 07, 2012

    This was truly an unforgettable stay. Meheroo was so attentive. We arrived early and wanted to just park our luggage and come back at check-in time. It was like home only better - she booked a wine tour for us- The Grape Escape-who pickup us up within 30 minutes and after tour delivered us downtown to a restaurant we had picked. Everything is spotless and comfortable, but the gourmet breakfast she served was worth the trip! Three courses and all incredible. Chef worthy.
