Residence Inn by Marriott Halifax Downtown

On site parking was full, had to use another nearby parkade.

Misleading on pool, not in hotel Misleading on Parking, not available

Hotel advertises they have a pool. They do not have a pool... they have access to a pool at a different hotel that is a 5 minute walk away. Not ideal for small children and a disappointment. Parking is very limited and we had to park at another hotels parking garage a few km away. Hotel is close to the waterfront and an easy walk.

Very expensive parking underground which wasnt available the first day we arrived. A reservation is needed for parking. Also first night we had to park 4 blocks away in the Metro Park which cost us $23. The next night in the reserved underground lot cost $25 +tax. We stayed on 2nd floor. Our room faced the Neptune theater and across the

We stayed for 3 nights. Room was clean and equipped with a kitchenette. Basement parking P1 was located with an awkward entrance and low overhead clearance in some spots.

The noise from the bars and vehicles around the hotel was pretty loud, when booking, ask for a room away from the street. Otherwise, the hotel was great! Having laundry facilities was also a bonus.

The property is good. Hallways smelled a bit musty but it’s fine. Staff was courteous and helpful. Area is safe. Lots of dining and entertainment options nearby. Breakfast was decent. Close to the boardwalk. A few issues 1. If your room is on the east side of the building, prepare for lots of noise until 2 AM, since it faces a strip of bars. 2. Has a room AC that is noisy. The plus side is it drowns out outside noise. :p 3. Property has limited parking, but there is additional paid parking available nearby. If you need parking in the building, book in advance.

Staff is very nice. Great amenities, with a 24 hr workout room. Breakfast is plentiful with a great assortment of things to eat. Our one BR King Suite was very nice. The bed was very comfortable. The TVs huge. Wifi worked well. Small kitchenette would be great for long term stays. Parking below was a great convenience and made for a secure place to keep the car while exploring the city on foot. Only charged $25/day. The convenience of the location can not be beat!! Only a couple blocks from The Citadel and the Harbor!! You need to know that the Inn location is adjacent to the City Convention Center and it is a pedestrian nightlife area (Sackville Ave/Argyle St). On weekends, the restaurants/bars do not close until 2am. There are bands playing or outside music. With that, nightlife noise is elevated, so be forewarned. You will hear it. This is not a quaint/quiet area. You should call and see if your room abuts Argyle St. If you desire quiet, try the other side of the hotel. While Halifax has rules on noise, in a nightlife area, the rules are enforced only when complaints are registered. The noise from 12:15 to 1:30am required a phone call to the police to ask an amplified street performer to stop at playing directly under the Argyle St. side rooms. The two police officers stationed at Argyle St., were literally 100 ft away from the performer and did not do a thing for 60 minutes, until a supervising officer came by and talked to the performer.

In the booking it said it had a pool but that was false the pool access is in the sister facility 2 blocks away downhill so if you wanted to go and relax than you had to walk back uphill to this hotel.

Underground parking was limited especially if you drive anything larger than car as many spots were taken up by construction materials and random furniture from the hotel. Other than that, my stay was great 👍

Great location. Very loud from the bars around. Worn down property and had ants in the room. Door wouldn’t open on first, second, and sometimes third try from the outside. The breakfast was good.

Everything was great. Staff was super helpful. Rooms were very clean

Waited 20 minutes for check in because there was no staff around. We even walked around to try and find someone to help us multiple times throughout our stay. The room we stayed in was not cleaned and someone else’s food was left in the fridge.

The property room had roaches, engineering was rude. Front desk clerk seemed not to know how to process payment.

There was a screwdriver left on the floor. Tap was broken and kept hitting the mirror Dishwasher was not attached to the wall and fell forward each time we opened it Pillows are way too thick and large. Not super clean, glass rings were left all over the table tops Overall, not a great stay…

Great staff - friendly and helpful. Hotel in a great location. Very clean and all appliances and room equipment in working order.

The room was quite nice. Roomier than some places downtown. It was clean and tidy. We had a queen suite. We have already booked our next downtown stay here in December

Fairly affordable when comparing to other hotels in the area. Unfortunately our window backed onto “maxwell’s plum” which was a very noisy bar, even on a Sunday till late. Location was great for restaurants and shops, and harbour front. We walked everywhere. The bathroom I expected more of, there was the pink mold that grows on grout on our floor and some other mold on the caulk in the shower. Tub didn’t drain well BUT I told them at checkout as it was fine enough during our stay and they were already calling maintenance by the time I walked out the door. Overall a good stay and place to sleep

Good breakfast buffet option. Room was clean. Next to convention center.

Very welcoming staff, well organized space, location was great and very clean.

Staff were fantastic and suite was spacious and comfortable

Spacious room with adequate kitchenette. Only issue was street noise overnight ( pub goers on Argyle St til 2 AM)

Excellent location and well equipped room But- the bed was like sleeping on a slab of concrete, extremely uncomfortable. Marriott beds are usually quite comfortable so we were disappointed by this place. Lots of outside noise due to the many bars around the area. Bring ear plugs and you’ll be fine.

We like the kitchenette and the layout of the space.

Great location, but, a tired hotel in need of rejuvenation (rooms included).

We booked a king room and the view out the window was looking into rooming house windows and a roof. No view of the street. I notified Front Desk that I was disappointed with the room and they accommodated me to another room with a great view of Halifax. The bed was comfortable and we made supper in the full kitchen. Parking is indoor and very convenient. Extra cost for parking. Staff is excellent. The complementary breakfast was spectacular. I highly recommend this property if you are staying in the Halifax area.

Location was perfect, room was clean and big. Will be our go to going forward

the main living room television wasn't working the ensuite sink wouldn't drain

Really nice and helpful front desk staff, and spacious, well-appointed rooms. Central to everything.

Everything was great. Staff was super helpful. Rooms were very clean

We booked our room here months in advance. Received a confirmation the day before our arrival. We flew in from the west coast and at our layover point received an e-mail saying they had overbooked the hotel and we were being sent to a different hotel. We specifically chose this hotel because of its central location around entertainment and dining options. They put us in a hotel on the periphery of downtown. In the e-mail they sent they made it sound like they were doing us a favor by making sure we were charged the same rate at the new place for the exact same room type and that there was still breakfast included :(

Great Location. Staff was very knowledgeable and excellent customer service.

Overall the stay was pleasant, after we were able to get checked in, there was some confusion because my room had been give to another guest so I assume they gave us her which then meant we didn’t have wifi because the room number and my last name didn’t match, also later into the evening suddenly several lights and outlets stopped working…other than that it was fine.

Great staff - friendly and helpful. Hotel in a great location. Very clean and all appliances and room equipment in working order.

We had a phenomenal stay from start to finish!!! The staff at the hotel were so professional, accommodating and friendly and went above and beyond! Thanks we will definitely be back!!!

Stayed 4 nights. Wasn't looking for daily room reset, but did ask if we could get more toilet paper and recycling bin emptied. On repeated times, said they would, but didn't. Finally we were much more stern. Finally day 3 they obliged! And then 11:15 on check out, while finishing a business call, front desk called and asked if we were out!! Additionally, they said their system had a gliltch so moving people to a hotel farther away. I protested and they finally reinstated, but other people who had booked months prior were moved. Appeared to be taking advantage of current pricing vs those of us who booked a while back anticipating the rush on rooms for the conference...

Had my room booked for weeks, and confirmed the day before arrival. Flew 6+ hours from London only to hear that they canceled my room that morning but made no attempt to contact me or rebook me elsewhere and the entire downtown area was sold out of hotels. Entire experience was a nightmare and still not resolution or reason given for this incident.

We prepaid for a room with another couple that we were on vacation with. When we arrived, they said they did not have our room. They sold it to someone else. So they put us up in another hotel that was 10 minutes away (and made us take a taxi there) and was not in the downtown area. The other couple was still in our hotel, so it essentially ruined our vacation. You should NEVER stay at this hotel.

It was nice and roomy, the location was great, walking distance from a lot of things. Parking was a bit of a struggle as there is a 6ft height restriction (we had a cargo top on our van), the alternate parking is a bit of a walk. The staff were friendly and the room was clean. Great hotel.

Very nice room. Clean and central. However, very noisy in the evenings on weekends as the hotel is located right across from Rogers Square which contains several bars and pubs.

Great location, right in the center of Halifax by Rogers center. Walkable to everywhere. Nice hotel, comfortable. Even the coach is comfy to sleep on. Easy parking too...

A great location for events at the Halifax Convention Centre as well as most of the downtown attractions

Very nice hotel in the middle of downtown Halifax. Staff very friendly. Everything here was so clean. The room was extremely spacious (as Residence Inns are) and this one was cleaner than some that I have seen in other cities. Great breakfast was provided. The parking was gone by the time we arrived at 8:00 p.m., so we parked three blocks away in the public garage and it only cost $12. The exercise was good for us. By the way, there are big hills to climb if that is an issue. We had drinks across the street in one of the many pubs. Restaurants are everywhere! The harbor was right next to the parking garage and had so many fun activities. Warning - there is noise at night due to the many nightclubs surrounding the area. My earplugs did the job.

This hotel was in a very convenient location to my conference and allowed enjoyable times walking the boardwalk along the habour front

The hotel is located right in front of an outdoor bar, so it was very noisy.

Great location for walking to the Citadel, Parks, and Waterfront. Close to many restaurants and bars. Did not need to use our car staying here. Great staff!

The hotel itself was very nice, and in a great walkable location. Staff were helpful and friendly and the breakfast was delicious. However - I wouldn't stay here again. I had a 2nd floor room facing the pub (Maxwell's Plum) and I barely got any sleep. The pub was blasting music well past 3AM every night which severely limited my sleep.

Great location in Halifax.

Really loved this stay! Room was amazing, Air Con was perfect. Bed super comfy. Staff were very friendly. Breakfast was great also, lots of options. Lots to do in the area, everything easy to walk to. Was stranded by Air Canada and everything about this stay was a great relief after a stressful ordeal trying to get home.

This property is so clean and fresh. The room was amazing with a great view of Argyle Street! We will totally stay again. Only thing we didn't like was during breakfast it was so busy there was no where to sit for over 35mins. But...it wa worth the wait.

L’hôtel est idéalement situé pour explorer le centre ville et le water front à pied. En revanche, il est mensonger de signaler une piscine car l’hôtel n’en dispose pas! Il s’agit en fait d’un accès à la piscine d’un autre hôtel situé à 5min à pied! De plus, la salle du petit déjeuner est vraiment trop petite pour la taille de l’hôtel et nous avons dû attendre avant d’avoir une place pour manger. Le petit déjeuner est correct. Le staff est efficace, gentil et arrangeant. la chambre était spacieuse et propre.

Front desk staff very friendly. Breakfast options including gluten free were good for a hotel.

Breakfast area was poorly set up, should have beeb bigger. Poorly designed. Not enough choices for gluten free products and lactose intlorance.

The breakfast was great!

We stayed for 2 nights. Room was nice, equipped with a kitchenette (full size fridge, dishwasher etc.) icemaker didn’t work however. When we entered the room upon arriving there was potato chips on floor by the bed and white residue on bathroom counter. There was no hair dryer in the bathroom?! We had to pay for parking. Staff was friendly. I woke up at 2am on the first night because of the noise from the street (people leaving the bars). In the morning I asked for a can which they delivered to the room so that helped drown out some outside noise but on the 2nd night we were woken up by the fire alarm that someone had pulled (no fault of the hotel). Breakfast was great the first morning but on the second morning there were many empty trays… Overall if you’re looking for an average room right in the middle of downtown Halifax, short walking distance to great restaurants and pubs and not worried about limited parking this is for you!

Hard bed terrible pillows and the breakfast service was terrible spent over an hour waiting for restock of food got none. Almost everything was empty! Staff very grouchy!!

Staff very professional and helpful. Enjoyed the rooftop. The breakfast was amazing

Good breakfast buffet option. Room was clean. Next to convention center.
