Saint John offers a full range of accommodations from upscale hotels to quaint inns and bed-and-breakfasts. Most accommodations are found downtown and near the waterfront. Visitors should plan to book early if visiting during the peak season (May-September).
Business travelers gravitate toward the well-known chains, such as the Hilton, Delta and Holiday Inn, but the city also has some chains that target budget travelers and families, such as Econo Lodge & Suites and Quality Inns. Don't overlook some of the homegrown stars either: Earle of Leinster Inn and Sunset Mooring.
Whether you're royalty or looking for a hostel for a night, you'll find a wide variety of lodging options in Saint John. Don't overlook the smaller properties. Their friendliness and world-renowned maritime hospitality can go a long way toward making your trip memorable, and you'll get to see first-hand how locals live.
