I like that it's older in a great area but.. definitely needs upgrading! Gym was run down unclean and old. More cleanliness. Sauna in men's was not working. Maintenance guy walked through didn't look at anything. A bit of wiping and oiling " maintenance" would make things better. The rooms are old. Fridges freeze items in them no dial to adjust.

A short stay

Just a brief stay as my daughter had an appointment the following morning. We always choose the Barrington for its easy access to parking, food court, shopping, etc…. My daughter also loves the pool here. Although this time I would not allow her to go in the pool because of the murky water and the dirt around the outer edges of the pool. It was very disappointing as the pool is always what she looks forward to and to have to keep her out was upsetting. Hopefully next time we come it will be cleaner.

I loved this hotel, one of my fav stays in Halifax!! The rooms are quiet, and very traditional for a hotel which I really enjoyed. The pool and fitness centre was so clean and so convenient, the pools hours were also great, adults had access until 11 which I loved because I like to be able to swim at a hotel but also have time to be able to do so. The staff were very friendly and helpful, I would definitely stay again! Extra bonus the rates were affordable!

I booked for a late checkout as I was quite jet lagged from travelling. I had on my do not disturb sign and was woken up 3 times by cleaning staff and once by phone despite having arranged this. Clearly it was not communicated. When I mentioned this when checking out the front desk said nothing and just said « you can leave now. » I now have to drive on dangerously icy roads exhausted and work all evening. I do not feel rested by my hotel stay. It was clean and centrally located.

Perfect location.

There’s not a better location in Halifax for a weekend stay. It’s clean, comfortable, well-run and right in the heart of the city. It’s close to the waterfront, the casino if that’s your thing, and some great bars and restaurants.
