In the heart of downtown, wedged between Water Street and Harbour Drive, St. John's you'll find the historic Murray Premises Hotel. I heard once that no two rooms are identical, which means guests can have a completely unique experience with every stay, unlike many traditional hotels.

A National Historic Site, the buildings known as the Murray Premises were built on St. John's waterfront in 1846 to serve Newfoundland's fishing industry as warehouses, machine shops, and mercantile offices.Of course, having a comfortable place to rest and unwind is imperative for the 72 visiting artists from across Canada, Finland and beyond coming to participate in the event.
