Top Discovery Centre Hotel Reviews

Cambridge Suites Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"All good"

Prince George Hotel

8/10 Good

"Excellent location. Nice hotel. The only issue was the elevator access to the parking garage. The main elevator is not available (stated in maintenance) for both days we stayed in Price Edward. No prior notice was sent. There are people took their travel suitcase climbing two levels to the lobby. We were told during check in that we can use another elevator near the conference room. However, that route need to pass two doors with stairs and door bumps, which is not access friendly."

The Hollis Halifax a DoubleTree Suites by Hilton Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel is in a great location for walking around Halifax. Our room was very spacious and housekeeping was great. Hot tub is very small and the showers were closed when we went in the evening."

The Halliburton

8/10 Good

"We enjoyed staying in this historical property close to the waterfront. Staff were extremely professional and polite. We had read reviews so we’re not surprised at the stairs to our 3rd floor room and separate townhouse style of the hotel. If you have any mobility issues I would recommend requesting a ground floor room. The patio area looked lovely tho we had a short stay so didn’t experience it. Appreciated free parking and local recommendations for eating."
