3-star hotels in Bathurst
A shortlist of 3-star hotels in Bathurst, gathered for travellers who want a comfortable base in northern New Brunswick without losing sight of the bay, the heritage museum or the road north to the Acadian Peninsula.
Staying in Bathurst
Bathurst sits on Chaleur Bay in northern New Brunswick, a bilingual city where the Daly Point Nature Reserve, the Bathurst Heritage Museum, Gowan Brae Golf and Country Club and the harbour waterfront give visitors plenty to do between drives. Downtown offers shops, restaurants and the waterfront within walking distance of main attractions, while the harbour area has scenic views and proximity to the nature reserve and marina. East Bathurst is a residential area with highway access, and the Acadian Peninsula begins just north of the city.
The 3-star hotels on this list are spread across the city and its outskirts, from 150 Main Street and 1450 Vanier Blvd to addresses on Rue Principale, St Pierre W and Route 132. They suit couples touring the bay, families who want pools and playgrounds, and motorists breaking the 3-hour drive from Moncton or the 2-hour run from Miramichi. The city's average guest score of 4.2 out of 5 reflects a generally positive experience, and these hotels range from 3.8 to 4.6 in guest ratings.
