Bit of a mixed bag. The hotel consists of several separate buildings along a street, entry to each involves some pretty steep steps. We ascended the steeps to reception, with luggage to be redirected after checkin to a building 3 blocks down the street. Not a great start at 21:30 after travelling all day. Added to that was the QR code to order your breakfast before 22:00 . That said, the room was very good, spacious with arm chairs and a sofa. Down side, the air con is controlled centrally, so no ability to regulate your own room. So, a bit of a mixed bag.

Fine, but could be better.

The location is fantastic.  You can easily walk all over downtown Halifax from here.  Staff is helpful and friendly.  The room was very clean but in **real** need of updating. The bed felt old.  The decor was "your grandma's who hasn't moved in 50 years."  Plugs were inconvenient.  The clock radio was made for some device that no  one has anymore.  The TV (which we didn't use) was about the size of a book. There is so much room for improvement in the room.  The breakfast is not included and they strictly enforce a requirement that you order the night before by 10:00.  It will set you back $15 Canadian and is nothing special.  Coffee' (available for free) s weak.  Still, all in all, if you want a great location in Halifax, it delivers.

Great location, Nice Staff, Needs Updating

The main building is indeed very historic and  elegant. The hotel clearly states no elevator but there are two flights if you are on the  second floor. We paid  an extra $15 each for a very generous continental breakfast in the dining room. Unfortunately on site restaurant was closed for dinner . We found the onsite parking problematic. Its limited ...first come first served. There is one loading zone space outside the main building where you check in. That was taken the day we arrived, so we had to double park while one of us ran in and got parking  directions. (down a side alley). Otherwise its paid parking on the street. Staff were terrific. Nothing too much bother. Room was very comfy and I did not find it too small at all. However the TV was very small for an upmarket hotel and really should be upgraded. We stayed  two nights in the old building, One night (midweek)  the noise from the pub next door was really loud. Other reviewers have commented on the potential for noise so you take your chances. The next night no problem. You could ask to stay further away from the noise in one of the timber buildings but I dont think it would be the same experience.

Elegant old main building, excellent service  but parking and noise problematic.

I would give this inn a 3+ if I could. Prettyfrom the outside, character on the inside, but furniture was a bit tired. Bed was comfy, though, and it was in a good location. Easy walk to Boardwalk and also to the Maritime Museum. Decent place for a one night stay.

Convenient location

Having looked at many reviews when planning our trip I wanted to say what I thought. 
A central hotel, close to the boardwalk in Halifax which is what I was looking for. 
It’s old and if this is what you are looking for then it has real character.  I cannot fault this. 
Lovely staff on reception too. 
However, which is what I should have realised, this would mean you will hear people above, people coming down your corridor and people coming up the stairs banging doors. This is not the hotels fault, you just need to be aware of this when you book. It’s old. 
Hope this helps when making your decision about where to stay.

Central hotel close to boardwalk, historic

Been trying to get to this inn downtown since before Covid so good opportunity with my husbands 70th bday .
It was so nice .beautiful historic inn with.a lovely back garden area which I’m sure  is nice in summer .close to everything, we walked to our restaurant on waterfront and our fav bar is just around corner .
Front desk people were helpful and pleasant .The beds ! What can I say , sooo comfortable ! Place was very clean as well .enjoyed our stay we will be back in the summer .

Wonderful 

This is a charming Inn. It is a heritage property so it has a front library room for morning coffee, carpeted stairs, and charm.  The front desk staff are very helpful. It is located within walking distance of the Halifax waterfront and attractions. We had a room with a queen-size bed, a traditional upholstered chair, dresser, tv, closet. The bathroom was immaculate. The shower had a rain setting and plenty of hot water. There are no elevators. All the rooms in our building were up stairs.  This may be a challenge if you have ambulation issues or heavy luggage. If you bring a car they have free parking for guests.

Charming , clean and convenient

Everyone reads reviews before they book a place to stay. And even the best places have a small percentage of bad reviews. The Halliburton is one of those places. One of the best in Halifax with a few bad reviews. Do yourself a favour. Don’t waste your time trying to figure out if there’s any merit to the bad reviews. There isn’t. Just understand : 

-they have 3 floors and you might have to carry your bags up an historical staircase. So pack lighter, Princess! :) 

-It’s a classic older building so there will be some creaky floor boards and the inside walls aren’t made of concrete like the sterile, corporate chains with zero personality. So if you’re a light sleeper, turn on the white noise app or bring ear plugs. (Although I didn’t find noise an issue at all. Party peeps don’t stay here!)

I’ve lived in 4 countries and been fortunate to have travelled all over this incredible world. So, to summarize, BOOK THE HALLIBURTON NOW. 
Class/Vibe/Comfort = 8.9
Location = 8.5
Staff = 9.7 
(Sorry, I just don’t give 10s) 

Like everywhere, it’s the people that can make or break a place. 

Isabelle - you gave me the warmest greeting and were incredibly accommodating. Phenomenal first impression. Better than most of the 5* locations I’ve wasted money on. Thank you. 

Sofia, if I was hiring I would figure out a way to clone you and hire all of you! Classy, engaging, professional, warm and authentic. So rare! You will make a difference on this planet. 

So, to whomever runs this place, treat these two well or you will loose two of your key assets! (If you’ve been wondering - yes, give them a raise.)

Im a pessimistic jerk and LOVED The Halliburton

Close to the wharf area where the restaurants and Maritime Museum are located. Nice room with excellent bed and pillows. Brick building pictured in the ads is the main building. There are two next door buildings, not connected to this one, that comprise the hotel. We were in one of those. Very steep stairs. Not for the infirm. Breakfast was extra and didn't amount to much. Had to select items from a limited list the night before. We passed.

Well located small historic hotel

The place has charm and the staff are helpful and welcoming. The location is good. Parking available. The room was nicely decorated. Drawback is a limited breakfast and no lifts. We were on the second floor and needed help with our luggage. So if you have an aversion to stairs this might not be the place for you.
