10/10 Exceptional

The hotel is lovely. We worries recommend. Good location and easy to get to downtown Halifax. The small restaurant in the hotel was good and fresh egg & ham wraps were included in the coffee room for breakfast. Note to hotel…. Some things could use a good scrub like the ceiling fan and balcony. The lakeside gazebo and deck are lovely but need painting and new chairs. The key card system needs updating as they failed a lot but the staff was very attentive to the issues we and our friends had. Thanks.

The hotel was nice the rooms are a bit outdated and have a very musty smell in the hotel. The bed had two very distinct dips. But the area is nice you can walk down to they've got a little beach set up and have your morning coffee.

Nice spot.
Nice location by the lake. Really good restaurant and gastro pub on site. We enjoyed the pool. The only thing that would have improved our stay would be an elevator for the 80 year old in our party.
