Reviewed Sep 17, 2026Easy to find and good proximity to other towns and Gros Morne NP. Staff wonderful — very friendly and helpful. Very good breakfast you can select yourself. Across from waterfront. Nicely decorated room and breakfast area. We thought this was the best place to stay near Gros Morne and would do so again.
A little hard to master the smart heat/ac control….

La réception ferme à 17H00 ce qui est un peu tôt, nous avons téléphoné comme indiqué à l'entrée et quelqu'un est arrivé rapidement. Le petit-déjeuner est complet mais sans plus. C'était l'établissement le plus cher de notre séjour, cela ne le valait pas.

Reviewed Sep 18, 2025The Tides Inn was our last night splurge at the end of a two week visit to Newfoundland/Labrador. A bit more expensive than other places we'd stayed, but well worth it. A wonderful place to stay. Great view out over the inlet from the room - all rooms have the view. Robert (co-owner) was so friendly on reception with great local dinner recommendation. Room was well equipped with everything we needed. Breakfast was lovely. Self service but with a good selection - bacon, sausage, eggs, cereals, toast and pastries.
Nothing. Exceeded our expectations in everything.

Reviewed Sep 16, 2025Great view. Quiet town. Some cafes and restaurants nearby. All of the major attractions are a short drive away. Keyless entry. Good room size.
There's a microwave in the room, but no plates, bowls, or utensils. No kettle available at the front desk. The couch in the seating area is uncomfortable and needs some pillows.

Reviewed Aug 5, 2025Wonderful family run operation. Room is big with great bathroom with tub and shower. King bed and pillows were comfy. Very nice breakfast with good selection of hot and cold items. Also wholesome breads and locally made jams or jellies. Nice quiet area at night. Great scenery in all directions. Great location near to many activities and attractions.
Having to walk outdoors via the back door and around to the front door to enter for breakfast. One morning it was raining and a bit inconvenient. Also originally I thought the property was right on the lake so when you had a balcony, you were looking at the lake. However, the property is on the other side of the road from the lake.

Reviewed Jun 7, 2025The Tides is a family owned and operated motel located in a beautiful location across the street from the inlet in Norris Point. Barb, the owner welcomed us in the parking lot before we pulled our bags out of the car because the room entrances are behind the building. Her whole family works at the motel and they are friendly and helpful. We chose an option to have breakfast and we are looking forward to that after our one night stay leading to our trip to the northern peninsula. This motel was recommended by a friend who told me the next time he visited Newfoundland, he planned to book his whole visit in this hotel and I can understand why. I planned to visit Newfoundland previously and had booked at the Sugar Hill Inn but the trip was cancelled due to COVID and the owners there only provided me with a credit note that expired within 2 years, so opted to try this motel and a spa called Neddies on our return trip from the Northern Peninsula.

The coffee's great, and the hosts are friendly and helpful. Convenient location on the Gros Morne side of the park - walking distance or short drive to food and drink. This will be our home base for future visits.
