Welcome to our B&B

Stay with us at By The River B&B, a distinguished, historic home on the banks of the storied and beautiful Saint John River, near the heart of the vibrant capital city of Fredericton. We are close to all the best that Fredericton has to offer, from the Boyce farmer’s market to historic Officer’s Square, the Beaverbrook Art Gallery, and the home of New Brunswick’s Lieutenant Governor. We are also conveniently located near the South Riverfront Trail, part of 87km of walking and biking trails throughout Fredericton, including the historic rail bridge over the river now known as the Bill Thorpe Walking Bridge.

HISTORY

Our fully renovated B&B combines classic historical features with modern convenience. The house dates back to 1903, and we have lovingly updated the home to accommodate 8 guest suites whilst retaining many original features. Read more about our fascinating history here.

There are 8 rooms each with a unique look and feel, that vary from the deluxe turret suites, to sitting room suites to traditional and basic rooms. All have lovely bathrooms and all the modern amenities, most rooms have King Size beds, and all are air- conditioned. Prices range from CAD $135 to $208 (breakfast included).  Each room is named for something significant in Fredericton …. a river boat that would have steamed past, a renowned children’s author, and the First Nations original name for the Saint John River.
