“The location in downtown is a strong starting point, placing guests within easy reach of Halifax Harbour and other attractions. I appreciate the hotel's commitment to comfort, especially the Heavenly Beds, but I'm mostly compelled by the Seaport Social Restaurant, which emphasizes fresh, local fare. It's a well-rounded choice for both business and leisure, but its dedication to regional cuisine stands out.”
