Very nice hotel close to the Citadel and Public Gardens. There are lots of dining options nearby. You can also walk to the waterfront in 15 to 20 minutes. Parking is $35 plus tax which I think is outrageous.

We had a wonderful stay at this hotel. One of the things we loved about The Lord Nelson is it’s history. This historic hotel has done a wonderful job preserving and showcasing its heritage, particularly in the entrance lobby. It was fascinating to take a few moments to look around and appreciate the history and character of this beautiful hotel. The area was great within walking to Citadel Hill, shopping and numerous restaurants in downtown Halifax. The room was exceptionally clean and comfortable, and the air conditioning worked perfectly. We needed something powerful considering the heat wave during our stay. The staff were incredibly friendly, helpful and accommodating, and we really appreciated the complimentary bottled water — a thoughtful extra touch. The only minor issue was that the bathtub did not drain properly, but this was a small inconvenience compared with all the positives. Overall we had a great experience and definitely stay here again.

Senteur de moisis provenant des fenêtres qui en plus siffle avec le vent comme les vieilles maisons. Nous étions au 9e étage en face du jardin public

Sadly this historic hotel has aged poorly and has not been maintained. It does not deserve its star rating or its price. Trim and wallpaper are chipped and ripped. Washrooms are dated and slightly grimy. AC units are hanging off the walls with wires exposed. Nothing horrible, but not a luxury hotel, more like a 3 star. The quality of the room varies depending on what you book (bigger rooms are nicer). The lobby and common areas are lovely and there are some nice amenities like a nespresso machine in the room and blackout curtains. Linens were nice. The location can’t be beat if you want to be close to the public gardens and the shops and restaurants of Spring Garden road. I wouldn’t choose to stay again unless the rooms were heavily discounted.

The hotel staff were amazing and they even gave our dog a gift bag with some treats upon check in. We had quite a bit of luggage with our dog crate and they were quick to bring our things to the room for us and back downstairs during check out. The only downside was that the air conditioning doesnt run into both the living room and bedroom and once you close the bedroom door it gets pretty warm in there. There was an event happening and parking was a bit of a mess but they got us setup on the overflow lot which is a quick 5 minute walk away.

The employees are always gracious and go above and beyond, in my opinion. The patio is a beautiful place for an afternoon cocktail. The room was spacious. My only complaint about the room, on this occasion, is that the bathroom was very small and congested for 2 people. Beyond that, I look forward to our next visit.

While the staff is very helpful and friendly, the rooms are small and the A/C is provided by noisy wall units. The location is great for walking around Halifax but the hotel has a feeling of painting over its age.

My husband and I got stuck on the elevator with 6 other adults. The elevator was stuck on the 6th floor. We used to phone on the elevator to alert staff to which they never answered. We rang the emergency button with no response. One of the guys on the elevator with us called the front desk to which he was going to put us on hold , luckily he listened to what was going on. However he didn’t know how to handle the situation and was talking to a women in the background and she yelled “WHAT” which isn’t a great thing to hear when you’re stuck on an small elevator with 6 other adults and it getting very hot inside the small space. We managed to pull open the door and jumped out. We then waiting outside the elevator waiting for someone to come to which no one came urgently. Which is concerning if we weren’t able to jump out , how long would we have been stuck in there ! We told to front desk on check out and they offered a complimentary drink or appetizer for the trouble. I would highly suggest a staff training on how to handle this situation if it were to ever occur again .
