Comment from Hotel Management
Sep 13, 2018 by Michelle - Guest Services Manager
Thank you so much for your rating & review! We hope to welcome you back again.
We had a great stay at this hotel. Staff were great, wonderful selection for breakfast with a stylish eating area, and a spacious room and washroom. Only thing was there were a few hairs on the floor in the bathroom, that were far too long to be mine. However, the bed was very comfortable and we both slept straight through the night.

Despite being very busy, made to feel welcome
Pros:
Free breakfast, Close restaurants, Free Internet, free parking, nice chocolate lab dog
The hotel had adequate parking and reasonable rooms. It was very full but not too noisy and the staff coped well even when the line-up for the free breakfast was extensive - they kept the food replenished and kept open until all had finished. Food was reasonable not fancy but they did have fruit. Other than that good location for those with a car and nice view of lake.

Convenient to Dalhousie University
90% of the reason I chose this hotel was because it was very convenient to visit my daughter at Dalhousie. Room was clean. Staff was friendly. Bed was extremely comfy. Parking was very challenging one day due to a wedding reception taking place. Othewise, the parking was very convenient and close to building.

One of the nicest hotels on our trip
This hotel was great. The front desk personnel were very pleasant and accomodating. The hotel was renovated 4 years ago, so it was very modern and up-to-date. Everything was very clean and tidy. We had a beautiful view from a room overlooking Chocolate Lake. For anyone traveling from Peggy's Cove to Halifax, or vice versa, this hotel is right on the connecting route and sits just outside of the city of Halifax. The drive into the city is a straight shot from the hotel, and a very easy 10 minute drive. One of my favorite things was meeting the resident mascot, CoCo, the Chocolate Labrador Retriever. What a great dog he is! The photo on the internet of the exterior of the hotel is deceiving. The hotel is actually much nicer than that photo represents. Cannot think of any negatives about this hotel.

exceeded expectation
Stayed an extra night because the first night was so good! The room, the staff, the turndown service and the welcoming message from the manager were all great as was Cocoa at the front desk. Clean, comfortable and affordable.

NICE HOTEL, GREAT VALUE
mY WIFE AND i STAYED THE NITE OF mAY 15. It was a pleasure to see what positive changes they have made to what was the former Keddy's Halifax Hotel. Lovely staff, up to date rooms; lovely lobby. Dining room not quite up to par yet but we are sure it will come along. Great value for someone looking for a clean, crisp hotel at an affortable price in the Halifax area. Good job people!

I absolutely love this hotel! However I am upset that the rates through the Pacrim Hospitality have increased!
Pros:
Free breakfast, Close restaurants, Free Internet, Quiet
I absolutely love this hotel! However I am upset that the rates through the Pacrim Hospitality have increased! The value plus the greatness of this hotel were such an appealing package. I do hope they consider their pricing and lower them for families that need to travel to the city.
