This seagoing vessel is on the to-do lists of many visitors to Downtown Halifax. But C.S.S. Acadia isn't the area's only highlight. Halifax Citadel, Dalhousie University, and Public Gardens Park are some other interesting attractions nearby.

8.6/10 Excellent! (1,009 reviews)

We stayed at this inn for 5 days to explore the Halifax area. The convenient location was the best part. There were a few things that made our stay less enjoyable. The walls are very thin and we could hear noise from the hallway, outdoors and upper rooms. There was lots of noise from other guests in the early morning and late evening. The beds were not comfortable as they were too soft. The linens were old and pilling. They also did not make beds or change linens for the whole stay. The fitness room was closed the whole time and the pool was also closed for part of our stay. The breakfast was not very appealing. It was basically toast and a few small apples. Overall, I would not recommend or stay there again.
