“Good hotel - great location”
This is a small Comfort Inn chain hotel that appears to have been previously an independently owned hotel. Don't expect chocolates on your pillow, but it's clean, fairly comfortable (creaky desk and chair), the internet works great, in-room coffee is nice, and room is typical Comfort Inn - you aren't likely to want to just hang in the room all day, but it's a great home base for travels, which is why you're in Nova Scotia in the first place! It is a wonderful location next to Lake Banook and Sullivan's Pond; very nice walking routes through the parks, and people use it no matter the weather. It's motivating to see the rowers out practicing in the rain and mist, and the walkers and joggers doing the same thing. The Mic-Mac Mall is also nearby. Hotel is right off #111 making access to either Halifax bridge very easy - through town for MacDonald or via #111 for MacKay, so it's easy to get to Halifax but escape the hustle and bustle by staying in Dartmouth. Staff very friendly and helpful. There is a bar and restaurant on site but we did not try them. Parking not a problem despite the small lot - can park in a shopping center across the street if needed. We will absolutely stay here again.
