  • Location: Rating of 5.0 out of 5

    "GREAT LOCATION- in the center of lots of activities." source Skoosh

    "The best quality of this hotel is the location. If your desire is to experience downtown Halifax, The Lord Nelson is located in the center of all downtown clubs, restaurants and shopping." source Orbitz

    "The hotel's location was very convenient to the public gardens, citadel, and old clock. It was definitely a long walk to the water front and the restaurants/shopping located there." source Hotels.com

    "Mid-city location means a bit farther from the waterfront than we'd expected (about 10 blocks UPHILL coming back) but on the other hand across the street from the Citadel and the Public Gardens so a bonus location for those interested in those sites." source Travelocity

    "The Lord Nelson has a great location and very nice accomodations." source Expedia

    "Ethernet DSL hook-up in room was just fine." source Travelocity

    "comfortable but small rooms, nice bar at the hotel, good stuff." source Expedia
