We absolutely loved staying here! Excellent location, and our suite was spacious, clean, and comfortable. We had an early night, because we felt so comfortable in our suite. Amazing shower, with a great selection of toiletries. The breakfast buffet was excellent as well. Finally, the staff were ALL very friendly and helpful.

This hotel was comfortable and the convenience of having a kitchenette was awesome. It was very close and easy to walk to most places downtown. We brought our dog, and it was a seamless experience for him, other than that he wasn’t used to watching people through the windows up high, so that made him a little freaked out. The area was a little sketchy, with many homeless folks and people asking for money. My husband would take our dog for late night/early morning walks because he was worried about me walking alone. I can’t say I wasn’t also worried about that. That said, downtown Halifax in general is a lot more run down than I remember.

We prepaid for a room with another couple that we were on vacation with. When we arrived, they said they did not have our room. They sold it to someone else. So they put us up in another hotel that was 10 minutes away (and made us take a taxi there) and was not in the downtown area. The other couple was still in our hotel, so it essentially ruined our vacation. You should NEVER stay at this hotel.

Great Location, But Be Warned!
Staff is very nice. Great amenities, with a 24 hr workout room. Breakfast is plentiful with a great assortment of things to eat. Our one BR King Suite was very nice. The bed was very comfortable. The TVs huge. Wifi worked well. Small kitchenette would be great for long term stays. Parking below was a great convenience and made for a secure place to keep the car while exploring the city on foot. Only charged $25/day. The convenience of the location can not be beat!! Only a couple blocks from The Citadel and the Harbor!! You need to know that the Inn location is adjacent to the City Convention Center and it is a pedestrian nightlife area (Sackville Ave/Argyle St). On weekends, the restaurants/bars do not close until 2am. There are bands playing or outside music. With that, nightlife noise is elevated, so be forewarned. You will hear it. This is not a quaint/quiet area. You should call and see if your room abuts Argyle St. If you desire quiet, try the other side of the hotel. While Halifax has rules on noise, in a nightlife area, the rules are enforced only when complaints are registered. The noise from 12:15 to 1:30am required a phone call to the police to ask an amplified street performer to stop at playing directly under the Argyle St. side rooms. The two police officers stationed at Argyle St., were literally 100 ft away from the performer and did not do a thing for 60 minutes, until a supervising officer came by and talked to the performer.
