Homewood Suites by Hilton Halifax-Downtown

Halifax


Tapping into the Airbnb trend, these multiroom studios and suites are ideal for families or long stays, with fully kitted-out kitchens and space to spare. Admittedly, they're fairly bland, but rates include daily breakfast, use of the pool and occasional guest socials. The location on the corner of a busy intersection isn't ideal.
