I liked the convenience of walking to the Halifax wharf and the shops and restaurants there. The area was quiet, making it easy to sleep. I had a leak from a ceiling vent during my last night there. The housekeeping staff did not meet expectations. On one occasion they forgot to place fresh fruit in my room. On another, I ran out of tissues but a new box was not provided. Even when I put the empty box on the bed, the staff took the empty box but didn't provide a new one! Finally, I just took a new box out of the housekeeping cupboard. But these relatively small issues didn't detract from a good stay.

Charming B&B with Excellent Customer Service

Our stay at the Garden South Park Inn was excellent, due largely to the wonderful customer service! Every staff member was incredibly kind and helpful with wonderful recommendations and friendly conversation. The room was absolutely beautiful and the bed was incredibly comfortable. We found the location to be excellent as well. We took an Uber to the waterfront for under $10 CAD and also walked to Stillwell Beer Garden one evening. Breakfast was described as continental but I’d say it was more like ’continental plus’ because, beyond lovely muffins, bagels, toast, and cereals, they offered hard boiled eggs, deli meats, cheese and crackers, yogurt and fruit. The coffee was also delicious. One note is that parking is an extra charge and not guaranteed, so one night we parked on the street for under $10 CAD and the second night we parked in the lot for $15 CAD. (Yes, this was more but we didn’t have to be concerned about adding more money to the app or moving the car at a certain time.) Overall, an excellent stay in Halifax at the Garden South Park Inn! We would definitely recommend it.

What I loved best was socializing with other travelers in the parlour during the breakfast hours. Being from SC in the USA, we met people from all over the world. Be sure to engage others in conversation. The hotel is a great location for the beautiful Public Gardens,

Great location, very friendly staff at check in. I'm leaving early in the morning, before breakfast, and staff dropped off a breakfast to-go bag for me. My room is right at the front of the building, so it's a bit noisy with the front door, but that's to be expected with an older building like this. It's nice to stay in a place with some individual charm instead of a generic hotel room.

Not so great.

Not great. When we checked in they had given our room away to someone else. A cot was offered but we paid for 2 queen bed’s. Receptionist couldn’t get a hold of her manager so we had to wait to see if there even was an extra room. The girl even checked my license and gave me a paper with a man’s name on it to sign. We did end up getting a separate room no charge but it was quite a hassle. Also, nowhere did it say that you have to park on the street or in the hospital parking lot across the street so we were charged for parking out back.
