JAG Hotel

Great location. Very cool decor with music theme. Room was very large but very dim and the deadbolt on our room didn’t work. The included breakfast with the website special was served in the restaurant and was very good. There are two towers, Rhythm and Blues. We stayed in the older Rhythm tower. Next time I would request the new Blues tower. Parking is valet or in a small lot nearby. Would stay again.

We loved our stay at the Jag. We were treated like royalty every time we walked in or out. Polite friendly helpful service all through the hotel. The pool was majestic and we had it to ourselves (after 11 am no kids!). The hot tub was nice! The room was very nice though we were in the older side of the hotel it was still very nice. Loved the beds, so comfy.

This was a very trendy hotel. The interior designer should be applauded as every detail was considered. The location was great - close enough to the downtown that you can easily walk to dinner or for a night out, but far enough away that you wouldn't be bothered by the nightlife. It is close to the shipping yards so the view isn't great but there is so much to look at and appreciate inside it's not a problem! The pool is one of the largest I've seen, and they have a pool lift for anyone who might need it. Their gym is also one of the best hotel gyms I've ever seen. The rooms were clean, a nice size, and the staff were nice. Street parking was difficult to find but the valet service was reasonably priced and quick.

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.

Comfortable beds. 5 star beds. Funky decors throughout the buildings. Exile restaurant has a great breakfast. Had it 6 days in a row. Great location at the water front. You can walk one side of downtown to the other side in 15-20 minutes casually.

We really enjoyed our stay here. The staff was really nice and the valets were very attentive. The room was clean and comfortable. The location was also pretty great too, close to downtown and easy for driving around as well. One thing I did want to mention was that the pool has family hours of 9-11 am where kids can play. Otherwise it's adult only. We were a bit disappointed because we had chosen a hotel with a pool. One of the days was rainy and it would have been perfect. Unfortunately the timing didn't work out as it's pretty early in the day for us on vacation and wouldn't have been much time in general. I would have preferred if the hours were advertised better so we could have know during booking. Otherwise it was a really nice stay and we enjoyed our time there. The kids loved the decor. The breakfast was very good too!

What a cool hotel! Great music playing all the time in the lobby, terrific decor, beautiful pool and sauna area. I must say this hotel treats their guest like royalty, very friendly very polite and professional service. Clean comfy quiet rooms too. And the free breakfast was to die for! Perfect. Very pleased.

Initially, I thought the decor was a little too much, but this place grows on you. After a the third night, I was taking pictures of the hotel and enjoying every corner of it. Service was excellent. I used the valet parking, the little cafe in the lobby area and the pool. If you swim, take your goggles because their swimming pool is perfect for laps. The location is excellent, at walking distance to very good restaurants.

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
