Cambridge Suites Hotel

8/10 Good

"In good location but specifically booked this hotel for hot tub and was not notified beforehand that it was unavailable."

The Lord Nelson Hotel & Suites

10/10 Excellent

"I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Lord Nelson. The property has a historic feel, and you can tell that it has been lovingly restored and maintained, so the character of the hotel was quite appealing. Upon check-in the front desk staff were so kind and since I was coming in on the red-eye flight, they let me check-in early. What a relief to a weary traveller! I loved my comfy room and the view of the garden. Was there for 5 days and 4 nights and every day my room was freshened up, re-stocked, and the temperature was always set to a comfortable level. Special shout-out to one staff member named “Madonna” - hard working and very pleasant! Others were of the same standard, greeting me “good morning” on my way out, and in the elevators. Wow! I will return if ever I need to go back to Halifax!"

The Sutton Place Hotel Halifax

10/10 Excellent

"I had a wonderful stay! The service was exemplary, the staff were welcoming and attentive, and the rooms were nicely appointed and thoughtfully designed. The location is perfect, with everything within easy walking distance, provided you don’t mind a little uphill stroll. A wonderful experience from start to finish, and I would happily return any day. Highly recommended!"
