Good location, nice hotel showing its age
I had a tiny room, but admittedly may have booked that without realizing it. The hotel is very nice, but the rooms are dated. There was no outlet on one side of the bed to recharge my mobile phone, the window was about 3 feet wide and the air conditioning came from what was essentially a window unit. Most notable, however, was the terrible wifi connection. Connection was weak and spotty. While working for a few hours I was disconnected 3-4 times.

Across the street from the public garden, 5 minute walk to waterfront. Parking is behind and below the hotel. Breakfast was very good, bar was great for cocktail. Room on 6th floor was clean, recently refreshed and spacious. Only issue was TV isn’t “smart” and could not access Netflix or streaming services. Would recommend to anyone.

Mixed experiences
Beautiful lobby and a great location by the lovely Halifax Public Gardens. The room was comfortable, except for the traffic noise. For a fairly expensive hotel, the staff seem poorly trained, and with a bit of an attitude problem. Also, at over 300 dollars a night it would have been nice to have some whitener in the room for my coffee. Parking is expensive, considering that it is in the same shopping mall where I parked for most of the day at one sixth of the price the hotel charges.

I booked two rooms for my husband and I and our friends, and my husband booked a room for his parents. Our friends arrived an hour earlier than us and they were able to get an early check-in. But this later confused the front desk, because they kept making a mistake and assumed we were our friends (gave us keys to their room etc, had to ask for our cards to adjust payment for room etc) so that was a bit annoying to get organized, even when I tried to explain to them that I booked etc etc. I admit parking was pricey. 28 CAD per day. All in all it was a lovely stay, our room was cozy. Washroom was tiny but let’s be honest, we weren’t in the room much, as Halifax is a great city to explore.

We stay here all the time and this is the first non Five star I’ve had. The ONLY reason for the lower rating this time were the bed pillows. They seemed really hard and lumpy. We had a deluxe suite and the only other suggestion I would have would be some type of night lighting in the bathroom as it is a long and thin room with zero ambient lighting so if you get up in the middle of the night and don’t want to bother your partner by turning on the bathroom light, it’s very very dark. Other than that, it’s beautiful and five star all the way.
