DavidNot a hotel, not even a hostel!
As of August 2025 the building is surrounded by scaffolding. Facilities for guests are minimal: no waste bin in the room, the one in the available kitchen is never emptied so is overflowing and constitutes a health…
KlarnaNice place in the city centre
It is partly used by students but was ideal for a solo traveller. Basic room with en suite but very good value. You want the ritz then pay for it. Friendly staff, very clean with a great location.

- Whether the rate moves for your dates, and what it includes.

Questions about St James
What time is check-in and check-out at St James?
Check-in is from 3:00 PM. Check-out is by 11:00 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.
Does St James allow pets?
No — the property states that pets are not allowed.
Does St James have Wi-Fi?
Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.
Does St James have wheelchair accessible rooms?
The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.
Can I check in late at St James?
The property lists a front desk staffed 24 hours, so a late arrival should be possible. Standard check-in is from 3:00 PM. Rooms are still released after a cut-off at some properties regardless of the desk hours, so tell us your arrival time and we'll have them hold it.
How do I book St James?
Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
