Chris Canada

We really enjoyed the room, the location and the pleasant staff. Room service was great and the food was terrific. Such a comfy stay. We will definitely return to Halifax and would have no reservations to stay again at Lord Nelson

Jlendrum Canada

It's the little details that make the biggest differences -- the quality of the soaps and shampoos in the bathroom, the plushness of the towels, the texture of the sheets and quilts, the threadcount of the bed linens, the softness of the pillows. Lord Nelson excels at all of these things. I was totally exhausted after my flight and it was pure luxury to lie in their bed.

Joshua Czech Republic

Nice place to stay at. The staff were very friendly. I will stay there for my next visit.

Fawaz Kuwait

Beautiful hotel in great location. Loved the public gardens just across the road.
