Fergusons Cove Vacation Packages

Our room was set at 30 degrees when we arrived, desk person suggested we turn heat down (we figured as much) sat in hallway for some time ( I had just had back surgery) I called back down saying we still couldn't use our room, same response. I asked for another room, she was unsure how she could do that. Long story I know but we moved to another roomand the morning staff were amazing. Big thank you for understanding our situation. We will be back!

Staff are great, but I’m not sure why this hotel had such high ratings from other guests. There is nothing wrong with the hotel (it’s totally fine), but it is not 5-star. Scratchy sheets, clean but not spotless. Gym is the access route to the pool so constant traffic through it. Again- the hotel is totally fine and the staff are really friendly, but it’s more like a holiday inn than a 4-5 star hotel.

The Halliburton is charming, cozy, quiet, and aesthetically pleasing in a period style. Its staff members are warm, professional, and helpful. Its location is ideal for walking down to the Harbourfront or downtown. The outside patio at the back looked inviting. On the flip side, I missed the detail about no elevator and hadn't expected so many (nicely carpeted) stairs. There are a few at the front door, a few more up to the lobby, 14 or so to reach the next floor; then there's a short hall walk and a few stairs to reach the bottom of the next flight of stairs, and 14 stairs up to the top floor. I'm grateful that an accommodating young woman carried my bag to my room when I arrived and a guest helped me carry my bag down the last flight of stairs when it was time to leave. I wished there'd been a small desk in the room. The windows are single-paned, which could be a problem in the winter. A notice says that cool air is vented into the room in summer. For my spring visit, raising the windows in the bathroom and bedroom cooled the room sufficiently. All that aside, I really liked The Halliburton. At my age, though, I'll book only hotels with an elevator!

Lovely place to stay. The renovated rooms are nicely updated. The staff are very pleasant and accommodating. Only two minor issues: 1) homeless in the neighbourhood can be intimidating as they will come up to the front (and inside) the hotel; 2) the restaurant could stay open for another hour for those who come in on a late flight or late event. Everything else was lovely

A little outside downtown Halifax but less expensive than downtown hotels.
