I have stayed at The Westin Nova Scotian several times before and have always had a good experience. It is a nice efficient hotel that is spacious and has a good ambience, though I don’t find that it has any particular character or wow factor. That said, if I landed this hotel on an anonymous Hotwire deal I would definitely... More

“Good Westin property”

“Great service, very clean, room a bit small”

We booked two rooms and arrived early and the staff were very accommodatig regarding early check in, unfortunately because of early check in, one of the rooms was sort of pokey and in the bathroom the vanity counter made it difficult to reach in and adjust the shower flow and temp. But other than that our stay was a good... More

“Great getaway weekend!”

My family and I stayed at the Westin for a weekend getaway, 2 rooms. The rooms were clean and beds very comfortable. We had a room facing the water so it was wonderful to be able to open the window and have the breeze, loved the smell of the water. A bonus was having Yuk Yuks in the same building.... More

“Outstanding Front Desk Staff”

Reviewed April 21, 2013

We stayed at the Westin Nova Scotian from 13-21 April 2013 because of location. When we arrived, the hotel was full and we were given a very small and unappealing room in need of renovation, specially blinds that worked. As we were staying for a week, we spoke to Emma at the front desk and she was outstanding. She was... More

“Good Central Location, Large Hotel”

Stayed over here on business on first visit to Halifax. Good central location. Good views over the waterfront and the cruise ships. Good central base of operations and for going out in the evening. Rooms a little dated and not a huge amount of character but comfortable enough. Friendly staff. I would stay there again on business.

Thank you for taking the time to write a review on your visit last fall. Our history and location is what differentiates us from other downtown hotels, and we're delighted to hear that you enjoyed your first visit to Halifax. We look forward to welcoming you back when you return to our port city. Regards, Guido Kerpel More
