3 Best Hotels in St. John River Valley, New Brunswick

Conveniently located just off the Trans-Canada Highway and Highway 95 from the U.S. border at Houlton, this hotel is very friendly and welcoming and well suited to both business and leisure guests. Good leisure amenities, including an indoor pool and exercise facilities, are a bonus, and although there's no restaurant, the former lounge is being transformed into a coffee bistro, and a hot breakfast is included in the room rate.

Linked to both the convention center and the shopping mall in downtown Edmundston, this is a super stylish hotel, with the clever use of natural stone, old barn boards, and industrial relics in public areas imparting a sleek and modern look. Rooms are spacious and modern, with supremely comfortable beds, and the bar and grill is an attractive informal space—with a particularly delicious breakfast.

In a converted 19th-century home, the elegant suites have been designed to suit business and leisure travelers for short or long stays, with access to a fully equipped kitchen and guest laundry. The rooms are on the second and third floors, and each has a private bathroom and satellite TV, and the third floor includes a common area with TV. A full breakfast is included.
