Lock in a great price for The Lord Nelson Hotel & Suites – rated 8.6 by recent guests!

to get started.

This hotel is in an excellent location. The rooms are spacious and very comfortable. It's nice to stay in a hotel that has a bit of history to it.

Seanav, Ireland

The location was excellent. The staff at the hotel were exceptionally helpful and responsive when I needed something. The bed was very comfortable.

Susan, Canada

The location of this hotel proved to be fantastic. We were close to everything...restaurants, a park, movie theatre, shopping, the waterfront.

Kathy, Canada

Years ago, the Lord Nelson was the centre of high society in Halifax. Times have changed but the hotel retains that image with doormen to greet you, large decorative lobby with high ceilings and lots of wood and a restaurant/bar just off the lobby. Our room was large with lots of good quality linens and hardwood floors instead of carpeting.

Gary, Canada

Place and location was good. Took a walk in the park in front... Quite lovely. This location is far more quiet than hotels along the Harbour, so would recommend this location.

Anne, Canada

Loved the Aveda toiletries and the piano playing in the mezzanine. The lobby was nice and welcoming.

Marie, Canada

I really liked the look and feel of the hotel. The room was exceptionally small, smaller than I had expected, the bathroom was like a closet! But the quality of the room was very high and the bed was very comfortable. It was so close to shops and the waterfront which is probably the number one reason why I would stay here again, the location really was great. Trying to get our bags up from the underground parking actually into the hotel was difficult. We had a very heavy bag and couldn't find an elevator from the parking so we had to carry our large bag up two flights of stairs and then down another set of stairs in the hotel, I have no idea how seniors manage this because we could barely manage it. I do think it was over priced but over all we enjoyed our stay.

Hannah, Canada

Great location. Large room. Good beds, linens, quiet.

Gordon, Portugal

The room was fantastic and the service was perfect. Totally enjoyed our stay at your hotel!

What Travelers Love About This Location

“We just spent a shot night at Halifax, before we left the hotel already in the early morning to continue to the west. So we didn't have seen too much of the hotel, but everything, we saw and need, was akright and in perfect shape, inbcluding the fast check-in and check-out.”

“Modern, clean hotel - nice room layout. Much larger TV than most hotels (50+ inches).”

Ben

“Breakfast buffet was good and reasonably priced. The "economy room" was larger than expected. Though the bathroom was a challenge as it was very small. The bed was exceedingly comfortable.”

눉This was a very nice property, the only thing that let it down was the quality of the food on the breakfast menu, we breakfasted too late for the buffet. I would stay again at The Lord Nelson but I would breakfast elsewhere.
눇This hotel is in an excellent location. The rooms are spacious and very comfortable. It's nice to stay in a hotel that has a bit of history to it.

눉Staff a reception desk could have lessons in how to be friendly. The young blonde girl that served us had no customer service skills at all. She can use a computer well but little eye contact and not a smile the whole time we were being served. Also we had trouble using our Debit/credit card went to the BoM and teller told us that if the hotel used the intact correctly then the card would switch from debit to credit.!

눉The room was a bit small to my liking, and though there was an expresso machine, but there seemed to be no coffee supplies and the instructions for using the machine seemed more complicated than necessary.
눇The location was excellent. The staff at the hotel were exceptionally helpful and responsive when I needed something. The bed was very comfortable.
