We got off to a bit of a bad start after a tiring journey when our booking confirmation sent us to a wrong address. But mistakes happen. It's how they are addressed that is important and the mistake was addressed promptly and fully. We have been here before. The establishment is a magnificent old mansion in downtown historic Saint John. It is within easy walking distance of the many shops and restaurants/pubs, a few parks and the waterfront. The room is elegant, functional and well equipped. We will be back.

Chipman Hill SuitesThis is where you want to stay when visiting Saint John. I know Hilton and Delta and Chteau look tempting but youre not going to have anywhere near as memorable an experience as you will with Chipman Hill Suites in the heart of one of Canadas most charming cities. Heres why: Firstly, my suite was far cheaper than any of the big-name hotels I mentioned above. Secondly, the service I received, both from Shayrha by telephone (with whom I booked my stay), and from Amanda, who welcomed me warmly upon my arrival showing me around the common areas of the 1895 mansion at 71 Sydney Street. And thirdly the proximity to the city (5 minute walk) allows you to be more than just a guest in a hotel in an unfamiliar city. You will feel just like the fine citizens who reside here in the oldest incorporated city in Canada. The hotel, is a stunning Victorian-era mansion and it, as well as the surrounding neighbourhood is as quiet as you could want (So much so, in fact, that that the ticking of my wall clock became disruptive to me and I was compelled to remove the batteries to silence it haha). My king-size bed was the most comfortable Ive lain in at any time in my life and the linens and comforters were more than sufficient for the snowy nights in Port City. It was a nice touch having a separate sitting room in my suite. I used this for morning coffee, afternoon naps, and putting my feet up in the evenings. Reviews and feedback are very important to Chipman Hill and you are politely reminded of this from time to time during your stay. First, on the phone with reservations, I was made aware that I would be asked to write a small review. Then when I checked in, I was presented with a small, clean envelope containing a sheet with a short paragraph requesting feedback, and another sheet with directions describing how to post to Trip Advisor. The owners and managers make it very clear that they want to be judged, and moreover theyve worked hard to create a level of professionalism, service, and hospitality which makes them confident that youll be pleased. Chipman Hill Suites is not just another hotel. You can basically go anywhere to be called sir or madam and have your bags carried down a long, boring, taupe-coloured hallway to a cold, just-like-the-rest room, where you lay on the bed watching bad tv, ordering-in franchise food, and wishing you werent staying so far away from city-culture. Chipman Hill Suites is on a whole other level and just minutes from lovely restaurants, friendly pubs, and amiable, real people. Come here to relax. Come here to visit a gorgeous city. Come here to recharge. Come here to be inspired, enchanted, impressed, and earnestly connected. You will feel more welcome than you expect.
