Frequently Asked Questions
What time can we arrive and leave?Unlike hotels and resorts, check-in and check-out times are quite flexible in order to help you get the most out of your time in the area and never be rushed. We do, however, ask that arrival times be communicated and updated if necessary so we can plan our own day and be ready and waiting for you.
In general, check-in is between 2:00 and 9:00 pm and check-out is 11:00 am.
Late-night arrivals are discouraged as they can be disruptive to other guests - and the same innkeepers welcoming you will be rising early to begin breakfast preparations.
Is breakfast included?Yes, we are a traditional bed and breakfast and all rates include a full hot breakfast each morning. Breakfasts at The New Brunswick have become quite legendary and are made with real ingredients and always catered to individual dietary restrictions. It really is the most important meal of the day and we want to start yours off right!
Breakfast is served each morning in our formal dining room where the adventures of the day ahead are planned and those past are shared.
Along with fresh coffee, tea and orange juice, we serve homemade granola with greek yogurt and fresh fruit to start, a homemade muffin and then a hot entree (often featuring Les’ house-made sourdough bread).
How far are the nearest shops and restaurants?There are dozens of great restaurants just minutes away for a special night out and no need to drive if you are planning to partake in libations.
A complete list of our current top local dining recommendations - with reservation links - will accompany your reservation confirmation.
Please note there are no taxis here - and Uber, Lyft or any kind of ride share service is not available in St. Andrews.
Where can we park our car?Free on-site parking and indoor bicycle storage is provided.
Can we recharge our electric car?We do not have an EV charging station at our property as we are too small to afford this expense.
There are two Electric Vehicle Charging Stations just a block away - at the WC O’Neill Arena and at the Algonquin Hotel.
Are pets allowed?Although we are animal lovers ourselves, pets cannot be accommodated as a courtesy to other guests who may have allergy concerns.
Is smoking allowed?We are a completely non-smoking establishment (smoking allowed outdoors on rear deck only).
How is the internet?High-speed wireless internet (5G) is available throughout the property.
Are there walking or cycling routes around St. Andrews?The St. Andrews Van Horne Trail is a paved active-living trail (non-motorized) extending 2.1 km from Water Street to the far side of Katy’s Cove on the old rail bed. It’s a perfect place to take a delightful walk while enjoying the natural beauty of our region!
We are happy to provide a map and/or directions.

Cancellation policy?Should you find it necessary to cancel your reservation made directly with us, we require notification at least 21 days prior to the arrival date or you will be charged for the full amount of your stay. We will make every effort to re-book rooms cancelled within this time and a full refund (less service fee) will be offered if we are successful. Stays shortened after arrival are subject to the same cancellation policies. Due to the non-refundable fees charged by the credit card company, a $20 service fee per night, per room will be deducted from all refunds for cancelled reservations.
Do you accept one-night reservations? We gladly accept one-night reservations in two of our rooms, but strongly encourage you to spend at least two nights with us to enjoy all the beauty and attractions of St. Andrews by-the-Sea.
How to book a room?It’s always the lowest guaranteed rate to book directly with us by using the “Book your Stay” button and link in the header or footer to our secure reservation service. Third-party booking platforms will always add extra fees which in turn increases the price for you.
