We enjoyed the hotel location: close to the airport and downtown Halifax but on a very nice lake, so we decided to bookend our vacation with stays here for our Atlantic holiday. Our stay was enjoyable but they are understaffed and facilities could use an update. Overall, a good stay.

When we arrived the receptionist was surly not helpful. Insisted I’d only booked and paid for 1 room when I’d booked and paid for 2. No apology other than the name was spelt incorrectly. Didn’t explain about restaurant times and what was on offer very disappointing

My husband and I stayed at Inn on the Lake for 5 nights on our recent trip to Halifax. The staff were all extremely friendly and our room was spacious. The restaurant on site was great too, offering many options and the ability to not go out after a long day! We liked being able to sit out by the water and relax - so peaceful and quiet. We would definitely stay there again.
