Cameo Hotel and Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Cute loft for a short stay. Very clean and modern. Perfect location! Only negative would be 4:00 check-in is a little late. That being said, the luggage storage room helped. Would absolutely stay again and recommend."

Four Points by Sheraton Halifax

10/10 Excellent

"Great"

Residence Inn by Marriott Halifax Downtown

8/10 Good

"The hotel is very well-located. I was able to take a bus from the airport to the downtown area and it was then a 15 min walk to the hotel. However, it was an uphill walk and may not be walkable by everyone. After reading some reviews and being aware of the issues some people had with noise, I requested a room higher up and facing away from the main street. My request was accommodated and I had no issues with noise. The room was large, comfortable and clean. I had a room with a kitchen area which was great. My stay included breakfast. The breakfast was more than adequate, with both hot and cold items. Coffee and tea is provided in the lobby free of charge, all day. This hotel is within easy walking distance of the boardwalk and other attractions. There are many restaurants and cafes nearby. Checkout was fast and easy. Overall, I was happy with my stay and pleased with my choice of hotel."

Homewood Suites by Hilton Halifax-Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Liked the suite option to be able to prepare food if we wanted. Friendly staff. Great breakfast."
