    Bathroom- The Gables
    Robert S.

    This hotel has a great location just steps from Flager college and the historic downtown area. It's quiet and peaceful. Linda checked us in and she was very informative and very personable. The BnB has disposable face masks and individual hand sanitizer for guests to take as they go out into the city. The common areas are nice and very nicely decorated in a Victorian style. There's a fridge with water, seltzer, sodas and individual bottles of wine to take during your stay. The breakfast is made up of a two course meal. The first day we had eggs Benedicts and French crepes, on the second day we had quiche and apple crisps. The food is outstanding. The preparation, presentation and taste of the food is akin of a 5 star restaurant. Hats off to Linda for a job well done. Our room was the Gables. A nice room with a balcony, king size bed and a long nice marble bathroom. Our bed was comfortable and very nicely dressed. Being an older home comes with its shortcomings, like not having many plug outlets for the electronics and not enough wastebaskets (only one in the bathroom). Parking is easy right behind the house. Great place to stay while in the St Augustine area.

    This was our first time at a Bed and Breakfast. We really enjoyed staying here. The employees were extremely friendly and accommodating. We loved our room and the private entrance we had. The front porch was a nice place to sit, talk, and drink coffee in the morning. It's a perfect spot if you want to walk around downtown. It's a very short 3 minute walk to The Lightner Museum. Breakfast was delicious and we really enjoyed the ambiance. I would highly recommend staying here.

    Front porch. Peace and quiet all day.

    Wonderful stay at the Cedar House Inn. Beautiful inn highlighted by the porches, location, delicious breakfast and delightful staff. There are zero things to take issue with unless you don't enjoy a quiet and peaceful place to stay.

    This was our very first trip to St Augustine and our first time staying in a bed and breakfast. Neither my husband or I knew quite what to expect, but any uncertainty was washed away as soon as Susan greeted us at the door...quite literally. Earlier in the day, hours before check in, the weather showed blue skies and sunshine; my husband and I parked our car in a public lot and set out on foot to explore St George Street. Just as we were leaving lunch, the skies opened and we found ourselves unprepared and drenched. We sloshed our way back to the car and arrived at the Cedar House Inn a sopping wet mess. Susan leapt into action and wrapped us in towels, helping us inside towards warmth. When she heard it was our first B&B experience and our first time in the city, she spent several minutes touring us around the home, sharing the history, and then helping us plan our visit. We stayed in the St Augustine Grand room on the first floor, right off the dining room, and found the space to be not only beautiful, but comfortable as well. The room had its own private entrance, but you could also enter through the main or side door for the house. The parlor was like something you'd see in Downton Abbey, thoughtfully decorated and with several comforts (complimentary wine and port, board games and puzzles, and scrumptious cookies!) While we only saw Susan on the first day for check-in, she certainly set the stage for the hospitality we'd expect while staying in the house. Rachel was on hand during the day and greeted us each morning with a smile. The breakfast service was simply outstanding, with a delicious 2-course meal to start the day off right. There are 27 Bed and Breakfasts in St Augustine, but I'm fairly certain we picked the best one.

    I can not rave enough about the Cedar House Inn!! Hands down it was 5-star treatment from making to reservation to checking out! The rooms have private entrances from within the Inn as well as outside making it convenient to explore the town and return late without disrupting other guests. Our room was perfect for my husband and I. Very clean, bed was comfy and the room included water and robes to use during our stay. Shower was walk in which was very nice. The bathroom was quite small, but for us that was expected due to the age of this gem. What was INCLUDED in our stay was: Bottled water Fresh baked Chocolate chip cookies Coffee Wine Ice Parking Gourmet breakfast The breakfast was incredible! We started off with a fresh fruit cup topped with whipped cream and then eggs baked in a bacon cup aside a bed of grits drizzled with pesto. The hostess mingled with the guests during breakfast enough to be engaged but so much that you couldn't eat. Cedar House Inn will forever be our go to place while visiting St.Augustine!!!

    It has taken me a while to get to this review, but we stayed here on Halloween night with family. My mother-in-law was getting married at the Inn, and so she and her husband booked the entire Inn for both families to stay. It was lovely! The Inn has Victorian decor with beautiful antique furnishings, fixtures, and decor. From the wallpaper to the dishes, it is clear that the owner takes great pride in owning and caring for this historic home. My family stayed in the king bedroom off of the dining room - I wish I remembered the name of the room. Each of the bedrooms has a name. The room was spacious and had plenty of room for us, our bags, a pack-n-play crib, and baby gear (stroller!). Did someone say location, location, location? While not right in the thick of the beautiful seaside shopping area, it is still walking distance. The Inn was perfectly located around the corner from the historic College and city hall. The neighborhood was quiet - really, I cannot say enough great things about this place! The staff was attentive throughout the entire stay, and the homemade breakfast served to us the next morning was delicious. No detail was missed. This is such a charming spot to spend your overnights in St. Augustine. Oh! How could I forget the wedding?! Our parents wanted a steampunk-themed wedding, and that's what they got! They were married on the front porch by my husband, and it was the perfect spot for the 14 of us. The Inn helped serve the cake and champagne for the toast... truly, the staff was so helpful. Just a tip: If you have children under the age of 12, it is my understanding that you cannot stay here with just your family. We had three children under the age of 12 and so our parents had to buy out the Inn for the evening.

    We just had our third stay at Cedar House and as usual the hospitality is wonderful. Very accommodating with dietary restrictions and even remembered my husband's iced coffee. We loved our private balcony where we enjoyed a late dinner (takeout). The staff is very friendly which is another reason we keep returning. We are already planning on a return trip.

    We have been staying at a St. Augustine B&B once or twice a year for 10+ years now. I realize things that are important to us may not be important to someone else, so I tried to itemize things to help out. Location Its located on the edge of the old historic area near the Lightner Museum. You are a 3 minute walk away from the center of town. There are other B&B's closer to pedestrian only St. George Street but you are going to want to walk to this area anyway. Parking They have onsite parking that accommodates all guests. Not all B&B's have this feature. Offsite parking can make loading and unloading more of a chore - especially if it is raining. Exterior The building exterior is charming and picturesque. The wrap around covered porch adds to the character. The porch continues on the left side and up to the 2nd floor where it is uncovered. The porches offer a great space to relax during the cooler evenings. Interior Common Area Incredibly beautiful! Lots of design details to keep your eyes busy and delighted. There are very large first floor common areas with a sitting area, game area and the primary dining room. Wine, port, bottled water, soft drinks, and freshly baked goodies are always available. Upstairs there is a hallway that connects all the second floor bedrooms. Bed & Bath We stayed in The Gables room on the 2nd floor. It is a beautiful large second floor bedroom located on the right side of the house. There is a small private balcony with two chairs. A ceiling fan and flat screen TV are also present. You have your own in-room thermostat to control your room temperature - awesome! The King size bed is very comfortable. A deep and relatively narrow bathroom has a large walk-in shower. Breakfast Breakfast is served at 9am. The two course breakfasts are an event. Breakfast is served (rather than a buffet). The presentation is only outdone by the decadent taste. Meals typically alternate between a savory or sweet entrée. You will not go away hungry or disappointed. I am not typically a breakfast person but I really enjoyed the meals both days we were here. It is also a wonderful opportunity to talk with and get to know your fellow guests. Innkeeper Cyndi and her staff are amazing. There are many reasons why Cedar House Inn won #1 B&B in the U.S. and #2 in the world - and they are all rooted in the passion and care that Cyndi has for her inn. Overall We have stayed at several St. Augustine B&B's and I would have to rank Cedar House the highest overall experience. It is our current favorite. I included some photos too.

    We had the best time here at our first Bed and breakfast experience. Cyndi and her staff made our trip here unforgettable. Check in / Check Out Process Cyndi sends an email before hand with the times and calls to let you know if your room is ready earlier than expected. Check in/out process is so smooth Parking Parking is reserved for guests, extremely helpful in making it easy to leave car behind and explore town by foot Food Fantastic service and delicious food. Cyndi and her staff use fresh herbs from her garden. Breakfast is served at 9 am. Coffee and tea are made available as early as 7 am. Water, Juices, wine are made available for guests Already dreaming of our future trip here.

    What an amazing stay! We originally got married here years ago and came back for our anniversary. Jonathan and his staff are the absolute best! There is so much to do within walking distance- Historical places to visit, great winegood food. If visiting St. Augustine, you will not regret staying at the Cedar House Inn.

    This was the 2nd time my husband & I stayed at the Cedar House Inn. We loved it so much, that we got my In-laws for Christmas a 2 night stay here. We joined them too. Just got back from the Easter weekend. Now, Shane & I typically stay in hotels, but if you ever make it to St Augustine, you must stay at The Cedar House Inn. It's better than the Ritz. Cindy does a fantastic job making it a pristine & cozy stay. She makes you feel like family. Not only that, she gives excellent recommendations on places to go & eat. She set us up for dinner reservations for one of our nights stay that was top notch. Everything is within walking distance too. The breakfast each morning is absolutely amazing...Fine dining with great taste! It's the best breakfast ever! I can't rave enough about this place...all I can say, is you have to experience it for yourself. Our first time we stayed in the Augustine Grand room. Really cozy & nice. This past time, we stayed in the Viscaya room and booked my In-laws in the Augustine Grand room. I'm sure each room has its own charms.

    I absolutely loved this bed and breakfast. Rachel and her staff were very personal and professional. My husband and I stayed here for our fist anniversary and so glad we did. The room was cozy and very inviting. Oh and the shower was refreshing. The house it's self was beautiful and full of charm and history. They made the best breakfast I've ever had. Mouth watering to be exact. You're so close to everything you could walk and so we did. Thanks again and we will definitely be back. Loved this place!!!

    There's definitely a reason this B&B is #1 on TripAdvisor, and it's because of Cyndi and her amazing team.

The owner renovated the inside so that it's got modern amenities and sleeps six people comfortably. The first time we visited the place, it was like an awakening. It was the PERFECT place for my husband and I to get have our wedding. Of course, we had 85 guests, so the ceremony had to be elsewhere, but this was perfect for the reception. It was the perfect size for everyone to move around freely and still have a small dance floor. Also the price is crazy good. You will NOT find a more reasonable deal in town. Bring in your own vendors and you can create a fabulous wedding on a modest budget. I'm not just saying that because I am the proud bride. I'm saying it because it's a recession and fabulous doesn't normally come cheap. And I don't throw the word FABULOUS around breezily. I'm deadly serious. Anyway, you get the place in all it's charm for three days and two nights. Then you can rent it for an extra day for a good price. And really, you just have to get rid of your trash because they clean and do laundry for you. How is that not perfect? Go there because it made my very special day amazing.

    The Sanchez House is a romantic venue that we rented for our St. Augustine wedding this past…read moreJanuary. When originally searching for a wedding venue we had a few must-haves, which included a location with historical character, in driving distance from Orlando, and located in a town where out-of-state visitors could enjoy exploring. And so we focused in on St. Augustine. I had a good gut instinct about the Sanchez House from the moment I discovered them online, and I must shamelessly admit that I stalked the websites of every couple who had their wedding at the Sanchez House. We quickly booked a visit to the Sanchez House, because they are only able to hold 12 weddings a year due to being zoned in a residential area. We met with the owner, Blake, who shared with us the history of the home, gave tips from other weddings held on the premise, and shared some of his favorite vendors. When we experienced the venue in person, we fell even more in love with the charm that was evident around every corner of the house! The SH offers a brick courtyard, artificial turf front lawn, large gathering room, dining room, kitchen, office, two bedrooms, small one-car garage, and an attic. Not only can you hold your wedding events at the house, but you are able to stay there, as well. This allowed us and our bridal party, 6 in total, to stay at the house. So convenient! After booking the Sanchez House, we decided to extend our celebration into an entire weekend. Our events spanned from 50 to 90 guests, and SH accommodates them comfortably. The house is in an excellent location by the bay and walking distance to historic St. George Street. At the SH, we were able to select our own vendors. We held our ceremony in the courtyard which transformed to the dance floor. The front lawn was donned with a heated tent and tables on the coldest Florida winter day. It even snowed lightly! Guests had the chance to mingle throughout the house in the dining room, gathering room, and balcony. I would note that the parking around the SH can be challenging, but we gave plenty of parking options for guests through our wedding website and social media, and suggested our guests to stay at one of the nearby hotels or bed & breakfasts. I highly recommend the Sanchez House for any couple looking for an intimate St. Augustine venue!

The tasting that they host for clients was super helpful, and allowed us the opportunity to try the food us and our guests would be eating on the big day. We had the privilege of working with Giselle, who was INCREDIBLE! She was so attentive and responsive to any small or big question that we had. We had a lot of last minute changes with guests and she was so kind and understanding throughout. The day of the wedding itself was amazing, and everything went more smoothly than we could have imagined. We didn't have to lift a finger! Giselle was so supportive and calming throughout, and made us feel like we truly felt like royalty. We will always be grateful to the White Room staff including but not limited to the bartenders, servers, Giselle, Rebeccah, and everyone else involved with the venue. Everyone went above and beyond for us. Could never thank everyone involved enough!
