This is a beautiful hotel, clean with stunning rooms and a wonderful view of the lake. Staff was friendly and very helpful. There is no elevator and staff was quick to help with luggage. Great restaurant too. We would be happy to stay here again.

Lovely architecture. Overall would benefit from a refresh. Location of included continental breakfast was unclear and we ended up in the restaurant where we paid for breakfast (it was good but…) Need better signage or any signage! Restaurant closed for the one night we were there and we were handed a brief list of available takeout or delivery options - all pizza! Googled a lovely place ourselves about 10 minutes away.

Nice hotel in a beautiful location

Location: 10 minutes to Halifax airport and 30 minutes to downtown Halifax.
The hotel room was fresh, clean and well appointed offering a filtered view of the lake. The property is lakeside and beautiful to walk. The location is very convenient just off the highway yet remarkably quiet. We ate multiple excellent (not included) breakfasts in the hotel.

wonderful romantic place to stay

Near to the airport,yet it seems you are miles away in a quiet, lovely setting. Have your aperitif in the cosy bar while waiting for your food to be prepared,and then move on to the pleasant restaurant with just the right atmosphere. We always make a point of staying after a long transatlantic flight. Excellent service.
