Staff was great. Decor is awesome. Rooms are spacious. Love the soaking tub and heated bathroom floor. Comfortable bedding and pillows. Great views down Water Street. Hipster vibe and located in the heart of all the pubs and eateries.

The coffee provided in room is pretty bad. The heater blows pretty hard even on the lowest fan setting so that it creates a draft in the room which is actually cold while you are trying to get warm (and it blows straight up the drapes). I was a little disappointed in the restaurant. They are trying, but they need a better chef. The cocktails were a bit lacking as well. The parking is not convenient, especially for the daily rate, but then it was very cold out. I might have minded less in warm weather.

Location was right in the center of the most desirable section of town, a street full of restaurants and bars with outdoor patios and one block from the vibrant harborfront. My huge windows looked out on all the action. If you are bothered by street noise, I wouldn't recommend a room on the front of the hotel, but I actually enjoyed the street noise. The bathroom was huge with a soaking tub and actual towel racks full of towels! The food at the hotel restaurant and bar was so good that I never bothered to eat anywhere else. The bed had great reading lights on both sides.

I have read some silly reviews that complained about having to check in at the hotel bar rather than at a conventional registration desk. I was delighted to check in at the bar and have a beer right away!

The room was comfortable, clean and the bathroom was beautiful! The location is ideal if you'd like to be right in the heart of downtown (surrounded by restaurants, shops and nightlife) Food was also great!

Despite the amazing staff and their best efforts to help the parking was a struggle due to road closures and the parking being offsite. It would have been ideal if we had a designated space for check in (Check in at bar) as we waited for our check in with the bartender who had drinks to finish prior. On another note it was quite noisy which could be a problem for some. The street, the bar below and a on and off construction type sound in the late evening were slightly disturbing.

Good, central location. The bathroom was huge and really comfortable.

It's right in the middle of the bars, which is convenient for transportation, but, it's very loud until very late. I'm not sure if this was because it was a Saturday night, but the noise (drunk people screaming outside, music from the rooftop patio right in front, or cars speeding) was very loud and nonstop until after at least 1.30 am, making it impossible to get a good night sleep.

The meals and drinks at Blue were excellent, served by attentive staff. The charming, eclectic decor of the hotel and bar were refreshing, and first rate. The hotel will be my go-to location for future trips. I really like the downtown location in heart of the harbour district. The old buildings, independent shops, and good restaurants make for a pleasant stay in the city.

Parking downtown, particularly in the daytime is a challenge, but not the hotel's fault.

Large deluxe room, very comfortable, lovely appointments. Bathroom is very spacious with a soaker tub and walk in shower. The staff from Sullivan down are exceptional. They were friendly, professional and extremely helpful. Sullivan makes you feel welcome and goes out of his way to be helpful with all aspects of our stay.

Floor in the pub was quite slippery and once the shower floor or bathroom floor got damp or wet it was extremely slippery.

Our accommodation was extraordinary. Super comfortable and funky decor. The bar and restaurant were both excellent with regard to service and food quality. When we arrived, Sully (the owner/manager) actually met us outside, escorted us in and to our rooms. He was a super great person with a perfect personality and skill set for the hospitality industry. We were absolutely amazed that on the day of our departure, Sully remembered all our names! The location of Blue on Water is situated in the heart of downtown with the best bars, restaurant, music venues, etc. Everything was in walking distance! Could not have been better.

The only thing that was initially a little challenging was trying to find the parking. Water Street was only open to foot traffic for the summer months. However, as mentioned, Sully made sure that we settled in with ease.

I absolutely loved the location and the room. The room itself and bathroom were really spacious In addition we had access to big private terrace where you could just sit and relax during the day or even enjoy a drink before your bed time. The bathroom included bathtub which proved to be really handy after we returned from whale-seeing activity - it's pretty chill in the ocean. Beds were really comfortable. Despite hotel being located on the most touristic street of St John's - the Water street - the stay was pretty calm as our room was on the harbour side. A special mention and thanks to the staff of the hotel - they were really friendly and helpful. The location was especially great for us as, being dedicated craft beer lovers and explorators, we were able to get to every beer place around by foot easily

Seaguls were a bit noisy but it's tolerable and not hotel's fault; If you will be staying stay in the same room we did be ready that they will be staring at you through the window bagging for the food or even occasionally hitting the glass with their beaks :D

The room including shower was welcoming and nice. Room service brought me extra coffee quickly, no issues. People are kind and welcoming. The table to work at is good. A good restaurant at bottom floor is always an asset.

The outside of the building is old and scruffy. Parking is way too far and complicated to reach. The decoration is tasteless - sorry.

Perfect place to stay. Great, central location. The rooms were very cozy with a nice blend of modern flare mixed with the old bones of the building. The beds were amazingly comfortable. Nice bathroom/showers, too. Great food and drinks in the restaurant below, as well.

Could be a little loud at night with people coming to their rooms, as you could hear a decent amount from the halls with the echo.
