Its a no frills but comfy and well placed hotel. Happened to b very loud that nite but celebrations goin on so! Meals n drinks in adjoined 2 placed great. Quite acceptable budget stay with friendly xheckin. Not all washrooms r private so pick your room based on that dont blame hotel. Would stay again
Excellent location, although drivers should note that the indoor parking across the street will cost $17 a day or more. Truly excellent housekeeping! Comfortable bed, good shower although water will take a couple of minutes' running to heat up. Room was initially quite cold, but the Honeywell switch warmed it up nicely. Be aware if stairs are an issue, it wasn't a problem for me. Mere steps from the Duke of Duckworth pub, possibly the best fish & chips in Canada! Also close to The Ship pub. Good accommodations for the price, I could stay here again in future.
Great location, comfortable bed, reasonable price, and near restaurants and shopping. A little noisy the second night. Sounded like somebody was having a party. But nothing too raucous. Would stay here again.
I love the historical buildings the staff is my other favorite. They come to help immediately witch is very helpful and amazing. I will stay here every time I come to st john's.
The hotel is nice. Room was clean. Staff is friendly. Great location in downtown area. Close to many pubs and restaurants.
Unfortunately, entrance into the hotel was frustrating, as I was left in the pouring rain with nobody answering my phone call (you have to call when you arrive so a staff member can unlock the entrance to the hotel). The TV is the size of a computer desktop monitor, which makes it difficult to watch unless you’re sitting directly in front of it.
That said, I would stay again.
Nice room great price excellent bar right beside Excellent restaurant on location, three minute walk to the downtown nightlife

First off it was a shared bathroom.. no fridge in the room, the ceiling had water damage! The place had a very disgusting smell! And the blinds were yellow and full of mold…..
I wanted to stay at a hotel with character. The Duckworth was an excellent choice.

Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
This is my second time staying here. The room was comfortable and the hotel is in a very convenient location. The room I stayed in had some minor, but unfinished damage repairs (unpainted drywall patches), which probably should have been completed before being available for use. Otherwise, I would stay again. Cheers.
Clean hotel with good location however our room had small shower, hot water mostly in the morning for shower, tv channels are very limited also we could hear people walking, flushing toilets and hear them talking but we had clean room with nice bed and pillows

The hotel is in a great location in downtown St. John's a quick 2 blocks from the harbor. We were there in mid-October so the tourist season was definitely winding down. Streets were less noisy. Easy walks from major sites, local stores, restaurants and bars. The room was basic. Bed was comfortable. Walls and doors are thin. Steps to rooms are many and luggage will need to be carried up - no elevator. We dropped our bags with them because we were early, and they carried our luggage to our room before we returned - very nice. The room and walls show wear. The window AC unit had been removed and was stashed in the small closet area. Suitable for our needs.
