We stayed at the Marriott Harbourfront over the holiday attending the World Juniors. We booked early not knowing when the games we would be attending would be. When we went to change our reservations they tried to jack our room prices up by about $100 a night. I have never seen a hotel try and take advantage of a client this badly and would not recommend staying there.

Stayed here for New Year’s Eve & everything was perfect. Room was large and comfortable. Desk, couch/settee, fridge, etc. Staff were all helpful and friendly. We had forgotten a bottle opener and the front desk happily tracked one down for us. Had a beautiful harbour view. It is right downtown close to all the amenities of downtown Halifax.

Luxurious. Love staying here! We arrived on Christmas Day at around 6pm. The hotel was quiet, and we had a pleasant room with a view of the harbor. The room was spacious, and the hotel left a very sweet Christmas Card with hand signatures from many of the hotel staff. Included was a small package of Lindt chocolates. Very thoughtful and sweet.

Good experience despite hurricane Fiona. Found our Insight Tour charged us much more than the hotel rate. Do not travel with Insight Tours. We were so very badly treated. Tour was cancelled even though hurricane was forecast, we were told no money would be refunded if we were not in Halifax by the first day of our tour. Cost us extra $6000 for air fares . Insight not at all responsive. So disappointing.

The bed was really really comfortable. The room however was quite small and lacked plug sockets. The first night was extremely noisy from 12-5am. Apparently even though on the fifth floor it was near a bar. We changed rooms and had stained sheets but it was quiet so worth it. The hotel took off the car parking for us though it didnt really compensate me for the lack of sleep!! Fabulous location
