Staff were friendly and overall the room was comfortable. It was a little expensive but we wanted something within walking distance. There was some confusion over EV parking which was new. There was a minor maintenance matter with the door to the bathroom and the room was too warm. Thus the good but not excellent rating.

Room was really really dirty. We’ve stayed at the lord Nelson exclusively when in Halifax dozens of times, and every time we’ve loved it. This time however, it was extremely dirty especially for not being a basic room. Pretty disappointing

We booked the Petite room for 2 adults due to the cheaper room rate. When checking in they upgraded our room for no extra charge. Staff are friendly. The room was clean and the bed was fairly comfortable, more on the firm side. Nespresso machine in the room and complimentary bottle of water. Lobby is beautiful. We didn’t have breakfast on site but the restaurant looked lovely.
