Top Government House Hotel Reviews

The Sutton Place Hotel Halifax

10/10 Excellent

"Great stop ! Close to waterfront. Steps away from citadel."

The Halliburton

8/10 Good

"Nice property in historic buildings. Be mindful that there are stairs up and down required both to enter the building and parking lot. No elevator. Good night’s rest in a comfortable bed with spacious seating area. Parking off street free included in the price of the room. Rooms facing the street will have noticeable street noise from regular traffic and trucks going about their daily business. Breakfast is available for purchase. Of note, Halifax is a lovely city, very walkable. If you’re looking for a good view of Halifax from the water, save some money and take the three dollar ferry across the Harbour to Dartmouth rather than riding the harbor hopper."
