Top St. Mary's Cathedral Basilica Hotel Reviews

Red George Inn and Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful stay"

Cameo Hotel and Suites

8/10 Good

"We were very happy with the location and the suite was clean with everything we needed. Waiting till just a few hours of arrival to check in on line was a bit frustrating - since it is all online it leaves one feeling a little uncertain whether it will all fall into place. Parking was expensive - not sure this can be improved? Otherwise really enjoyed our stay."

The Halliburton

8/10 Good

"This is a very cute little place to stay, which is excellently situated by the harbor. The young lady that checked us in was very friendly and welcoming and helped us carry the luggage up two flights of stairs. The extra parking space that was provided was also excellently situated. The only downfall for us was the tiny double bed and the lack of head room as we were in the attic."

Prince George Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was very good with the exception of one of the elevators out of service which caused delays and crowded conditions."

Atlantica Hotel Halifax

8/10 Good

"Good location and staff very helpful but expensive and the cleaner did not show up on the first day of my 2-day stay."

Residence Inn by Marriott Halifax Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"I love that it was very close to the Halifax waterfront"

Cambridge Suites Hotel

8/10 Good

"Nice staff, good breakfast, clean and very comfortable beds. Would definitely stay again!"
