Top Government House Hotel Reviews

The Lord Nelson Hotel & Suites

10/10 Excellent

"What a luxurious stay. Very clean. Bed was super comfortable and the towels were very thick. It was easy to adjust the heating/AC. Staff were very helpful and we enjoyed the area. The hotel is across from the Public Gardens and a 20 minute walk to the beautiful waterfront. I would definitely stay here again."

The Barrington Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We missed our connecting flight and needed to find accommodation for 1 night. The Barrington was very full but we managed to get a room with a very comfortable king size bed. Our breakfast was delicious with several great options to choose from. The citadel and harbour front were only several blocks away giving us the opportunity for a walk along the beautiful pier before leaving for the airport the following day. Only drawback was the hotel being at least 1/2hr drive from the airport."

Commons Inn

8/10 Good

"Location is a bit confusing. Street address changedm but not yet updated in the website."

Cambridge Suites Hotel

8/10 Good

"This hotel had a great location for spending time in Halifax. We easily walked to the waterfront each day. Visit the rooftop to get a great view of the Citadel and the city. The breakfast was only ok."

The Halliburton

10/10 Excellent

"An incredible stay! Staff were so lovely. Beautiful rooms. Close to the harbour. Parking was easy! Wish were could have stayed more than 1 night."

Atlantica Hotel Halifax

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was exceptionally helpful and courteous. Location was excellent. We could walk everywhere we wanted to go."

Residence Inn by Marriott Halifax Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean and recently renovated hotel. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Great location. Only recommendation would be for them to change the layout of the breakfast area. It's current format makes things very awkward and clostrophobic."

The Sutton Place Hotel Halifax

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room, nice view."

Red George Inn and Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Great location in downtown Halifax! Easy access to everything."
