It is very convenient for the Saturday morning farmers' market, the rail station, Spring Garden and the harbour boardwalk. Indeed, most of Halifax downtown is within walking distance but watch those hills.

The staff was very helpful and the room was great -- they had upgraded us before we even got there! I can't think of a single thing to complain about. The restaurant was expensive, but we did like the half-price appetizers for happy hour. I'll definitely stay there again.
