Four Points By Sheraton Halifax

We stayed at the Four Points Sheraton downtown. The rooms were nice and inviting. While there are more centrally located properties if you are a Starwood Hotels member you can stay at this property, at times for only 3,000 points and $ 30 a night. A deal for a town with pretty expensive hotels.

If you prefer staying out of town check out the newly opened Comfort Hotel at Bayers Lake. Incredible rooms and great service at a modest price. Breakfast is thrown in for free.

Unique Quality: Four Points Starwood was convenient and on the club floor the breakfast was o.k.

This hotel is in a wonderful location in Halifax , with the historic waterfront area only one block away. It is walking distance to some of Halifax's best restaurants
McKelvies
Bish
Hamatchi Steakhouse
D’Amaurizio
Salty’s

Friendlystaff and nice comfortable beds.

Unique Quality: indoor pool and fitness center

Often good specials available. like $134.00 for double room

Halifax International Airport (YHZ): Approximate driving time is 40 minutes and distance is 35 km (22 miles).

Well I didn't stay here so I can't say much about the hotel but in November 2007 I did attend some meetings there for work related to Aboriginal employment strategies so I can say a bit about the hotel.

It's connected to some great shopping and it's in a good central location in down town Halifax and just a hop to the harbour front. I would stay here in the future if I had to no problem.

The Four Points Sheraton is nicely located at downtown Halifax. Most attractions are within a 10 minutes walk and Spring Garden Road starts at the backside.

Breakfast is outside the hotel at the Club Niche and can be reached through the indoor Mall entrance on the 2nd floor backdoor.

There's a small refridgerator in the room; also there's an ice machine and a vending machine at each floor.

Half of the rooms look to an inner court with mock-up historical buildings overshadowed by the Aliant office building.

There is a hotel directory in the room added (you need that for the AC control),; also an electronic version is available at the default TV-channel, which some 50 more channels pre-programmed.

Rooms are spacious.

Unique Quality: Smoke free hotel
Free fast Internet (terminals in the lobby and both WiFi and cable in the rooms)
Big indoor parking

Directions: From the Airport take the shuttle bus (Airporter).

By car: I just follow the 102 highway till exit 0, followed by Bayers Rd, Connaught Av, Quinpool Rd, Bell rd, Sackville St and a right onto Hollis St.

I liked this place. I was in a wheel chair access room so it was very spacious (I'm not sure how spacious the average room is but it can't be too far off from the one I was in). The king sized bed was nice.

Unique Quality: There is a neat court yard that has trompe l'oeil murals.

Directions: Downtown

Unique Quality: It is on the water and very close to everywhere you will end up going on foot. The picture is a bit out of date - the casino has moved!
