Cozy Historic Inn

I have stayed at this hotel a number of times. Whenever I stay here, I feel like I am staying at a friends house. The rooms just feel so homey and cozy. A little bit outdated but I think it lends to the charm of the inn. When you walk in to the main building (there are 3 buildings in total), there is a super cozy library room with a fire place and you can sit and enjoy a glass of wine or a cup of coffee. The hotel and rooms are very clean. I have always received great customer service. I really love the location of this hotel as it is within walking distance to the waterfront. This hotel feels like it is a 10 minute walk from almost everything - Spring Garden Road, restaurants, and the VG Hospital. It's in a great location. The only downfall for some people might be that there is not an elevator in any of the 3 buildings.

There was a mouse in my room the first night. I was immediately moved to another room on the lower level which was unbearably hot (in February). Nothing could be done to control the heat as it was central heating. I canceled my 2nd night and was only charged for half the night.

This is a hidden gem and honestly can’t believe we hadn’t found it before. Clean, quiet, comfortable bed, and all the charm of an historic property. With a two minute walk we were surrounded by restaurants and shopping and the waterfront just steps away. Would highly recommend.

Location was excellent. Parking was nice to have. The rooms are a little dated and the tv is small- but not a deal breaker. It is in an older set of building so you have to go with the flow. Overall not a bad stay.

Had a fantastic stay at the Halliburton Inn. Such a great little building with a ton of character. The room was a good size, with what looked like a recently renovated bathroom. The bed was a little firm for my taste but didn’t take away from our experience. The area around the inn is really the main win, here. The waterfront is easily walked to, as are many great restaurants and pubs. I would I recommend the Halliburton to anyone looking for a quiet stay in a building with charm and a great location.
