Pros

Oceanwise-certified seafood restaurant emphasizing environmental sustainability

Rooftop terrace offering harbor views

Some top-floor rooms feature private balconies overlooking the harbor

Bar service Tuesday through Saturday from 2 PM to 10 PM

Cons

0.5 miles distance to Halifax Public Gardens

Limited bar operating hours

“In my opinion, the central downtown location is a definite advantage, putting guests within walking distance of the harbor and Halifax's main attractions. I noticed the rooftop terrace and spa stand out, offering unique perspectives and relaxation options. From what I've gathered, it seems well-suited for both business and leisure travelers seeking comfort and convenience.”
