We stayed here for a week in August 2011. Overall it was good value for the price. The Hotel room was clean and the room was cleaned and towels were changed daily. Decor was dated but still ok. Great view of halifax harbour from the room we stayed in. The breakfest in the morning had plenty of options. Only issue... More

I chose this restaurant because I was able to get a large discount for an extended stay. The hotel is run down and definitely needs an upgrade. The parking lot is as bad as everyone reports. It is difficult to maneuver to get into and then the parking spots are tight fits requiring a lot of back and forth if... More

We stayed here because the Halifax side of the harbour seems to be overly expensive. There isn't much choice of accommodation in downtown Dartmouth; it's the Holiday Inn Express or the Super 8 and neither is going to get more than an "average" rating. They don't try to, they simply sell rooms fitted with the basics but are comfortable nonetheless.... More

I just stayed here 2 nights and was a bit concerned at first but that feeling did not last long. The location was perfect, the rooms were clean and the staff were great. Price was reasonable and have to say again the staff were great.

We stayed at the Super 8 Dartmouth, Nova Scotia for three nights. We chose Dartmouth because it was cheaper, and we were looking for some downtime from our travels rather than a location more centrally located in nearby Halifax. We had a hire car, but only used it one day during our stay to drive across one of the large... More

The condition of the hotel and the guest rooms was not very good. VERY old building and the rooms really need to be upgraded....very dark and dingy. However the gentleman on the front desk was very friendly and could not have been more helpful! The rooms on the harbor side have great views and there's a pub within walking distance... More

Instead of battling Halifax traffic to attend meetings at one of the big chain hotels, and having to pay very high rates to be in or close to the meeting site I decided to check out the Super 8. I was able to book a large room with 2 Queen size bed on line for less than half of what... More

This hotel is very close to the ferry to Halifax, the bridge to Halifax and to several good restaurants. The staff were helpful and the rooms are spacious. They let us store bags while we went on a trip to Cape Breton. I would stay there again.
