The Barrington Hotel

HFX Airport Hotel
we arrived very late at night. The shuttle wait was not long. We were soon checked in and off to bed. The breakfast was basic, but was appreciated since there is nothing else nearby. No complaints.

Cambridge Suites Hotel
The check-in process and parking was easy enough. Our room was pretty well clean except for the side tables by the bed we’re dirty as well as there was hair in the shower and our bathroom sink had a crack in it.

The Lord Nelson Hotel & Suites
We had a great stay at the Lord Nelson Inn & Suites. Its central location worked out great, between spending time at Dalhousie and the waterfront. The staff were super friendly and the rooms were comfortable with everything that you’d need. Will definitely be staying there again.
