Our hostess, Joanie, is so special! Her care made our stay even better! Her home is lovely, very warm and inviting and IMMACULATE! Her breakfasts were fit for royalty! So delicious, and she waited on us, serving us like we were family. She was also a wealth of knowledge and information about the community and the best, fastest way to get to the airport amid morning traffic! Thank you, Joanie!!

This bed and breakfast exceeded every expectation! The location was perfect — close to everything yet peaceful and relaxing. The home itself is a beautiful historic property full of character and charm. Every detail was thoughtfully maintained, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The breakfast was absolutely amazing — fresh, delicious, and clearly made with care. The hospitality was outstanding; the host made us feel genuinely welcome and went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for comfort, history, and true hospitality. We can’t wait to come back!

We were so glad we picked this Inn, it was perfect in every way, from the comfy bed, to the decor, to the wonderful breakfast. But most of all, Joanie, the host, was friendly, knowledgeable and told us so much about the area! We truly enjoyed our stay, and highly recommend it!

Wonderful private home with excellent hostess and full breakfast meals. Well worth the price. Owner had a fascinating history. The house had a great view of the water and was less than a block from a park and paved walkway along the water and into town. Highly recommended!

Our stay with Joan exceeded our expectations, from the proximity to the seaglass beach across the street, to the lovely easy walk along the water to the large state beach…the charming eclectic decor… enjoying Joan’s stories about her curated collections and whimsical finds..the lavish breakfasts & treats…it was a breath of fresh sea air combined with the best conversation & food & the treasure hunt for sea glass that made for an unforgettable weekend! Thank you Joan!

The most gracious host we have ever been blessed to meet. She doesn’t rent rooms, she honors and warms guests into her home. All the positive reviews are completely warranted. Incredible stay!

10/10 Exceptional

Having travelled all the around the world, I can honestly say this has been one of my favourite and most memorable stays. Although listed as a hotel, the Hydrangea feels more like an exclusive homestay. Joanie is the perfect host: she’s so warm, welcoming, and friendly – and, as other guests have already said, her breakfasts are absolutely delicious. The rooms are comfy, cozy, and quirky. The location is a short drive or 10-15 minute walk to Gloucester centre along a beautiful seafront path. While everything about the Hyrdrangea is lovely and comfortable, it was Joanie who made our stay such a memorable one. She even allowed a couple of our friends to join for breakfast for one morning!
