JAG Hotel

Spent 1 night there last evening. Upon arriving, found out we couldn't park in the parking garage as you needed to be checked in to get a key card to access the garage. Once my partner went in to check in we were told the garage was full and we could park in staff parking lot across the street. That lot was full aswell. So we ended up parking at a parking garage away from the hotel and paying a extra 30 dollars to keep our car safe. So long story short, they cannot accommodate parking. Secondly the restaurant in the hotel was very small, and full. That was our own fault for not making a reservation, so please if you plan on staying and dining, make a reservation or you will have to travel. Now for our room. At first it didn't seem like there was anything wrong, but throughout the night we noticed our TV didn't work and the seat at the desk was ripped and peeling. Nothing major but for the price and rating of the hotel, should have been better. Long story short, this is one of the more expensive hotels in st.johns, there are many more that have been more impressive and accommodating. I hope with the new add on they will have things fixed. Staff was alright. Didn't ask how our stay was so we didn't voice our concerns as we were already fed up and the staff at the desk seemed like they just wanted to get us out as fast as they could.

What can I say? This place is amazing, and in the perfect location for walking to bars and restaurants! We love shopping as well and the stores are only a short drive away. (Tip of the day...Better to drive for shopping and walk for bars when selecting a hotel) The room we had here was very cool. Musical artwork in the room and the furnishings just made it feel a bit ritzy if ya know what I mean. Very Very cool. All the folks we dealt with there are very accommodating and know what customer service is. If you're headed to St John's for some shopping, restaurants and hitting up a few bars, you've found your spot. If you're looking for a really nice, upscale hotel/room for a very decent price, you've found your spot. Enjoy your stay!

I recently stayed at The Jag for three nights with an older family member. We experienced a truly flawless stay.||Exceptional customer service from Ryan, who greeted us warmly at the front desk upon our arrival and was around to help in a caring and friendly manner on numerous occasions during our visit. He is an asset to your organization! All other staff, including valet and restaurant employees, were top notch as well. ||The hotel has a great atmosphere and is well located for exploring St. John’s and the surrounding area. The food at Exile restaurant for breakfast was wonderful, and the gym facilities were high calibre as well. ||We highly recommend The Jag to anyone planning a stay in beautiful St. John’s, am will definitely be returning on our next trip there.

We just popped in to eat at Exile and look at the huge personal collection of music art on the walls! The food was amazing . We had the dick and tenderloin…. Savory goodness. Followed by a lemon 🍋 cheesecake. The music playlist is phenomenal and pipes in from the office and cannot be tampered with. The attention to detail is spot on with the seating, monogrammed napkins and glasses.

Our room, #409, was a corner premiere suite overlooking the harbour. It was a wedding gift from my aunt. Absolutely perfect stay!! Immaculate room, all amenities present, quiet & excellent room location. Our stay included the valet parking, an exceptional option as downtown is limited in spaces. The Jag Hotel itself was so cool!! Great vibe, excellent music & truly, the best service we’ve ever experienced. The rooms & hotel itself is super clean & anticipates guest’s every need. The Exile restaurant was delicious; scrumptious breakfast, amazing ambience & very friendly staff. It was an optimal experience from beginning to end! Love the turn down service, fantastic piped in soundtrack, artwork & truly awesome & knowledgeable staff. We’re from St. John’s & can easily & highly-recommend The Jag Hotel to everyone. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Thanks so much!!

What a great hotel!!! From the moment you step foot into the lobby, you feel like you have walked into a music museum. The decor has paintings of rock and roll legends everywhere. The chairs in the lobby are these big, orange, whimsical ones that would be right out of a Tim Burton movie. The tables in the bar are made up to resemble vinyl record albums. The rooms are very clean. The bathroom was very nicely done. The shower was huge with rainfall shower head option. Very relaxing. A nice touch was housekeeping brought a delicious milk chocolate bar and turns down your bed in the evening. We had some appys in the Exile restaurant and they were delicious. We enjoyed our stay and highly recommend and would definitely stay again!!!

We stayed here for four days. Had a wonderful time. The staff were completely amazing. The restaurant in the was amazing. No complaints at all. The room was always clean and stocked with towels. Turn down service at night. The valet parking staff were very helpful. I would highly recommend this hotel for your stay in St. John’s. I had a choice of where to stay and I am so happy that I picked The Jag Hotel. I want to thank everyone for going out of their way to show us the Newfoundland hospitality.

Great decor throughout the public areas as well as the guest rooms. ||Room service was reasonably priced for breakfast. Keurig in the room and a stocked fridge with extra room for your stuff. ||Exile lounge had great fried cod and salted cod cakes. ||Not many printed info sheets, but the tv had some information. The front desk is open 24 hours. ||Housekeeping twice a day. Walk-in rainfall shower. Dental floss in the bathroom was a new one for me. |Beds comfortable. The pillows were a bit thick for my taste, but I found one that was comfortable and days what counts.||Our tour agent reserved valet parking for us. We came in close to midnight, so it was nice to have it taken care of. ||I would definitely stay here again when I am in St. John’s.

Stayed at JAG hotel for a conference this past week. The rooms were spacious and the staff was helpful. Also had a drink and onion rings at the Exile (hotel bar) which was good.

Been a lotta years since I stayed at the Hard Rock Hotel in Vegas, but they do the rock theme here every bit as well as HR did. Decor in the rooms, hallways, and open areas is on point. Music throughout the hotel is perfect. Exile bar is beautifully executed and the bartenders are just what you want--attentive without being disruptive. Walking distance access to all the bars, music, and restaurants on George Street is icing on the cake.

I had never heard of this hotel, they seems to be in a chain that belongs to Canada so it is a somewhat small enterprise here for them, however they have some big ways to make themselves memorable. this is a classic rock inspired hotel, the classics are playing here in the lobby 24 hours a day, the lobby is nice and simple with plenty musical figures all over the walls. Checking in we were so pleased with the staff! they were friendly and very helpful, the hotel is so immersed into its back story that you get a drink ticket with your check in, just like you probably could get a drink ticket at a concert! such an amazing little touch, but the amazing touches do not stop there. The rooms are pretty nice, the bed is AMAZING! the mattress they have in that bed had me not wanting to go out. so good! they also have ropes for convenience inside the room. The shower had a rain shower style, just such a great shower head! and the little toiletries as far as shampoo and such, they smelled so good I almost wanted to eat them. I could definitely tell that they put a lot of thought on every detail in that room. The view from the room was not super great, perhaps cause I was on the second floor. they also had an amazing little touch, every day during the afternoons the staff would leave us a box of gourmet chocolates on our beds! the chocolates were so good and we really appreciated it! this was an amazing experience as far as I am aware. if I had to point one negative, to me the breakfast was the only thing I would make a little better, there is no self service breakfast here, it is all a la carte and that style for the traveling folk can delay a lot a tourist as now you have to wait for your food instead of having a quick bite from a buffet. Also I a couple of times found some molding food on the bread baskets and that can be a bit of a sanitary issue. overall the hotels is pretty amazing with lots of character and a deep sense of hospitality. the breakfast part of it needs some work. I would definitely stay here again.

I actually found this hotel on Trip Advisor not yelp. This is a really nice boutique type hotel. The beds are super, super comfortable. Both my GF and I remarked how comfortable the beds were! The rooms are very well appointed. Nice bathroom, rain shower etc... Flat-screen TV... you get it. The theme is rock and roll.... OBVI.... So, in the elevator, lobby, bar/restaurant you've got really good tunes pumpin'. Rolling Stones, David Bowie, Lou Reed were some of the repeats... I thought it was just delightful. The location is awesome. You are walking distance to everything, but on the outskirts of the action so it's quiet, and there is plenty of free parking on the street (we had a rental car). All of the Staff here. Extremely, extremely friendly and helpful. Any type of recommendation you need. Directions. Shopping. Sight-seeing. All spot on. Also, they have an awesome bar/restaurant. We ate here multiple times. Their breakfast is phenomenal. I loved the fish cakes. The moose sausage (a seasonal special), cod fish tacos... yeaaaahhh, yeah. you like that. I like that. I would stay here again, and highly recommend it.

I love this hotel. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful, the rooms are full of light and have clean, modern decor, and the shower - LOVE that rainforest shower with the iceberg water amenities. Re: another yelper's remarks about noise: we stayed on the side away from the harbor, so can't attest to the noise on that side of the hotel. On our side, nothing woke us up except our alarms. It was extremely quiet. There's a restaurant (Exile), and a small gym room, and valet parking. I love the fresh, creative flowers in the lobby, and the interesting photos scattered throughout the hotel - JAG loves musicians! This is a playful, interesting, intelligent hotel. We were so happy with our stay here in August 2015.

Absolutely DO NOT stay at this hotel! We got a suite however the staff neglected to mentioned that at 3:30am the shipyard which is 50 feet away is ACTIVE ! The staff was super friendly and tried to move us but they had no other rooms...this was a disaster for our business which was to perform a concert. The noise is CONSTANT! As a responsible Yelper not just bitching here-Do not risk staying at this hotel if you plan to sleep.

The aesthetic of this hotel is rock and roll done tastefully, you will find yourself captivated by the many music prints lining the walls of the halls and rooms. The staff are so helpful and welcoming a highlight of a recent stay at the Jag was a few hours in the Jag van touring the city with our Newfoundland driver discussing the sights and bantering as locals are famous for. The hotel even provides fabulous large umbrellas a necessity for the changing climate of the city. The beds are dreamy and at night the staff open the corner of your bed and leave chocolate on the nightstand making the amazing beds even more inviting.

The Jag Hotel is one of the worst hotels I have ever been in. I booked for three nights but left within three hours. Room was a disgrace. Manager admitted to my friend that the pictures on their website were taken when the hotel first opened - in 2003...Almost two decades ago! - and have never been updated. Room was tired and jaded; dingy. Pillows looked as though they had been chewed by a Rotweiller, spit out, and then put into a pillow case. Upon check in the lone receptionist was so busy answering the phone that she barely had time to attend to the guests, while other employees behind the desk stood around doing absolutely nothing. The decor might appeal to some people but frankly looking at photos of a haggard Mick Jag everywhere puts me off my food! And why would anyone have a Rolling Stones themed hotel in St. John's Newfoundland???? Do not stay in this hotel! It is dreadful, sad and feels and looks grungy. I moved to the Alt Hotel just down the street and had fantastic service with a room that truley has a view to die for. TCS

Awesome hotel every time in in the city I stay there. Friendly and helpful staff.always clean and comfortable.

One of the best hotels I have ever stayed at. The rooms are nice, the staff is SO FRIENDLY, And the location is perfect. I would highly recommend it to anyone.

Nice clean and spacious rooms. Nice beds and two tvs in room. Didn't care for their restaurant menu - avoid the cod tongue!

Excellent hotel! Staff was very friendly and service-minded. I was there on business and had trouble with the wireless (because of security settings on my laptop), needed to have things printed/scanned etc. It was all promptly taken care of by the receptionist. Nice and newly decorated room, nice big bathroom, nice big shower, big and comfortable bed. The food is good, there is a nice down-to-earth atmosphere at the hotel. It's located centrally in St. John's. All in all a very good experience!

We had an excellent four nights! No noise. Dining was good. Cheaper than "The Keg" and no hour wait to be seated. The chocolates at night were simple, but appreciated. Staff was great. We stayed there August 12th time period. Thank You All. Joe and Jan
