Top University Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn Express & Suites St John's Airport by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Great staff. Good location and shuttle to and from airport is very efficient."

Monastery Hotel

8/10 Good

"Room was good and enjoyed the kettle/microwave, though we had a few toiletry replenishment requests (e.g. kleenex, soap). A hairdryer would have been a nice addition as well as some complimentary spa samples since the spa is on-site. Glad for the free parking as we did a one-day rental. Front desk staff were friendly and helpful. Wake up call on last morning was missed, but we managed fine nonetheless. Kudos to the two Bistro staff who were great (Rahim makes a nice latte)!"
