Home away from home

Awesome experience, beds are comfy, service attentive, had a roof cargo box on so we couldn’t fit in the hotel parking garage which allows only 6'2" height space but the hotel has a oversized vehicle parking lot in back of the hotel which was great.

Decent hotel in a nice location, friendly staff on site. However, we had issues with our reservation and were really frustrated by the reservation staff/management’s unwillingness to work with us. It was really disappointing and put a damper on our entire stay.

Stayed here before. Will stay here again!

Loved our repeat stay at the Lord Nelson. What a fantastic hotel in the heart of Halifax. The room was luxurious. The bed soft supple and so comfy. Loved the Nespresso machine in our room. This time it was just for one night, but we can't wait to come back for another longer repeat stay. Our new favorite!
