It's also connects to the ped-walk which connects to the mall where there is a pharmacy if needed. Downtown shops and restaurants are also within walking distance.

"My husband and I were visiting Halifax for the first time, and this was a very good choice for exploring some of the city’s best known sites — the harbor front and its museums, the Citadel, and many bars and restaurants — conveniently on foot. Parking is not easy to come by in this area, so having dedicated parking at the hotel, even though you pay for it, was a big plus. This is a standard business-type hotel property in reasonably updated condition. Our beds were very comfortable. Front desk...

Nova Scotia Hotel Guide

Nova Scotia's culture, coastline, and scenic beauty are the heart of the area's tourism industry. Cape Breton’s Skyline Trail and trails on the Bay of Fundy are two of the top destinations for adventure seekers that can be enjoyed while staying at Nova Scotia hotels and inns.

With world-class hotels in Nova Scotia along with historic inns, charming bed and breakfasts, and family-friendly resorts, you would hardly guess that this is the second-smallest of Canada's provinces. Despite this fact, you can find different Nova Scotia vacations offering everything from art and history museums to RV parks and scenic campgrounds.

Due to an influx of warm weather from the Gulf, summers in the northern region typically last from early April through late October. Consequently, Nova Scotia hotel packages in this area often include transportation to local shopping and dining districts. Feel free to add any of the many local festivals in this region to your list of things to do in Nova Scotia. Look for discount packages during the off-season from early November through late March.

Sandy beaches make Nova Scotia hotel deals especially appealing along the coastline where guests can take surfing lessons or leisurely stroll the beaches before visiting local eateries. Many rooms offering attractive rates can be found within walking distance of popular beaches including Martinique Beach and Clam Harbour Beach, which is home to an annual sandcastle competition. If you plant to visit Risser’s Beach, book early since bordering campground sites tend to fill up quickly.

Peggy’s Cove Lighthouse is just one of more than 150 historic lighthouses found throughout Nova Scotia. A cheap Nova Scotia hotel deal around any of these historic sites isn't likely to be that far from seafood restaurants and wharf-side bistros serving up fresh shrimp, lobster, and other aquatic delights at reasonable prices. Make your visit to Nova Scotia a little more special with a tour of any of the award-winning wineries found throughout the province.

Pack your party clothes if you are looking to explore exciting nightlight with modern clubs and friendly neighbourhood pubs; cheap hotel deals in Nova Scotia in and around Halifax are waiting for you. Make early reservations at area restaurants and theatres if you are looking to sample regional food and local culture.
