Review from Hazel P.

What a great hotel! We stayed here a couple days before the start of a bus tour & after it as well. The rooms are nice & spacious, beds are comfortable & decor is modern. Location is great. You can walk to downtown Halifax in minutes. It's still relatively quiet even though the bars etc are a few streets down. When the staff at the front desk (Casey) found out one of the nights we'd be staying was our 1st year wedding anniversary he said he would see if he could give us a little upgrade. Another nice thing, their computers at the business centre have a fast internet connection! Love this hotel. Prices were better than other hotels in the city as well.

I've been or stayed at quite a few hotels in the city and this is my favourite so far! The rooms are quite spacious and the little kitchenettes are super convenient. The service we received was also above average - front desk staff and the maid service was really excellent. The location is also the best you can ask for. Not only are you walking distance to most places but you get a lovely view of either the harbour or the hill! It's also tucked away enough that it won't get too loud at night - despite its proximity to a few big bars.
15 minutes after checking in the person responsible for cleaning our rooms knocked on our door and asked us if there was anything we needed at all. When asked not to tuck in the sheets of the bed (George Costanza style) they had no problem accommodating. Every time we ran into a staff member we were met with a very friendly smile and nice conversation. No sour faces in the whole bunch! At one point we got a wake-up call (one that was not ordered) and after bringing it to the attention of the staff we were apologized to significantly.
My only qualm with the hotel was the breakfast. There was cereal, porridge, bread and bagels, hard boiled eggs and juice. There was some pretty weak coffee and a few selections of teas but with incredibly small cups. And their fruit selection was sub-par at best. It was less than steller - but North American continental breakfast buffets tend not to be the anything to write home about.
Last minute notes: there are the standard movies you can order from the rooms but they also have Nintendo games you can rent which is pretty interesting. Judging my the movie prices though I'd be slightly scared of the rental fees. -

Some friends from out of town were staying at the courtyard while visiting me one summer, and one was celebrating her 21st birthday. We pitched in to buy her a bike and the staff at the Cambridge Suites was very good about helping us keep it a secret from her until the big reveal. We even managed to coerce a friendly front desk worker to show up and sing happy birthday to my red-faced friend. Needless to say it was hilarious and we thanked him and the rest of the staff for going above and beyond in service.
The location and price were two great features about staying here. Double rooms are fairly priced and ours had a fridge and sink, with a balcony view. The accommodations have always been great when I've stayed at the Cambridge Suites; it certainly isn't the type of place you need to hide your valuables from room service staff.
Hot Hint: It's so close to the Halifax nightlife, which makes it a great place to book for a weekend out on the town. -

This is a really nice a hotel. The renovation is fairly recent and the furniture and decor is still fresh and new looking. The breakfast is included with the stay and it's pretty good. I stayed here with my parents before my graduation ceremony and was very comfortable on the pull-out couch. There were two large flat screen tvs in our suites and despite being only a block from the Ale House, it was nice and quiet. There is a special parking garage below the building for guests. I would stay here again.
