Top hotels in St. Johns
The Paramount Hotel
Really loved, staying here. The view outside my window looking towards the Max was amazing. The only thing that really bothered me, was that the room had a refrigerator, but no microwave, if I wanted to reheat leftovers. I felt that I had to go out and waste food, because I couldnt eat it again.

Holiday Inn Airport - Portland by IHG
The room was spotless and the woman that checked me in was very helpfull. The only negative was that it was very difficult to enter the parking lot. If you miss the one entrance you have to drive several mile to try again.

Mark Spencer Hotel
The front desk receptionist was outstanding. He had excellent customer service skills and i felt very welcomed. The room smelled a little "musty" i had to open the window to air it out and the chair in the room had a couple stains. Overall the bed was comfortable and clean.
