The Barrington Hotel

8/10 Good
"This is an older hotel, and does have some very, superficial, signs of wear. Many moons ago, it was part of the Delta chain so has been very well maintained. Room was large, and don't get me started on how comfortable the bed is, I wanted to take it home! Not a major deal...and I would certainly stay here again! My only 'real' negative is there's no on-site parking. It's not far away, in the Scotia Square mall, and having my ticket validated wasn't a huge deal. I think it was more having forgotten about driving in Halifax (more than a few years since I drove in that city) especially on a night on a hockey game. The hotel is extremely centrally located so driving wasn't a deal-breaker, and Halifax transit gets to most parts of the city in good time."
