Overall a very good stay
Overall my stay was excellent. The room was very comfortable and clean. Didn’t like the way the walk in robe closed behind you and the room went dark. Very annoying. The service overall for the majority of my stay was first class especially from the Concierge Lee and the bell hops. Restaurant service was good too. Pool and spa were excellent. My one complaint was that on my last night there was a party in the room next to me that went until nearly 1:30am. I rang “Express Service” only to be put on hold. I then rang again at 1:15am and the call was answered and the noise stopped. Other than this annoying blemish I had an excellent stay.

2/10 Poor

Had a double bed instead of a queen bed. Bathroom door would get stuck each time it was closed locking yourself in. They don’t notify you parking is a daily rate of $23. When you check in it just says parking is $23 but not per day.

Lovely hotel
This is a wonderful hotel. Staff is great, hotel is lovely. The only reason we didn't give it a 5 is because the rooms need to be renovated. The sink and bathroom tile were cracked and the carpet and bedding need an upgrade.

Hotel was very nice at the end of the Halifax waterfront. Staff were very courteous. Our room was a little bit small in an awkward corner, but that would be my only critique.

Great stay in Halifax Westin
There was some very noisy construction being done outside of our first room. We asked if we could switch and there was another room available - perfect! Nicer than our first room. The staff couldn’t have been more helpful. Loved our stay at the Westin in Halifax. Location, location, location!

Room had unusual smell. Walk-in closet door didn’t have a stopper and closed down automatically, shutting the light off. Check-in had long wait time.

This hotel did not disappoint. We had an excellent view of the harbor until our last day when a cruise ship docked at pier 21. The room was luxurious, warm and comfortable. Staff was amiable, helpful and smiled a lot. Definitely staying here when we return.

I found the location terrific but the hotel and room was a little run-down and dated. It didn’t have that attention to the small things that you usually find at Marriot Bonvoy hotels.
