I have stayed in every hotel on the west coast of Newfoundalnd. This hotel is nice etc... but very expensive some times 40% more depending on time of year. The price 1/2 down the road in CowHead are just as nice and allot cheaper.

Not a fancy hotel, but has all that you need. See if "Anchor's Away" is playing in the Anchor Pub during your stay - a great band that plays traditional Newfoundland music with a twist. My uncle, who lives in Stephenville, takes his out-of-province guests here regularly, so that speaks volumes. This hotel is close to the Western Brook Pond...

We were there with a coach tour. The rooms were good. The bathrooms had everything one needs. The staff were friendly and rose to the occasion of our group. The food was ok. Management went to the trouble to bring in entertainment for the bar for us. We learned how to play an 'ugly stick', a Nfld percussion instrument.
Thanks for the review and the wonderful comments. Nothing more fun than playing an Ugly Stick. Hope you enjoyed Newfoundland and that you will come visit us again.
Cheers,

This was the only hotel we stayed in while in Newfoundland. Otherwise, we stayed at inns. So obviously the service was not as personal and friendly as we were used to. Otherwise, the room was very large and clean, the food was great, and the location was perfect. This is a great basic place to rest your head while exploring...

Stayed at the Ocean View for three nights. Beautiful sunset and view. The staff were very courteous and helpful. Our room was spacious and clean. Despite the fact the hotel was full, it was quiet. We will definitely be staying here again on our next trip.
The Ocean View is a terrific base for exploring Gros Morne (which, by the way, is stunning). The hotel is clean; the rooms are spacious; and the bedding - which apparently has been spiffed up of late - is very, very comfortable. I had heard about the potential of noise from the pub, so requested (and received) one of the...

We had a nice quiet room at the rear of the hotel,. Front facing room have good sea views but there is a main road. Liquor store 3 min + family restaurant adjacent.
Hello! Thanks for taking the time to review us. So glad you enjoyed your room and the location. Hope your Newfoundland experience was wonderful.
Cheers!

During the summer a theatre piece is staged in the pub of the hotel, Anchors Ahoy, or something like that. The whole parking taken by pub guests. If you arrive late there is no place for your car, the hotel lobby is packed with pub guests and the person behind the reception is totally down and doesn't even has the...

Hello and thanks for the review. I have never said this in a TripAdvisor response but I feel it might be a touch harsh? All of our guests are important to us and we appreciate them equally...if you received less than appropriate service we do apologize. I recognize our lobby was busy due to the Pub's very popular Anchors Aweigh...

After a long day of driving from the ferry we arrived at this hotel about 5:00PM which was booked in early March, to discover all the bus tour people got the first floor rooms we were on the second floor, no elevator. Rooms are dated, gaps in doors, balcony doors did not work right. This was one the most expensive...

Hello. Thanks for the review. Not sure there are many positives in your review to comment on. Sounds like the experience did not meet your expectation. We generally try to block the bus tours on one floor or the other. Sorry we couldn't accomodate your request but it is very difficult to juggle sometimes as we are running at capacity...

All in all it's good value for accommodation in the area: rooms were spacious and clean. Location is great: a playground nearby, lots of groceries and restaurants around in walking distance. But, as a family, we were disappointed that the room was not equipped with fridge or microwave. Also, no elevator to the rooms on second floor.
Hello and thanks for taking the time to review us...we sincerely appreciate your feedback! We are glad you liked our rooms and the area. Apologize for the elevator...it's been the single longest repair request ever...hope to have it up and running by the end of August. Cheers!
