Would definitely stay again and loved the Rocky Harbour area. Lovely sunsets over the Harbour.
Pros:

Excellent restaurant. Lots of variety and great portions. Our room was upgraded without question as for some reason we were in an accessible room which wasn't needed. Even with tour buses arriving during our stay it didn't impact us in any way. Great location to get to other places in or near Gros Morne.

Cons:

No complaints.

Didn’t Happen
Pros:

The front desk was very efficient finding alternate accommodation as booking.com overbooked the location.

Cons:

Wish I could have stayed there. It looked very nice and the staff were friendly and pleasant.

Great spot if visiting Gros Morne
Pros:

Great entertainment. Also liked that we could purchase wraps and yogurt onsite to pack with us for hiking.

Cons:

We had garden view - not nice view but didn’t spend much time except for sleeping so didn’t matter. Carpet in room is a bit old. Front desk very friendly and helpful.

Terrible
Pros:

We didn't get to stay here despite having received conformation and paying in full three months in advance. My Mom (who is 75 years old) booked two rooms for my husband and I, and herself, to stay one night on our way to L'ans aux Meadow. One day before our stay we were informed that our rooms were not available. They confirmed our bookings but could not accommodate. In this part of Newfoundland it is virtually impossible to find a last minute place to stay. We literally faced sleeping in the car.
Totally unacceptable.

Family vacation 2026
Pros:

Beautiful hotel and staff. Manager and staff were more than accommodating and friendly. Our room was an ocean view room . The view from our front patio was spectacular. We were within walking distance to restaurants, shops and ice cream shops!

Spectacular location, be sure to specify a second floor room facing water.
Pros:

Location right across the street from the waterfront is spectacular. Facilities are clean, nicely laid out and perfect for families, tour groups or individuals. access to a nearby pool, which I didnt use. Large restaurant onsite with windows facing the water and a pub with live music a patio below it.

Cons:

"ocean view" room was on the lower level, facing the parking lot, like a motel room, with a patio door at the foot of the bed looking at parked cars and people walking by. The receptionist kindly moved me to a second floor room facing the "garden" which is another parking lot, but has a field and mountains in the background, and at least no one looking in the window. At this price, I would have expected breakfast to be included, but it is not.

Beautiful view
Pros:

Check in was fast and easy. No breakfast but has restaurant. Had dinner in the pub and breakfast in the dining room. Good, friendly service. Food was very good. Was in the suite that overlooked the bay. Room was clean. Internet was open to the public which made it very choppy and that is the only reason for the 4 vs 5. Bus tours stay here.

Très beau...mais choisissez une chambre avec vue sur la mer !
Pros:

C'était très bien. On a eu beaucoup de plaisir au pub où on a assisté à un « Kitchen Party » mémorable.
Par contre, la vue sur le stationnement enlève énormément de charme à l'endroit. Les chambres avec vue sur la mer sont certainement beaucoup mieux.

Excellent endroit pour y séjourner quelques jours ou plus.
Pros:

Personnelle très gentil et attentionné. Literie et lit confortable.
Très propre, beau balcon avec belle chaise Adirondak donnant sur la mer.
Nous avons aussi apprécié le restaurant Bistro et sa magnifique terrasse extérieur.
Il y a aussi un espace où nous pouvons avoir de l’eau fraîche pour remplir nos bouteilles très bien aménagé ainsi que de l’eau pétillante. À notre disposition à cette endroit des pots à eau à remplir si nous n’avons pas nos bouteilles.
Ce soucis de l’environnement est très bien donc ça évite les bouteilles plastique jetable.
Endroit très bien situé en face du bordwalk de la baie de Rocky Harbour.
Il y a aussi plein de restaurant et café accessible à pied.

Cons:

Absolument rien

Pros:

Reception staff was very informing. During our first evening, excellent service in the dinner room Clean rooms. Easy access.

Cons:

Unfortunately, our experience was dominated by the bar personnel. I could not ask for a beer, after a long drive, around 18.30 h as a the space was booked for a bus group at 19.00. Staying at the hotel, made the difference after 10 minutes asking. And, of couse we left before the bus load was arriving. The second day, the bar staff was already asking to settle the bill from our table and others, while we still wanted to order some food. Also we were not near closing time or a change of staff.

A wonderful place for lunch
Pros:

Our tour group stopped here for a pre-arranged lunch which consisted of ½ of a croissant sandwich of ham & cheese and ½ of chicken, tomato soup and 2 tarts made with baked apple berry (cloud berry) and partridge berry. Everything was delicious, especially the tarts as it was my 1st time trying baked apple berry and partridge berry. Our big group was served quickly by friendly staff.
