JAG Hotel

Upon arrival we were very impressed with the level of service by all staff at the hotel. Check in was fast, the room was spacious and well appointed. Very modern and clean with a Hard Rock hotel vibe - just classier, not that there is anything wrong with the Hard Rock chain. We admired the level of detail in all areas of the hotel. No expense was spared in the design and decorative efforts put into our new favourite place to stay. We went for some drinks to the lobby bar and the 8th floor bar. Both had excellent drinks and service. We had a king room with a view. The hotel is quiet and very comfortable. An excellent choice of classic rock plays in the lobby and elevators. I am looking forward to visiting St. John’s again next year and staying here. My complements to all the workers and especially the valet/door guys. Top notch service.

Came from England to visit family in Newfoundland and stayed at the JAG hotel for 7 nights. I couldn’t recommend this hotel more! My partner and I had an amazing experience. We stayed in the new building (blues) and the queen room was very spacious. The interior and finishes in the room were amazing. The bathroom was also very modern and clean. The shower had a rainfall shower head as well as a standard one. The vibe of the hotel overall made our experience even better. We really enjoyed the pool and all facilities. Although it is a music hotel we never heard anything in our room, the rooms seem to be very soundproof! The staff were all very friendly and helpful. Location was also a plus. Would definitely stay here again.

It’s a fun place to stay! The music theme is everywhere and the decor is over the top. Every staff member I encountered was polite and engaging. The basic 2 q room is spacious and well equipped. I dined in Exile, a luxurious & comfy space. Tried the moose stew which was flavourful and generous, with a flaky biscuit. If you’re not a big music fan ( generations of rock & roll) the music might be too much but I loved it. The lay out is unique but they offer a site map and lots of signage. The pricing is EXCELLENT! Short walk to the fun Water Street stroll. And chocolate on the pillow? Heck no - a full Newfoundland chocolate bar!

Amazing stay! Corner room tastefully decorated with comfortable king bed and view of harbour! Efficient check in, convenient valet service, turn down service, robe, slippers, high end amennities & chocolate treat each night! They think of everything including a floss dispenser and steamer in the room! Highly recommend! 👍

Unforgettable Stay at Jag Hotel – Worth Every Penny! I’m currently staying at Jag Hotel and couldn’t wait to share this incredible experience. This might just be the best hotel in Newfoundland! Perfectly located near downtown St. John's, Jag Hotel puts you steps away from amazing restaurants, shops, and local attractions. Everything you need is within walking distance. Free parking is available right across the street, and valet service is offered for those who prefer a touch of luxury. Super convenient! The staff are exceptionally friendly and welcoming. The doorman is always up for a chat and offers great recommendations and directions. You truly feel taken care of here. The gym and wellness Centre is spotless and well-equipped, and the lap pool is a hidden gem for swimmers—especially in the morning when you can swim while watching the sunrise. It’s peaceful and energizing. The hot tub and sauna is one to see with your eyes. We stayed in the newer building (totally recommend), and the finishes are top-notch. Our room on the 6th floor had an unbeatable water view—absolutely scenic and serene. The coffee is fantastic and the food is consistently good. Whether you're grabbing a quick bite or enjoying a full meal, you won’t be disappointed. Jag Hotel is slightly more expensive than other options, but it’s worth every penny. The quality, comfort, and service are unmatched. This hotel delivers a premium experience that’s hard to beat. Can’t wait to come back!

Great stay. Stayed for four nights , day tripping with friends.The room (503) was very large with two double beds, a desk and asmall under counter fridge. The hotel consists of two buildings with a second floor bridge .There is a good bar in each building.|The staff of which there were plenty, were friendly and proactive. The housekeeping was definitely above average and the place was spotlessly clean.|The location is superb, two blocks from the water in the heart of everything.|We had breakfast the last morning and is was really good. The cost was reasonable considering that is a hotel.

An amazing new addition to downtown St. John’s!! The new building and the renovations to the original building are absolutely incredible!! The music vibe is just fantastic and the hotel is very chic! Staff were all very friendly and the rooms were clean and very comfortable. Location is perfect… just a short 5m walk to the bars / restaurants and harbour walk. The breakfast at Exile restaurant was delicious and the coffee / pastries at JAG Java were scrumptious!! The spa and pool were great, and the gym is one of the nicest I’ve seen in a hotel! We don’t travel with kids, so we were very happy to see that kids were only allowed in the pool from 9-11… this really allowed us an opportunity to relax in the pool and hot tub during our time at the spa. I definitely didn’t expect this hotel to be as nice as it was. They have everything covered from the spa, the restaurants to the incredible decor and the great service. We would definitely stay there again, and highly recommend.

Having stayed at the older Jag many times wanted to try out the new Jad before we left NL. Kept the theme from the original Mad but enhanced it many times over. Spacious, pleasing to the eye and unique in so many ways. Staff were wonderful from the front door porters to the hostess at Mojos. When staying there make you go up to 8th floor and have a drink . Staff were excellent and the atmosphere a delight. The Jag will equal most travellers expectations who frequent four and five star hotels. This hotel is the ‘Crown Jewel’ of NL accommodations!

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
