Room5, bar5, restaurant5. See below for review. Great bar crew- Scott, maksym, saneth, and lovely lily. Restaurant - perfect food and service from Cammy, and Tracey. Our housekeeper Asmira was totally helpful! The general manager, Glenn Bowie conducts an orchestra of smooth staff performance.

Stayed here few times. Got a city view for a change this time. They got the sweetest Housekeeping & room service attendant, and attentive bellman ever. We’ve never needed to have our room cleaned btw, met them in the hallway, they were friendly. Perfect location to stroll around. Shops & restaurants within 5-15 mins walk, Point Pleasant Park within 25mins walk. Easy.

The Nova Scotia Westin is an excellent venue for business meetings and events. The buffet lunch was well received by the over 40 attendees at our event.

My wife and I have stayed at the The Westin Nova Scotian a few times and it just gets better with each visit. The staff are amazing, going out of their way to make sure everything is well and if there is anything they could do for us. I really need to start writing down the names of the staff we interact with like the young lady that checked us in. She was a true professional in doing here job. This was a Birthday (wife) and Anniversary weekend get away for us. The young lady asked what brought us to Halifax and we told here. To our surprise after returning from an outing, there were some goodies waiting for us in our room. Thanks for an amazing weekend!!

This hotel is right next to the train station and was booked as part of my trans-Canadian railroad adventure. I stayed for two nights. All staff provided great customer service. I returned late to the hotel and hungry, so I stopped in at the hotel restaurant. Upon the advice of the bartender, I had the fish chowder and it was excellent. The hotel is quite, but close to the waterfront and a grocery store.

Always feel so welcomed at the Westin. I received prompt service at the Front Desk and our valet (Luke) was very professional. Room was very clean and the view was amazing! Thank you for another great stay!

Hotel was convenient to heart of Halifax and train station. Made walking the Halifax boardwalk easy - with lots to see. The staff were helpful, especially Lee. He provided information on tours and things to do in Halifax. Highly recommend.
