  • Front desk staffed 24 hours for night flights and late shifts.
  • Lunch boxes prepared by the Frozen Rooster — order the night before at the front desk.
  • Supper served 4:00 pm – 10:00 pm, Thursday to Sunday, so a late finish still means a hot meal.

  • Free Wi-Fi and on-site parking.
  • With 80 rooms on one property we can hold a block for a rotation, a shutdown or a contract. Direct billing is available for approved corporate accounts, opened with hotel management — your crew signs in without a personal credit card.

Crew accommodation — frequently asked questions

Can a company reserve several rooms at once?

Yes. Call the front desk and we will hold a block of rooms for your dates. With 80 rooms we can usually cover a full crew on one property.

Do you bill the employer directly?

Yes, once a corporate account is opened with hotel management. Approved accounts are billed directly instead of each worker paying at check-out.

What time does breakfast start?

5:00 am, every day, at the Frozen Rooster inside the hotel. Breakfast is included for hotel guests.

Can I get a lunch box to take on site?

Yes. Order at the front desk the night before and pick it up on your way out.

Is there a shuttle from Wabush Airport?

Yes, the shuttle runs 8:00 am – 8:00 pm every day. The airport is about 7 minutes away.
