Halifax Hotel Guide - Luxury Hotels in Halifax, Canada

We spent a week in Nova Scotia using this hotel as our base. We were extremely comfortable while in the hotel. We traveled well over 3500 kilometers while there and found this hotel not only comfortable but centrally located in the city to attractions and restaurants we visited.

Had a great experience at this hotel. Would definitely stay there again.

The Lord Nelson is conveniently located within walking distance of the restaurants and activities at the waterfront. Our room was very nice - spacious and clean. The stay was very good. There were two negatives, however: 1. Since this was our first time in Halifax, we wanted to get some info on what to do. We found the concierge to ask for advice. He had only been in Halifax for 3 weeks and did not know the city and could not recommend anything. Very disappointing. 2. When we arrive, we had a late lunch in the restaurant. We had company - a mouse.

Nice bed, sheets, down pillows. No luggage rack. Spacious bedroom. Kitchenette with microwave/bar fridge. Parking is outside, kitty corner across the street. Don't provide umbrellas.

Good choice for those who've never been to Halifax. Close to everything, walking distance. The boardwalk is beautiful and right next to the hotel. Farmers market across the street is spectacular. And a super-big grocery market and liquor store is a 2 minute walk away. The hotel itself is great, with comfy and clean rooms. The beds were cushiony and I slept like a baby. Staff was responsive and nice. We had a couple of small glitches in our room but on the whole, very few complaints. Highly recommend.

The hotel needs upgrading, otherwise it was very comfortable

Great location. Nice room, but there were things left by a previous guest and the phone didn't work.

Hated to pay $20 to park after paying so much for room.

We stayed one night. Daniel toted luggage for us. The home, built in 1891 is on a very steep hill and parking is tricky. From our Auditors room we had a limited bay view obscured by the large hotel/apt building that had been built between Ascendence and the bay. Daniel brought tea to our room and made restaurant suggestions which we used and had a delightful meal at Jim's Family Restaurant a short walk from our room. The custard pies are homemade there and delicious.Be sure to sit in the rear dining room that has the bay view. He also gave directions that we used to the Maritime Museum and Fairview Cemetery. Katherine and he prepared and served a good breakfast that included yogurt topped with fruit first course followed by eggs, bacon and toast along with tea/coffee.The room had its own bathroom, was clean and quiet but lacked an easy chair. It did have a roll out sofa. The stairs to our second floor room were winding and steep.

Very good recommendation for dinner that was walkable. Had very nice property. Upgraded us for free to a room with an on suite.
