Amazing! Best hotel in town
Pros:

Excellent customer service. We were greeted by the nicest man at the front desk. He upgraded our room and gave us free parking. Our view was phenomenal. The room was spacious and very pretty, modern design. The oval window was a super plus.
The bar and restaurant, Bivver, on site is amazing. Best espresso martini I've ever have. The bar tenders were super nice and went above and beyond.

Cons:

Nothing, I loved everything!

Another super weekend @ the Sheraton St John's.
Pros:

Just checking out after a weekend here to celebrate a friends wedding. The hotel staff were super - I'm a frequent travelling and have lifetime status and as usual they treated me with a nice corner suite and all the usual amenities. Our guests were not however and when we inquired about paying to upgrade their room, the staff very generously did so for no cost and helped with some nice treats in the room to make it special. This type of over the top service is why I always stay here when in St Johns.
The hotel is nicely situated on a hill with great views, has easy access via cab or 5-10 minute walk to all the goodness downtown, a great bar and has been nicely updated over the years.. highlight recommended.
