The room wasn’t to a high level standard. Couples room with queen bed. Bathroom had old petal sink. Wife had to lay hair dryer and personal affects on bed to use in bathroom. Tv was over in front of bathroom door instead of bed. Faded spot on wall where picture once was. When said it to front desk was told because we booked on line

Never stay at Albatross hotel. The bathtub was clogged while showering, the room had dust , the shampoo tube suplied was empty. The paid breakfast was not good...potatoes were burnt...the 3 egg omelet was more like 2 eggs. When I complaineed abour the room to the receptionist at check out , instead if apologising she said the maids are very busy as it is peak season.. What an answer!!!! Paid 262 dollars for one night at this crappy hotel. Supposedly its a 3.5 star hotel...worth not even a single star. The property is old and dilapidated.

Not accessible for wheelchairs

Your rooms that say are accessible are really not wheelchair accessible. The doors are too small and the bathroom is too small. You can not fit a wheelchair in the bathroom.

Don't overlook this hotel. The staff here makes this hotel special. They went above and beyond for us. Newfoundland hospitality is alive and well here. We really enjoyed the breakfast as well. A wonderful homecooked meal. The hotel is a little outdated but very clean and comfortable. I'd highly recommend if your in Gander for a quick visit.
