“Great Hotel Near Everything...”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 January 2012
1
person found this review helpful

I am staying in this hotel as I type this. I have been here for just over a week now and everything has been great. The breakfest is very simple, they also put out a small snack 3 nights a week that is OK. The hotel is near some great pubs and restaurants as well as being very close to the arena and shops. Durty Nellys just around the corner is a great Irish pub that has very friendly people, give it a try. The hotel staff have been very good. I needed a cab on a snowy cold night and they did an excellent job in getting me one quickly. The rooms are very big and clean with nice size kitchen area. I would definately recomment this Hote. The only 'issue' so far is, the streets around the hotel can be very noisey on the weekends.

“Don't hold meetings or conferences here...”

Great hotel but I held a 3 day meeting here and it was awful... They wouldn't let one client park in the hotel parking, food was deplorable. I talked to the staff and they were not helpful at all, they didnt care. I had to apologize to my client repeatedly after three days of terrible food, service, and help from the desk. Never again...

“Best hotel experience I've had in Halifax”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 January 2012
1
person found this review helpful

I just came back from spending a night in this hotel and decided to join TripAdvisor just so I could write a review; it was wonderful. The room was large, the bed was very comfortable, nice flat screen TV, and the sofa and kitchenette were an added convenience. The staff was pleasant and there was no problem accessing the free Wi-Fi. I've stayed in four other hotels in downtown Halifax, but this was by far my favourite. The free hot buffet breakfast was a nice added touch. I didn't want to leave and will definitely be back.

“Immaculate hotel!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 January 2012

person found this review helpful

Large rooms, spotless, great staff, fitness centre, comfy beds, modern design, walking distance to great restaurants, night life, and shopping. Great place to stay for business, and pleasure.

Room Tip: Stay on a higher floor to avoid noise from revellers heading home when the clubs close.

“Perfect Downtown Location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 December 2011

Right in the heart of the nightlife in downtown Halifax. Room was the perfect size and very clean; one broken door in the kitchenette (more of a full-sized kitchen, really) which we reported to the Front Desk. Speedy check-in/check-out process. Parking is an issue as it isn't included in the room rate; if you're staying on a Friday or Saturday night and are early enough, you can get a spot at a meter on the street for free; also if you arrive after 6:00 pm and leave before 8:0 am on weekdays.

Great place to stay; perfect for a weekend getaway.

Room Tip: Higher floors are further away from street noise
