Nice little port. Clean, safe, and walkable to some things nearby. One fun fact about this port is…read morethat the water level will change significantly from when you dock, to when you depart. If you plan to be out for a bit, take a picture of your ship and notices where the windows are in relation to the dock. When you return, take another picture and compare. In a given day, the water can change up to 30 feet I believe we were told.

A small cozy airport. I flew in from Halifax on a small commuter plane at night and walked across…read morethe chilly tarmac to the main terminal, which was clean and small. A large window is in front of the people waiting for flights. You can get some great views of planes arriving and departing from there. This is a great airport to arrive to as a start of your adventure to not only great spots like Belleisle Bay, but also the city of Saint John and Bay of Fundy. The Bay of Fundy has the highest tidal change in the world. There is a 16.8-metre (55-foot) tidal range in some areas. The photos that show boats tide to a dock before and after the tides are amazing. A bit of history is on display here that you will see as you walk to the exit. There you will see a large variable pitch propeller developed by W.R. Turnbull, who was born and buried in Saint John, NB. I like these little historical vignettes in the towns I've visited in my lifetime.

One of those small airports with a chip on its shoulder thinking it's a major international…read moreairport. The terminal is tiny, with surly unwelcoming staff at the gift/coffee shop. Security manages to create long line ups, even when there's only a dozen passengers for the next plane because they are so slow and inefficient. If you're on a connecting flight through Saint John, be cautious if you have any liquids bought after security at your departure airport. Here they make you deplane, walk past the terminal waiting area, and exit land-side. Only to immediately turn left and have to clear security again. There's no waiting directly in the secure zone between flights. So that bottle of water you bought, or bottle of wine, or souvenir maple syrup, yup, they're all taken off you to the gleeful pleasure of the security agents. This being said, the staff working for Air Canada are very friendly and helpful. It's too bad the rest of the terminal's staff lets them down.

I'm not sure the ratings on motels and in most cases, I like spending the extra cash for a hotel…read morebut when it's 11:30pm and you have no reservations anywhere, let me just say that this place is a diamond in the rough. A fluke that I ended up here because the road that it's on is filled with motels but for 2 double beds, your own kitchen and bathroom for $90 with tax/night, it's not bad at all. This place is only rated as a 2 star motel; there's no air conditioning but it's pretty cool in there. Saint John is generally cooler and there's a ceiling fan and a stand up fan in your room. I had Room 12 which again, had 2 double beds but also a fold out couch. The place does give breakfast but it's not like eggs and such. It's cereal, coffee and a few pastries. It's fine if you don't care that much. My party had 4 people that needed to sleep and with a McDonalds just down the road, it was no biggy. Anyway, the owners keep the place clean, they are very friendly and are there to help with whatever they can (tourism, questions, etc.). My only real complaint about this place is that you can't reach the office via phone inside the room.... main reason because they don't have one in there. You have to reach them via a toll free number. Otherwise, if you're looking to save some money, come check out this place. Sure I didn't get to look at any other rooms but if you need space for 4+ people, ask for room 12.

Down sides: the desk is dominated by a microwave, and is not suitable for any kind of work, and there are some of the expected maintenance issues one will find in a private hotel.

The hotel was very clean, staff was very nice, five products offered (if that matters to you). There was free breakfast which included eggs, sausage, pancakes, breads and drinks. We didn't try any but the coffee wasn't half bad. As for the room itself - it was pretty quiet and the shower got hot very quickly. The beds were okay (a little squeaky and not very soft). There was a microwave and a mini fridge and plenty of extra pillows. Overall a reasonable stay and very close to the interstate and all of the stores and sights in Saint John. Great for the price.

New utensils. Well organized cupboards. Full kitchen. Ceiling fan. Effective blackout shades. That is essential for me. Comfy, giant bed. Tall dresser. OK tv. We are on the 1st floor. We are not experiencing any undo noise. It's also safe for us to walk around at night to the many good restaurants and bars. A pedway is nearby to the shops. Only having one key to share could be a bit tricky, but we did everything together, so it didn't affect us. We were able to back in to our designated parking stall with no trouble. Online check in instructions were clear. I'm so very impressed with how clean everything is.

I was impressed with my second-floor lodging at this historic Sydney Street townhouse -- decorative…read morefireplace, stained glass, modern amenities in the bath and kitchenette -- and the public spaces, especially the sun room, were quite beautiful. The management obtained a city street parking permit for me for a small additional cost -- a most welcome service! -- and it was waiting for me at the inn when I arrived. IMHO, no need to look elsewhere for a very comfortable stay at a reasonable rate ($110 all-in, off-season) in uptown Saint John. I rarely give 5-star ratings and I suspect the other Chipman Hill Suites are just as comfortable and convenient. Incidentally, guests of Chipman Hill Suites are welcome for lunch at the nearby Union Club on weekdays whether members of the private establishment or not. Next time I'll make a point of taking advantage of this offer at yet another historic "golden age" building.
