Reviews and Ratings
The hotel has a nice ocean view if you're on the second floor; however, the lack of privacy due to facing the parking lot was a downside. The room layout with a wall between the bedroom and sitting area was not worth the cost paid.
I found the hotel to be perfect for those seeking an ocean view room, despite the challenge of getting an upstairs one. The location was great for us, especially with our baby and dog, and being able to park right outside the room made access easy. The view across the harbor and the Rocky Harbor Heritage vibe added to the charm, although checking in late afternoon was a slight downside. The dining experience was good, and the hotel's facilities were satisfactory.
The hotel offers spacious and clean rooms but lacks an elevator and assistance with luggage, typical of establishments in western Newfoundland and Labrador. The location within Gros Morne National Park is ideal for daily hikes, providing stunning ocean views from the second floor. Dining options could be improved, but overall, the value for money is good.
I was thrilled with my stay at the hotel. The beautiful sunset views from the Ocean Room were amazing, even though there was some noise from a nearby generator. The room was clean and comfortable, offering a relaxing experience. The location was ideal for exploring Gros Morne National Park and enjoying daily hikes, but the noise from the icemaker was a minor downside ensuring a balance of great aspects and small inconveniences.
The hotel is conveniently located in the heart of Rocky Harbour, making it perfect for exploring the area, but rooms may lack privacy due to heavy curtains. The service is top-notch, catering to various needs. Dining options offered satisfying meals, although improvements could be made. Overall, a good value for those seeking convenience and friendly service.
Our room had a somewhat smokey smell in our designated non-smoking room, with a view directly on the parking lot where guests passed by, but it used to be a room for functions and could offer a chance to glimpse the ocean. The hotel provides a mixed experience in terms of room location.
The hotel offers excellent rooms with no complaints, clean, modern, and a good location facing the parking lot. The service was awesome, but the dining experience was disappointing. The location is convenient, right in downtown, with guests walking past your window. The facilities are well-maintained.
