Last July, Best Western Plus St. Stephen Hotel & Suites officially broke ground on Budd Avenue, right next to Garcelon Civic Center in St. Stephen, New Brunswick, Canada. The construction project was initiated back in 2012, but like others, experienced setbacks in development caused by the pandemic.  

St. Stephen sits opposite Calais on the other side of the St. Croix River and has a population of 4,415.
