The hotel has lots of character, and the rooms are all top class. We got upgraded to a king signature suite overlooking the harbor. The view was great, the room was very tastefully decorated and very roomy. There was a two sided fireplace, with one side, facing the bed and the other facing a sitting area. The desk area overlooked the harbor. Underground parking was very spacious, and included a number of EV charge points, which is a great option when visiting. We were able to park our car and just walk through the city to enjoy the Local pubs, bars, restaurants, and shops. This is our new favourite place to stay in Halifax

In a hotel that is objectively massive, they treated us like we were the only people there even though they had hundreds of guests. There were many amenities in this hotel that we did not have time to try, but we saw a lot of guests heading to the bar, restaurant or fitness center. The rooms and bathrooms were clean, quiet and comfortable, but a little bit tight and I'm average size. The location is outstanding. We walked down to the boardwalk one day and took advantage of the boat tours. Many coffee locations and restaurants are within a few blocks as well. Parking is pricy, but we used the Indigo Neo lot that is adjacent to the Westin lot and paid $54 CAD for a week.

The kind desk person got me a lakefront room even though the reservation didn't technically say so. They went out of their way to be accommodating and I appreciated it. The lake is beautiful and worth the stay on that side. Beds were comfy with lots of pillows. Body wash, shampoo, and conditioner are provided in the shower in pump bottles. Breakfast is included for hotel guests and offered a variety of hot and cold food options. The breakfast seating area is large, and there is an outdoor deck with tables if the weather cooperates. Everything was clean and the coffee was good. The pool area was clean and I had it to myself for most of the time I used it. There was an arcade on the same floor which I wanted to use (air hockey!) but I ran out of time. There is free parking and it was a short drive into Halifax. It's close enough to the city but far enough out to be quiet and relaxing. I would definitely return.

And while I've never been an overnight guest myself, I've visited its enchanting interiors and will marvel accordingly. My roommate's parents were in town and staying at the Waverley. Living quite close at the time, we took a walk over to have a visit and investigate the premises. Decor embraced Old Victorian Style and European decadence. The space was personal, rich and beautifully presented. Chandeliers, wallpapering and popping textures appealed to my visuals. It all takes one back to an older time, when furnishings were classic and gladly adorned. Its bed and breakfast style allows for a home away from home feel, but in the lapse of Old Style luxury. Apparently rooms each have their own unique look- no two the same! This would make for reason to come again... They offer free wi-fi in all guest rooms and a tasteful hot breakfast buffet for all guests. (also free) The staff seemed kind and welcoming in my brief encounter and it all made me reflect quite positively on this little spot! The Waverly has age to back its appeal. The inn has been around for many generations and housed Halifax's own Anna Leonowens and Jon Doul. And on an international scale: the one and only Oscar Wilde! With such deep roots and moderate prices, The Waverly proves to be a top contender in Halifax hospitality. If I ever need to hotel in Halifax, this is a spot that comes to mind!

Well, where do I begin:…read more The hotel is near a convention center - literally across the street. If you're going to the convention center and that's your goal for a quick commute this is your hotel. That was not my goal. It was a family vacation and we wanted a center location for our family to stay. The center location was fabulous. and the staff were friendly enough. Breakfast was fine (eggs, sausage, cereal, bagels, etc on the buffet area). The staff at the breakfast was more than amazing. Especially one waiter - we got there at 930am and several people were running up right before. and he was so good. Breakfast is included and it runs until 10 am. We opted for a studio bedroom with a queen and a pull out couch for our young daughter. When our daughter was pulling out the drawers in the kitchen we luckily realized the knives were in the 2nd to the last drawer to the floor. For the love of god - please move the knives to a higher drawer. Who puts the sharp knives in a low drawer? Sharp knives always go in a top drawer. C'mon people. We had no sheets/pillows/blankets for said pull out couch and had to run and track down a maid who was very gracious to us. We made her bed and thought it was going to be a great night. Well what we did not realize is that the hotel directly faces Maxwell's Plum. What is that? It is a bar with an outdoor funfest. It is loud and will keep you up way past a child's bedtime and then even your adult bedtime if you are one of the lucky guests to have a literal audience facing this. If you come here - I highly suggest you opt for a bedroom not facing this area. Secondly - do not opt for a room near the stairwell either - we had a double whammy. Music and the sound of the stairwell door slamming. Meant for a lovely Friday night. We probably went to bed around 12 or 1? Also it cost $25 to park. We couldn't get out of the parking garage for a while because several people were smoking right in front of the exit location. (Granted not the hotels issue directly but it just added to the fabulous evening we had).

The staff is absolutely wonderful, and the hotel is charming, but a bit too run down…read more One of our biggest complaints are the smokers and vapers hanging out in the parking lot. They stand right at the bottom of the ramp and stairs so you cannot avoid them. It stinks, makes you gag, and just looks tacky. If staff, then go out back. If guests, go do it in your car. If others, get rid of them. There is a sign that says no vaping or smoking near the entry, but you still have to get through the crap to get to the entry. Our other main complaint is the air conditioning. The first room had lousy air conditioning. Add to that the huge, sharp, crack in the window (running from top to bottom), a couple other problems, and we were not comfortable. They moved us to another room on another floor, and the a/c wasn't much better. At full blast, the fan didn't circulate well, and you could only feel the cold if you put your hand on the worn metal of the a/c unit. There was a thermometer in the room, and it never went below 75F. We ended up having to buy a portable fan to blow on me while sleeping. Moving around in the room made us too hot, so we rarely spent any time there. My husband, who gardens in 100F weather, even had a cold damp facecloth on his head to keep from sweating. Decorations in the hall and room were broken. The brown towels had bleach stains on them. The microwave was antiquated, and we unplugged it. The little fridge froze our water (although, I guess that could be a plus). If they were to put some love and money into this place it could really shine. We prefer supporting small businesses over major hotel chains, and we like the charm of classic decor, but between the over-heated rooms and smokey entry, we would not recommend this to many of our friends. Truly a shame because, for our needs, the location was terrific and, as previously mentioned, the staff was very nice. SO much potential.
