Very clean and comfortable bed and bedding. Would be nice to have a microwave and some water other than the bathroom sink. Could not see the TV fully from the bed. Lack of communication requesting to be checked in a hour early, left sitting in the lobby by reception while multiple others walked up checked in early and were given rooms.

Excellent location, steps from the boardwalk & easy to walk to all main attractions (next door to Alexander Keith’s Brewery) &/or easy access to transit. Hotel staff provided great service & did their best to provide me with early check-in, however it seems the earliest is 3:30pm, would be nice if hotel could offer an earlier check-in than 4pm. They will store your luggage while you go & explore. Rooms are clean & good set up, beds comfortable with lots of pillows! Does need some updating, like vents in bathroom would be good but overall a great stay. Would be nice if they offered some complimentary water in the room but there is a small area next to reception where you can purchase. Great bistro in lobby for breakfast (only ate breakfast there so can’t comment on other menus). Serves Starbucks coffee & avocado toast is delicious! Pool & hot tub need some care, but overall a small area to take a dip & relax after a day out exploring. Hot tub has some tiles missing & pool needs better circulation. Gym small but does the job. Hotel is also attached to a Spa “Spirit Spa” would highly recommend! Nice upstairs terrace on 8th floor for every guest to use & view harbour, as well as a cute “Zen Garden” on 3rd floor outside. Two great restaurants right across the front driveway “Shuck” & “Cut”. Highly recommend Shuck if you like oysters & the raw fish menu, but also have other options. Yes there is construction, it’s everywhere in Halifax, but bearable if your an early riser & out!

Great stay for our honeymoon! Perfect location for walking in the waterfront, many many restaurants to choose from! Breakfast at the bistro in the morning was delish. We picked a balcony room but the balcony was blocked by the hotel sign giving us no view of anything. Still a great stay though!

It was a very quick stay to visit my son who lives in Halifax. My only complaint would be there was no tap option for credit cards. I did not have my physical card on me and could not use my wallet on my phone without tap,option. It’s 2024! This is unacceptable !
