Location/Contact
Address180 Gower Street, St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada
Location•We are about 3 miles (6 kilometers) from St. John's International Airport. Cab fare downtown is $20.00 for first person and $2.50 for each extra one. You also have the option of calling a cab from the Airport (Jiffy 722-2222) which will cost about $15 for up to four persons.
• For persons not having a lot of luggage, it is a 5 minute walk from the Airport to the Comfort Inn, where you can bus downtown for $2. Bus # 14 to MUN and then # 3. You can pretty well ask anybody at the airport if they mind dropping you off because you will be in Newfoundland. http://metrobus.com/ is the City webpage for public transportation information.
