Whenever I have a trip in Halifax I always pick the Barrington Hotel. The staff are always so friendly and helpful. I like how close everything is to the hotel. The pedway is also a great bonus especially for the last trip I had. Didn't even take one step outdoors, between the attatched restaurant and the pedway which was wonderful because of the rainstorm outside! Will definitely be coming back in the future!

We stayed here to attend a show at the casino, the location of the hotel is great with the pedways available, however, the air conditioning in the room did not work and it was a sauna the entire night. We couldn't open the windows and check in took forever. Parking in the parkade is fine if you have a wheelable suitcase, but carrying anything heavy, you have quite the distance to go plus you have to pay your own parking

Check in process was TERRIBLE. Took us 60 minutes to get checked in. We spoke to someone the night before at the front desk and was told we could pay cash upon arrival. The staff said that this has never been a thing ever !!. After going back and forth we final got checked in, and was able to pay in cash. Parking was a bit confusing, as we had to park across the road at scotia square. The most conveint thing was the pathway, liked not having to walk outside. Overall the hotel is self is dated, but clean.

Had troubles with the hotel from the beginning with the staff being less than helpful to deal with a problem, also felt unsafe after us and the room next to us herd what we believe was a domestic violence situation in the room on the other side of us and had to call down to guest services, felt unsafe after knowing that the person in that room most likely knew that it was us who called since they seen the manager speaking to us. Also had the room next to us boasting music and screaming until 4am resulting in us getting no sleep. Was a miserable experience from beginning to end and I have no intentions of booking a room at this hotel again.

Do not stay

The first room that we were given l, was disgusting. It had flys and the walls were dirty. This room stank. We called the desk and they gave us a new room which was cleaner but it still had a musty smell too it. This will be our last time staying here, which is a shame because it’s central to everything downtown Halifax.

Check-in and check-out were seamless, and staff were friendly. The room was clean, but in dire need of updating/renovating. I worked at this property from 1995-1998, and the only thing that has changed is the sink faucets. The furniture and carpets are old and tired looking. This hotel is in a prime location and, with a much-needed facelift, could be among the top 5 hotels downtown.
