Hotels in Labrador City: What We Could Confirm
Table of Contents
Two Seasons Inn
Two Seasons Inn stands at 96 Avalon Drive in Labrador City. Phone 709-944-2661 or toll-free 800-670-7667. The Newfoundland and Labrador tourism board lists 54 rooms. Wikivoyage lists the same room count. Both sources agree on the address and phone.
The tourism listing names a restaurant, a licensed dining room and a bar. Wikivoyage says the restaurant opens at 6:30 AM and closes at 10 PM daily. The listing also names free wireless internet, air conditioning, laundry service, a fitness room and a business services centre. The tourism board marks the property as wheelchair accessible and lists seniors rates.
We found no check-in or check-out times for Two Seasons Inn. Ask at booking. Pick this inn if you want an on-site restaurant and bar in one building, which helps in deep winter.
Carol Inn
Carol Inn sits at 215 Drake Avenue in the central business district. Phone 709-944-7736 or toll-free 888-799-7736. A trade listing shows 22 rooms. Several rooms have a kitchenette. Wikivoyage names a family restaurant called Jordan’s, a pub called Drake’s Return, laundry and Wi-Fi.
A travel trade listing gives 12:00 PM for both check-in and check-out. Treat this as a single-source detail and confirm by phone. We also found a commercial real estate flyer showing the hotel offered for sale through a court-appointed receiver. The flyer carries no date we could verify, and some areas of the building are described as not in operation.
Because of the sale listing, we cannot say who runs Carol Inn today or whether every restaurant and bar is open. Call before you book and ask who now manages the property.
The Collegiate Suites
The Collegiate Suites stands at 200 Campbell Avenue. Phone 709-944-5500. The tourism board lists 64 suites. Wikivoyage describes hotel rooms, studios, one and two bedroom suites, an executive loft and a large conference room.
The tourism listing names a fireplace, a jacuzzi, a fully equipped kitchen or kitchenette, on-site washers and dryers, free internet and several meeting rooms. Not every suite will have each feature, so ask for the one you want. We found no check-in times.
Choose The Collegiate Suites if you plan a longer stay, travel with family or want to cook. A kitchen saves money and effort when restaurant choices feel narrow after a long drive.
Northern Inn and Suites
Northern Inn and Suites is a motel at 700 Nichols-Adams Highway. Phone 709-944-2425. The tourism board lists 24 rooms, each with its own outside entrance. Some rooms have two beds. Many have a kitchenette.
The listing names cable TV, free wireless internet, air conditioning, smoke-free rooms and laundry service. A Pizza Delight restaurant stands next door, according to the same listing.
This is a single-source property. We found no second page to confirm the details, so call to confirm the current name, rooms and policies. Motels with outside entrances suit travelers who want to park beside the door, especially in snow.
Hotels in Wabush: The Neighboring Town
Labrador City and Wabush sit side by side and share one airport. Many visitors search for hotels in Labrador City and end up booking in Wabush. Both towns form Labrador West.
Wabush Hotel stands at 9 Grenfell Drive in Wabush. Phone 709-282-3221. Wikivoyage says the chalet-style building opened in 1960 as the Sir Wilfred Grenfell Hotel. Wikivoyage lists 65 rooms and three suites, two dining rooms, a fitness room and high speed internet. A booking site lists a 3:00 PM check-in, a 12:00 PM check-out, a 24-hour front desk and an airport shuttle.
A CBC report says the hotel went into receivership and PricewaterhouseCoopers ran the hotel as receiver. The report said the hotel stayed open and took bookings at the time. The article gives no date for the receivership. We could not confirm the current owner or whether every service still runs. Call 709-282-3221 before you rely on the shuttle or the restaurants.
Other Places We Could Not Fully Confirm
Dexter Inn and Suites appears in a provincial inspection list at 221 Moss Crescent. Wikivoyage lists the same name at 1 Moss Crescent with a phone number matching Carol Inn. The two sources disagree, so we do not recommend booking without a call.
Wikivoyage also names Snowdrift Inn on Vinking Crescent and a bed and breakfast called Trish’s Place on Stirling Crescent, phone 709-944-6003. We found one source for each. Treat both as unconfirmed.
Old Listings We Removed From This Guide
An earlier version of this page named five hotels. We could not verify four of them in Labrador City. The Murray Premises Hotel is a well known name in St. John’s, not in Labrador West. We found no Labrador City listing for Northway Inn and Suites, Happy Day Inn, Timberland Motor Inn or a hotel named simply Hotel Labrador.
Labrador Inn is a real hotel, but the building stands at 380 Hamilton River Road in Happy Valley-Goose Bay. Wikivoyage puts Goose Bay 288 km beyond Churchill Falls, which lies 243 km from the Quebec border. Do not book this inn as a Labrador City hotel.
The older page also named Gros Morne National Park as a scenic drive away. Gros Morne lies on the island of Newfoundland, far from Labrador West. We removed this claim.
Where to Stay in Labrador City: How to Choose
Start with your reason for the trip. Business travelers and crews often want a restaurant and bar under one roof. Two Seasons Inn fits this need on paper. Families and long stays suit The Collegiate Suites, where kitchens and laundry are listed.
Drivers who want a simple motel with a door beside the car may prefer Northern Inn and Suites. Travelers who arrive by air may look at Wabush, since Wabush Airport serves both towns. Ask any hotel whether a shuttle runs and at what hours.
Book early when you can. The town has a small number of rooms. We found no source on seasonal demand, so we cannot name busy dates. Call and ask directly.
Ask four questions on every call. Is the property open today? Does the room have a kitchen? Is breakfast or a restaurant on site? What is the cancellation rule? Rates change daily, so we do not quote them here.
Motels and Other Stays in Labrador City
Motels in the area are few. Northern Inn and Suites is the one we could confirm. Gateway Labrador also runs an RV park in Labrador City. Booking is online through a reservation link on the Gateway Labrador website. The visitor centre phone is 709-944-5399 and the email is info@gatewaylabrador.ca.
A visitor review on the Gateway Labrador page describes small sites with 15-amp hookups. This is one traveler’s account, so confirm the site size and power with staff before you arrive with a large rig.
Things to Do Near Your Labrador City Hotel
Gateway Labrador and Heritage Museum stands at 1365 Route 500, next to the Labrador Mall. The visitor centre site calls the walk from the mall about five minutes. Exhibits cover fur trading and the mining industry. Staff hand out maps, trail ideas and road conditions.
Winter drives most of the activity. Smokey Mountain Ski Club runs downhill skiing in the Wapusakatta Mountains from mid-November to mid-April, according to Wikivoyage. The club lists 19 runs and a snowboard park. Menihek Nordic Ski Club on Smokey Mountain Road runs cross-country skiing from October to April and has a lodge and rentals.
White Wolf Snowmobile Club sells trail passes for about 450 km of groomed trails from November to April. The Labrador City Winter Carnival runs in the second week of March, with ice sculptures, a snowmobile parade and fireworks. Confirm dates with the organizers each year.
In warm months, Tamarack Golf Club at Duley Lake is the only 18-hole course in Labrador, May to October. Walking trails include Jean Lake, Menihek Interpretive and Tanya Lake, each between 3 and 5 km. Carol Curling Club at 411 Booth Street has four lanes.
Gateway Labrador also lists IronFest, Regatta, Winter Carnival and the Fall Heritage Festival. The site gives no dates, so call the centre.
Getting to Labrador City
Labrador City is the main overland entry to Labrador. The Trans-Labrador Highway, Route 500, passes through town. From Baie-Comeau in Quebec, drive Route 389 north for 582 km. Fermont, Quebec, lies about 29 km northwest of Labrador City.
The road is gravel from the Manic 5 dam to Fermont and becomes paved after the border. Relais Gabriel is the only stop for fuel or lodging on the Quebec stretch, according to Wikivoyage. Gateway Labrador gives out handouts for the drive to Baie-Comeau marking gas stops and mileage. Fuel up and check the road before you go.
From the border, the drive is 243 km to Churchill Falls and 288 km more to Happy Valley-Goose Bay. Wabush Airport has flights to and from Goose Bay and Montreal. Airlines named by Wikivoyage are Air Borealis, Pascan Aviation and PAL Airlines. Flights from Goose Bay take about 1.25 hours.
Two metered cab companies are listed, CJ Cabs at 709-944-7757 and Twin City Cabs at 709-944-6500. Labrador City uses Atlantic time.
What We Checked and What We Could Not
