Welcome to the brand-new Staybridge Suites Waterloo/St. Jacobs, an all-suite IHG Hotel. As the newest hotel in the Waterloo Region, we proudly offer full suites with kitchens, spacious bedrooms, and work desks with free high-speed Wi-Fi. Feel right at home and enjoy our complimentary hot buffet breakfast served daily, featuring a variety of eggs, bacon, build-your-own waffles, fresh local fruit, and much more. Join us for our weekly Social Gatherings, where we provide guests with a complimentary light dinner while they mix and mingle. Unwind after a long day at our top-of-the-line 24-hour fitness facility or indoor heated pool with a kids' play area, open daily from 6:00 AM to 10:00 PM. Located in the heart of the St. Jacobs Market District, the Staybridge Suites is steps away from the St. Jacobs Outlet Mall and Canada’s largest year-round farmers market. We are also a short drive from St. Jacobs Village, the University of Waterloo, Schlegel Villages, ON Semiconductors, Ultra Manufacturing, and Blackberry. Relax at the Staybridge Suites Waterloo/St. Jacobs and experience the local heritage and culture of St. Jacobs woven into the hotel's design, from Mennonite-made furnishings and custom glasswork to hand-stitched quilts and Mennonite artwork. Our guests enjoy these unique features and return regularly to escape their busy lives.
