Top St. Mary's Cathedral Basilica Hotel Reviews

Cambridge Suites Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Spacious and clean room, great breakfast, excellent location."

The Halliburton

10/10 Excellent

"I came in for a one-night stay at the Halliburton. The room was clean and quiet and the bed was very comfortable. The bath towels were soft and fluffy not like the usual thin scratchy hotel towels. The water pressure was excellent. The only thing I did not like was the toilet paper, it was the thin industrial type, but easily something to overlook because of all of the positives of this property. Hotel staff were friendly, efficient and covered everything. There is an option to purchase breakfast."

Red George Inn and Suites

10/10 Excellent

"I stayed at Red George Suites last week and couldn’t have asked for a better location. I own a local advertising business and had commitments all over Halifax, so being right downtown made it easy to get everywhere I needed to be. The suite was spotless and comfy, with all the basics I needed to whip up a quick bite between appointments. It was so nice to have that option when I didn’t feel like eating out. The owners were easy to reach, the building was incredibly quiet, and free parking in downtown Halifax was a huge bonus. I’ve found my downtown Halifax home base. I’ll definitely be staying here again!"

Muir, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Halifax

8/10 Good

"The Muir is our favourite place to stay on the east coast (as east coasters who have stayed in every kind of accommodation in the Maritimes). The staff is friendly, professional, and proactive. The amenities and location are top-notch. It feels like a luxurious retreat. We also loved our room, which felt spacious, with large windows looking onto the Queen's Marque plaza, its stairs leading into the sea, and the 'Rise Again' landmark jutting over the water. The downsides were: musty smell in shower, cabinet doors that needed adjusting (hard to close), terrible white wine in the room (for $49/bottle; not chilled), and tasteless pancakes for breakfast (not included in the $700/night room fee). We generally do enjoy the food at Drift, but I would suggest having breakfast elsewhere."
