Top St. Mary's Cathedral Basilica Hotel Reviews

Cameo Hotel and Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, super clean!"

Red George Inn and Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Great location within walking distance to downtown. Owner was very accommodating. Would definitely recommend this house."

The Lord Nelson Hotel & Suites

8/10 Good

"Overall this was a quite fine stay. It was centrally located to downtown/waterfront attractions and restaurants and featured most of the amenities you would expect for a hotel at this price point. Be aware, the rooms are very loud. You can hear every door slam and every movement/voice out in the hallway. I would also expect a hotel of this price to be a bit more well-appointed (e.g., a hand towel rack in the bathroom, outlets on both night stands, robes. The rooms are also on the smaller side, and the bathroom is a bit tired. Parking is $35 CAD per day. The bar/restaurant is lovely."

Delta Hotels by Marriott™ Halifax Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Was very good. Close to all amenities."

Atlantica Hotel Halifax

10/10 Excellent

"Great place to stay"

The Halliburton

8/10 Good

Moxy Halifax Downtown
