Top St. Mary's University Hotel Reviews

The Lord Nelson Hotel & Suites

10/10 Excellent

"I have to say, staying at this hotel was a wise choice on my behalf! The location was excellent, close to so many places we wanted to visit. It was very walkable, but also easy to get an Uber if we were going farther away. The hotel itself was beautiful. The room was amazing with a wonderful view of the gardens but no noise from the street. The staff were friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend."

Garden South Park Inn

10/10 Excellent

"While the property is older, it is really clean and well maintained. Rooms are very cozy and quiet. Location is within walking distance of many attractions, restaurants, the public gardens and the train station. I felt comfortable walking in the evening on my own as there are a number of students in the area."

Cambridge Suites Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The room was extremely clean, breakfast was very good with many options, and the location was perfect. We found places to eat within a short walk and the hotel is right across from the Citadel."

Red George Inn and Suites

10/10 Excellent

"There is no staff on-site but when we needed supplies, they were delivered in minutes. Check-in was smooth and instructions were clear. Our room had an odd air-con connect to an odd window covering and the carpet is a little tired but the bathroom was spotless and the room was clean. Location was awesome!! I would recommend this property. We enjoyed our stay."

Atlantica Hotel Halifax

10/10 Excellent

"The Atlantica Hotel was perfectly located for us to easily walk to and along the waterfront area, an area which offered a variety of places to shop and many restaurants to dine at or simply stop in for a drink while enjoying the view. Also nearby, we visited The Halifax and enjoyed walking through the Public Gardens (a must see! when you visit the city). We enjoyed a dinner and breakfast at the restaurant located in the hotel. Both were delicious and the staff couldn't be nicer or more efficient. Thanks for a wonderful place to stay on our 2 day visit to your city."

The Sutton Place Hotel Halifax
