ps: Any hotel or B&B suggestions for Saint John are also appreciated.
YSJ is my hometown. The two best hotels are within 500 m of each other and are connected by indoor walkways. Hilton is located on the harbour, and the Saint John Delta is part way up King Street in Brunswick Square. Both hotels would be good bases for exploring the historic downtown on foot. A few suggestions: King Square, Old Courthouse, Old City Market, Loyalist House, Trinity Royal Block, Germain Street, Barbour's General Store, Harbour Passage, etc.
There are many B&B's, some in elegant old Georgian or Victorian homes, but I have no direct experience with them (too many family members to stay with).
