The Lord Nelson Hotel & Suites

We stayed in a Deluxe One Bedroom Suite on the 7th floor and it was absolutely beautiful and cozy. The suite had a Nespresso machine, complimentary water, and a very comfortable king bed. The staff were all incredibly friendly and welcoming.nnDuring the parade, the hotel offered hot chocolate and candy canes, which was such a thoughtful touch. We also loved the chocolates at the front desk!nnThe only downside was that someone on our floor was blasting music for hours late at night. I called the front desk around midnight, and although they said they would send security, the noise continued for a long time, making it really hard to sleep. I ended up needing a nap when I got home. We stayed here two years ago and didn’t have this issue, so it was bit disappointing.nnAside from the noise situation, everything else was great. We really enjoyed our stay overall and still appreciate the hotel’s charm and amazing staff. They did apologize to me ar check out but.nnParking tip: A full day at the mall level was cheaper at $20 compared to their $28

I am visiting The Lord Nelson in Halifax for unfortunate reasons, my mom is in a hospital nearby. My greeting walking in however was amazing! The three staff that rushed to help me were incredibly charming & professional. I arrived after an overnight flight with one of my dogs and didn’t sleep a wink but these three made me feel like I’m here on a lovely vacation. The early check in really made my day & I’m so grateful they helped with my bags as I brought many. I should have grabbed their names but I’m quite exhausted. They provided a cute little bag with a dog toy, food and clean up bag for outdoor doggy bathroom visits. Although I have all this with me, that was a very sweet & thoughtful touch. The pet rate is very fair and you don’t need to pay for it nightly. Parking was SO easy, it’s heated & underground. Great location - rooms are super clean, the bed and pillows are SO comfy. Love the nespresso machine and products in the washroom. They have a 24 hour gym, laundry service, access to the YMCA and 20% off the spa. The restaurant menu looks delicious - can’t wait to try that and relieved they have room service! I think I’ll need it.

We have visited several hotels in Halifax area, and selected the Lord Nelson for our event. This is a very nicely renovated hotel with great event space and excellent service. Hotels food is usually 5 out of 10, but the Lord Nelson gets 10 out of 10 from our international attendees and that means a lot. Meals were healthy, delicious, and artfully decorated. The event manager, Jahnia, was above and beyond helpful, ensuring a smooth event operation, setup, and addressed all our requests in a timely fashion. The crew on the ground make the experience a great one and makes us come back. Shout out to Amir at the catering service with being on top of everything and helping with all our needs. We had a great experience and happy with this choice.

So many things went right with my stay at the hotel from Sept 16 to 19th.nCheck in was very positive. A sweet, smart an chatty reception agent. She gave me a beautiful room on the 9th floor. She really shined by sending me a handwritten note in my room a couple days later welcoming me to Halifax. In the note was reference to why I was in town, and wishing me the best. I was very touched and still have the note in my briefcase.nMy room was excellent. Nice to open the fridge and see all I needed for coffee waiting inside. Comfortable couches and bed. Shower was excellent, lots of pressure and roomy. Nice quality amenities. Very quiet as well.nEasy parking, but if I had a few bags, I would drop them in front of the hotel with the bell man and then park. Humping a few bags in an unfamiliar parking garage, and then the trek to the actual hotel could start you off on the wrong foot.nThe hotel is right across the street from the Public Gardens. A great place to take your morning coffee.nThe real kicker about my stay was that I forgot about the three shirts I had in the wardrobe. I called and the hotel sent me my shirts by Canada Post with only the postal charge. Legendary service. Can't use names, but the person I spoke to about my shirts was as nice and sweet and the front desk person.nThe location is great for nightlife as well. Only a ten minute walk to be in the heart of the Halifax restaurant/bar scene, but nice and quiet by the hotel.nAgain, many thanks to the hotel staff for not only a great stay, but for sending me my shirts.nHighly recommend.

I was heading back to hotel after dinner and noticed some police gathering in the lobby. Thought nothing of it, and spent a few hours in my room. Then I decided to go for a walk, then there were over 40 police vehicles outside whom had tapped off the whole perimeter of the hotel. Once I left the hotel the police wouldn’t allow me to re-enter. Wouldn’t tell me what was going on and were very vague. Turns out a bomb threat was made regarding an Israel tennis team staying in the area. Thought it was odd the hotel wouldn’t inform and of the guests regarding a threat/issue like this. Had to spend several hours outside allowing the police to perform their investigation. Overall nice place.
