Simple but clean and stylish room which was quiet and had a giant puffin on the wall (cute!). Didn’t eat at the restaurant but the pastries at the adjoining cafe were delicious. Great location, loved having a water view room.

Great location. Directly on the downtown street with shops, pubs, restaurants. Every other street is a steep uphill to get to, but Water St is ideal. Plus the view from the rooms towards the harbour is nice. It's a working harbour, but you could still get a nice view, probably better than other hotels.Cafe had great coffee and breakfast (quiche and frittata). St. John's is much cooler during July than we are used to in Toronto, and has a lot more rain. Loved that the hotel supplied umbrellas at the front desk, but sometimes the wind made it too hard to keep them open. Rooms were quiet and comfortable. Very modern looking. Gym has a bike, treadmill, elliptical, free weights and a cable machine. Small, but adequate for our 5 day visit. Staff was friendly and accomodating.

Very central to the city. Eco friendly. Clean. Room and bathroom incredibly small but effectively organized and efficient. Takes some time to figure out the lights and air conditioning. Found it quite stupid that the bathroom door didn’t have a handle. Arrived at 11:45 pm - staff at the desk wasn’t very friendly.

We were impressed with the kind reception desk welcome (especially Bailey), the comfortable lounge area, the soundproofing in the room, the extremely comfy pillows and mattresses, the great view of the river, the recycling program, the proximity of walking to downtown shops and restaurants, and being able to borrow an umbrella at the desk. Negatives: not having hot water for a shower and/or washing hair on the morning we left. Also, the in-hotel restaurant Terre was way over our budget. We had a great meal we could afford at the 24-hour Celtic Heart Irish pub a 10-min walk down Water Street. Overall we did enjoy this Alt hotel and I’d reserve again as long as I knew the water temp in the shower would be tolerable.
