Review of St. John's CollegeOne of the oldest U.S. colleges, St. John's started in 1696 as a prep school but was chartered as a college in 1784. Self-guided tour brochures are available in Room 124, Mellon Hall. Mellon is also home to the Mitchell Art Gallery and -- for a completely different style of architecture -- was designed by a student of Frank Lloyd Wright. Two buildings are named for Maryland's signers of the Declaration of Independence, the Chase-Stone House and the Paca-Carroll House, both built in 1857. Don't miss the Carroll Barrister House, built about 1724 for Charles Carroll the barrister, a member of the prominent Maryland family.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
