Top Shakespeare by the Sea Hotel Reviews

The Sutton Place Hotel Halifax

10/10 Excellent

"A lovely hotel. We had dinner two different nights in the restaurant. The food and service was wonderful but the music spoiled the experience. Conversations got louder as people tried to speak over the music. Some nice soft dinner music would’ve made dinner so much more enjoyable."

The Barrington Hotel

8/10 Good

"办美签最合适的酒店之一，酒店大堂后面廊桥通道可以直通美国签证领馆"

Moxy Halifax Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"It’s new and modern. Very clean. The staff were exceptional!"

Four Points by Sheraton Halifax

10/10 Excellent

"Loved the location near the harbor in Halifax"

The Lord Nelson Hotel & Suites

10/10 Excellent

"What a beautiful hotel! We enjoyed our stay here. The parking was easy; they provided a card to scan in and out of the garage unlimited times for a cost of course, but it was well worth it. Everyone was helpful and friendly. There is an espresso machine maker and fridge provided as well as 2 bottles of water. Beds were very comfortable and loved the pillows. The restaurant on site was very good. Everything we had there was absolutely delicious. There are a few things to walk to in the area, the Public Gardens are work walking through and there is a mall that you can access from the hotel that was convenient. I would definitely stay here again if I was in the area."

Courtyard by Marriott Halifax Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Front desk staff very helpful re: online access, luggage storage & info re: nearby sites."

Cameo Hotel and Suites

8/10 Good

"This is a refurbished and converted commercial building in the downtown, entertainment district. We had a 2 bedroom suite with a full kitchen with stove, fridge, dishwasher, 3 pc bathroom. It is an open concept living room, kitchen, with large windows that can be opened for fresh air. The building and suite design were well done. We liked that there is complimentary laundry machines on 2 floors. Comfortable beds and the rooms were a decent size. However, be aware that the building backs on to Argyle Street which is a pedestrian only street with several restaurants and bars which play loud music--however the volume was reduced by 11:30 or so. Foam ear plugs are provided, but if you have proper ear plugs, bring them. I slept in the 2nd bedroom, which was away from the sound source and it was quiet in that room. These suites are set up for extended stays."

Red George Inn and Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room, easy instructions"

Cambridge Suites Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great location wonderful staff"
