Norris Point International Hostel

Gros Morne National Park


This is a basic but respectable hostel, offering a good bed after a hard day's hiking. The ambience is the sort of friendly international chill vibe most backpackers know and love. The hostel is located in a community center that was once part of the old Bonne Bay Cottage Hospital.
