5 star accommodations in the heart of Halifax! Hotel staff was super friendly.
Pros. The Lord Nelson is an old fashioned classy hotel with modern amenities. We especially enjoyed the decor of the lobby and mezzanine, and the hotel restaurant which was in the style of a classic English public house. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The rooms were very nice and the beds comfortable.
Cons. Parking was a bit expensive at $28 (CAD) a day, and getting to and from the parkade was a bit of an ordeal, but being right downtown these things are expected. Many more positives to outweigh this one minor negative.
Pros. The staff was great, excellent service!!
Cons. The insulation in the rooms need to be taken care off, the heater worked to much for a room of its size, near the window it was cold, and on the other side very hot.
Pros. the hotel staff, without exception, were friendly, courteous and extremely helpful. What a delight !
Pros. The location and most staff were great. Food was good.
Cons. Rooms were not kept cleaned and aired, dust on floors was a bit tooo much. Training (front desk) and attire (restaurant) of staff NEEDS to be revisited urgently. For a hotel of The Lord's Nelson's supposed standing change should be readily available to its guests...I was told there was no change for a 100 USD! USD should be a currency you readily accept. If there is doubt about authenticity maybe a counterfeit machine should be employed at front desk. Train the staff. Have reliable tour companies on call for guests.
Pros. Everything
Cons. I can not pinpoint anything that I can honestly say I disliked except I thought parking should be included in price.
Pros. Great value and service. Close to great places in Halifax.
