    It was a strong match for a brief retreat in Halifax with good value considering the price. The breakfast was very good, a nice surprise. Check out Hebden Bridge. it's worth a visit.

    friendly staff

    great central base for exploration and nearby parks

    We found the hotel to be a perfect starting point for our weekend strolls, as we loved being just a short walk from the beautiful People's Park and the fascinating Halifax Minster, which we visited multiple times during our stay.

    good location

    I had a good one-night stay. The staff made me feel welcomed and helped everything go smoothly. I found the location convenient for exploring the town. I parked easily at a nearby garage. My room was clean and comfortable, perfect for my needs. I really enjoyed my breakfast in the morning. I will return during my next visit to the area with my family.

    Room swap was good, but noisy nights

    We stayed for 2 nights and got a room near the lift, which was way too noisy. They were nice enough to switch us, but the new room was super hot since the window barely opened. The bins were emptied outside at 5 AM, waking us up for hours! The breakfast area was lovely though, with super friendly staff.

    The rooms boast a charming mix of grand features and contemporary decor, with newly redecorated interiors enhancing the experience. Breakfast offers a superb range, standing out with better choices than many higher-end hotels. A pleasant Italian restaurant on site adds a nice dining option.

    Noise from early morning bin collections might be a nuisance for light sleepers like me. A personal touch like bottled water in the room would elevate the experience, even though there's coffee and biscuits available. For those wanting to stay out late, expect some street noise as well. not ideal if you're looking for pristine quiet at night.

    extremely soft bed

    Had a great time with friends. We hit up the Halifax Ski & Snowboard Centre and Crow Nest Park Golf Club, both awesome. The location is perfect for exploring, and the service was friendly. Rooms are comfy and clean, making it a solid getaway option!

    The only downside was the bed, it was extremely soft, making it hard to get a good night's sleep.

    Our family had a fantastic stay at The White Swan Halifax! The staff were incredibly friendly, making us feel right at home. Our double room was spacious, clean, and comfortable for our little ones, and the location is perfect for exploring the town. Breakfast was a highlight, freshly cooked and delicious, just what we needed to start our day!

    A bit noisy at night.

    Delicious breakfast and great location

    I had a wonderful stay with the highlight being the delicious breakfast options which offered a freshly prepared full English breakfast with a range of choices. The location was perfect for exploring the town, with many attractions within walking distance. My room was clean and spacious, providing a cozy retreat after a long day of sightseeing. the noise from the street at night was a bit disruptive.

    Comfortable Stay, Bring Earplugs!

    The ambiance felt dated, but the staff truly stood out with their friendliness. Enjoyed dinner at Julio's Italian Restaurant, serving delicious Italian cuisine. A comfortable bed provided solace despite the noisy street. Future guests should prepare for late-night disturbances. earplugs are a must!
