Review from Krista P.
Halifax, NS
Updated - 10/2/2011
Now that it has been a full week since the wedding and I have (more or less) stopped bouncing around and blathering like a crazy person about HOWEXCITEDIAMTOBEMARRIEDTOMYSWEETIEOHMYGOD!!!!, I am relatively calm enough to begin this update with only minimal outbursts of crazy. So here we go.
I'm giving the Ramada an extra star because, well, the wedding day was just that fabulous. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful with us and the guests, and they were right on top of things the entire time.
It poured with rain (which I'm told is good luck on your wedding day, incidently.) and we thought we might not be able to get any outside photos taken. However, they have a little garden area in the parking lot that's covered by an awning, so we still managed to get some great shots! And when another wedding party's two limos pulled up beside us, we may also have co-opted those as a background for pictures, but that's another story!
At the reception our guests could not stop raving about the food in particular (we had a buffett), many saying it was the best tasting food they had ever had at a wedding.
As I mentioned in a previous review, the price for all of this was fantastic as well. We paid just over $2700 for everything, the food, bar service, two separate conference rooms for the ceremony and the reception, etc. They even threw in the presidential suite for the night, which was breathtaking, and at least 3 times the size of our apartment (what? I'm easily impressed...).
To top the evening off with a really nice touch, when we got up to the room at the end of the night there was a bottle of sparkling wine and a large plate of chocolate-dipped strawberries waiting for us. Not too shabby.

Ahem...er, yes. Fabulous, awesome, couldn'-have-been-better experience. I would absolutely recommend the Ramada to anyone looking for a venue for their upcoming nuptials. And with that, I think I'm going to go now before I have any more random outbursts about how WONDERFULLYAWESOMEANDSPECTACULARTHEDAYWAS. Oh god, I can't make it stop...Listed in: 30 Days of Yelp!, Down the Aisle..., Should I Stay or Should I Go?

The staff is incredible. Happy and joyful even at 3am, when your the only other soul in the lobby. It's a pretty good hotel if your in the city for one night, and you don't mind that you are in the middle of an industrial park.
It's a good hotel to stay at when your in Halifax on business for one day, but, if you plan to stay longer and enjoy the city ... this might not be the right place for you. '
All in all, mah.
