New hotel development for St. Stephen
A new partnership that will create jobs and tourism opportunities for the community of St. Stephen.
The municipality is teaming up with Amsterdam Inn and Suites for the development of a new hotel.
The DeWinter brothers represent the third generation of a family whose entrepreneurial legacy has become deeply woven into the fabric of New Brunswick’s hospitality landscape.
Their parents and grandparents first arrived from the Netherlands in 1952 and later established the Amsterdam Inn & Suites.
“We couldn’t be more excited to bring a new state-of-the-art hotel to St. Stephen,” said John DeWinter. “This community has an incredible spirit, and we’re thrilled to invest in its future.”
The property on Budd Avenue where the new hotel will be built has been empty since 2022.
Previously, another hotel was expected to be built there.
“This project represents another important step in building a vibrant and prosperous St. Stephen,” said Mayor Allan MacEachern. “A new hotel not only supports our tourism and hospitality sectors, but also provides the necessary infrastructure to attract more events, conferences, and visitors to our community.”
