I've stayed at the Westin Nova Scotian multiple times this year, and as someone who spends at least…read morea third of my life in hotels, I've become particular about what makes a place worth returning to: solid value, actual comfort, walkability, and ideally, a restaurant that doesn't make you immediately search for alternatives. The Westin checks all those boxes--and throws in pet-friendliness for good measure. The hotel itself is beautiful, bright, and recently renovated. Well, almost everything. The fitness center requires navigating a peculiar elevator tucked away in what feels like a completely different building, as if the gym is in witness protection. But the rooms? Quiet, spacious, and outfitted with those signature Marriott down comforters that make leaving bed feel like a personal failure. The on-site restaurant is legitimately excellent--good enough that I eat there even when I'm not staying at the hotel. Breakfast is solid: the buffet does the job with a live omelet station and rotating options, but ordering from the menu gets you the real highlights, like seared duck frittata or what might be the best avocado toast in the city (smoked salmon, poached egg, the works). Happy hour is even better--dangerously so. My wife and I once ordered one of everything, assuming tapas-sized portions. They had to push another table over just to fit it all. The baos and mussels were standouts. The jackfruit? Once was enough. Parking is slightly odd--it's around the corner behind the building--but accessible via elevator, and conveniently shares space with the Hertz rental center. The building also houses a few independent vendors (spa services, boutiques, home decor consultants), though they're not formally part of the hotel. Location-wise, you couldn't ask for better: minutes from the waterfront, blocks from the city's best restaurants. A car here is optional at best. If you're Marriott Platinum Elite or higher, upgrades are surprisingly easy to snag, even during summer, unless there's a major convention in town. There are only a handful of hotels in the world I'd return to without hesitation. The Westin Nova Scotian is one of them. In fact, my experience here was good enough that it played a part in why I moved to Halifax.

Are you ready to re-live your college glory days? Party on campus and live in a dorm? Eat Ramen…read morenoodles every day? Maybe not the latter. Since the Acadia University residence is just steps away from downtown Wolfville and its many restaurants, non-Ramen dining options abound. All this could be yours for a very student- or backpacker-friendly price, which is of particular interest in this part of Nova Scotia that lacks hostels or other budget accommodation. Acadia University opens its doors - or rather the doors of its residences - for short-term stays from May to September. Standard single dorm rooms are available at only CAD55/night. There are also double rooms and deluxe single rooms available. Rooms are clean. Shared bathrooms down the hallway are cleaned every morning, and I never had to queue. Oh, and the price includes WiFi and access to the Athletics Complex - which is a wonderful way to spend a rainy day!

The view from this campground is absolutely stunning! Breathtaking!…read more This campground is located along the Five Islands region of the Bay of Fundy, where the tides rise and fall up to 46 feet, twice daily. At high tide, the islands are a beautiful sight - but as low tide approaches, mud flats appear, extending outward from the campground more than three miles. It is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED that you DON'T go out on the flats, since the water comes back in more quickly than you can run! The campground itself is more geared toward RV camping than tent camping, and as such is wide open, with RV parking shoulder-to-shoulder. The limited tent sites are less expensive, but also within the main campground. There is a small store at the main office, and the proprietors are ex-pat Americans that stay up there "during the season" only. They live in the large RV by the main gate, and are scrupulous about keeping the place clean and quiet. The restroom/shower facilities are old and leave some to be desired. My wife claims the women's side is well lit, but I can tell you the men's side has poor lighting. The stalls are somewhat run-down, and the showers cost a "loony," which is a 1 Canadian dollar coin, for 8 minutes. We're already planning a return trip to Nova Scotia, and may choose to stay here again.

Customer Service is not practised here!!! Don't book more than one night, and if you like, then…read moredecide if you want to stay longer (I have to admit the view is beautiful, expect very windy days though). I feel I was trapped when I reserved a two week stay in "Paradise". Read their terms and conditions and if you marry that with their NO REFUND OR NO CREDIT policy you are trapped if you book from far away. They do not let you in to see your site until you pay the full amount up front! Which we did, and the site was not what we agreed upon on the phone! once we paid, hehehe the "cash deal" for the full two weeks the Manager/Owner Sandy would do nothing for us when we decided we were mislead and wanted out...we even offered to split the difference and asked that she refund us the second week and we would suck up the first week. We were told, close to the bank, trees on one side, and the rest of the campground on the left. Sandy and her play on words insisted that our trees on one side consisted of alder bushes 40' away, to the far left of the front row where our view was blocked when an RV pulled up and was allowed to set-up where they wanted. We had to park in a very specific place to protect other peoples view. We saw the site we were promised, it was open and they told us our trailer would not fit...although we clearly stated it was a 30' trailer when we booked. If you book ahead you have up to seven days prior to cancel and if you do they only offer a nontransferable 1 year voucher if you want to rebook. Without mentioning their name, I checked around to other campsites, told my story and was surprised when I heard this campground mentioned back to me as having known problems like this. Looking at my wife crying out of frustration and looking at Sandy tapping the sign with her pen saying that "the policy is there, well displayed...take it or leave it!" was one of the worst camping experiences I have ever had!!! This Sandy claims she is the 'Manager' only and the campground is owned by a company, a Nova Scotia numbered company, which I assume is owned by this Sandy and her husband. Sandy is referred to as the owner by the staff, listed in the Doer's and Dreamers as the contact with her husband, but will put off the responsibility when a problem arises. The staff is directed not to give out their last names or their numbers if there is a problem, they are not registered with any of the regulatory organizations, that I could tell, except they are in the Doer's and Dreamers publication put out by the NS Dept. of Tourism. There is no recourse for this misrepresentation! Secondly, I must tell you all that this is not a kid friendly campground...a run down rec hall that should be inspected for safety, retched old slide and tetter-totter, swing set with only one baby swing on it (we were told it was going to be rectified by replacing the swings and never was), dirty pool with no furniture around it that opens at 11am if you can get a staff member to get off the office deck to come down and open it (took about 30 mins for them to drive 60' and open a lock), $2 showers and basketball court with no backboard/hoop/net. Be aware of this campground, my opinion is they are financially strapped, they take advantage of campers via their terms and conditions + policies, and they could care less about their customers. Read and try to understand their policies online - good luck to you!

For some reason the room was supplied with a landline though there was nowhere to plug it in. To make it perfect. The room was fumigated from 8 to 9 pm with something strong that made my eyes bright pink. Management shows in service. Have pictures of the wipes with dirt that I cleaned off the floor.
