“Citadel Halifax Hotel”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 January 2012
1
person found this review helpful

Decided to stay at this hotel for New Year’s Eve 2011 and did not have a good experience. The hotel room was absolutely filthy! There were stains all over the floors and bed linens. One of the comforters’s had food and other stains as shown below. We called the front desk to get a new comforter and were given another with no apology what so ever and a blanket that contained the same stains. Also, the heater was older and extremely loud at night. I would not recommend this hotel at all! If you’re only looking for a bargain hotel that does not take sanitation seriously this is for you!

“Citadel hotel”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 December 2011

The hotel itself is a bit outdated but it has the basics right. the staff were very helpful and went out of the way to aid in any situation and very friendly at the front desk, especially the GSM who was the best hotel employee i have ever encounted in all my travels :)

“it's a shame they're planning to demolish”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 November 2011

this hotel is really rather sweet, a classic late 60s architectural gem, windows that open and staff that are a delight. a short walk away from the Five Fishermen [arguably the nicest place to eat in Halifax] and with views of the Citadel and/or the harbour i would happily stay here again. lovely kingsize beds and real cotton sheets. AND the housekeeper gave me extra coffee, bless her

Room Tip: ask for one on the top floor

“Enjoyed our Kin Canada Conference”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 November 2011 via mobile

Will sure miss the Citadel. Have been there for many conferences and they have treated us very well. The rooms are well appointed and clean. Can't wait for the new hotel to open. Hope the price dosen't increase too high.
