• Nothing.
• Run down, poor overall condition.

“Hotel is very rundown over all cleanliness and appearance was very poor. The star rating should be the sane as a run down highway motel.”

• It had heat and a roof.
• Lamp didn't work, no hot water in sink, bathtub filled with water while showering.

“To rate The Citadel Hotel 3 1/2 stars is a joke. The hotel is old and is in desperate need of renovation. To not even be able to wash your hands with warm water, is a complete disgrace. I would seriously consider lowering the rating.”

• Its location.
• The rooms have not been updated in 15 years and we found bed sheets with burn holes in them.

“This hotel should not be rated any higher than a one star rating. The front desk staff was not helpful at all. The beds have burn holes in the sheets and the bathrooms are in need of a major renovation. I will not be returning or recommending this hotel.”

• Great location.
• Small gift shop.

“Hotel had a great location near the citadel and close enough to walk to the harbor area shops and casino. The room was nice and clean, not much of a view on the street side but we could see the water at an angle out of the window. Would stay there again.”

• Friendly staff-good service-good location.
• Restaurant seemed small and cramped-but help more than made up for it.

“High speed internet worked great, staff was friendly and helpful. I really liked that I was downtown but near the bridge too so I could come and go from the city easily.”

• Hallways dingy, dark, smelled of old smoke, poor air quality in room, stained carpets in room, dark material sprayed over ceiling, poor.

“Very disappointed, only stayed one night, couldn't wait to get out of there, poor air quality, dingy, old, smelled of old stale smoke, awful. Had out of town guest with me, could not return for second night that was booked.”

• I did not have a good experience at all here and would not like to stay in this hotel ever again.
• They were not organized at all.

“I had booked an additional night in the hotel. I stayed there for 3 nights when I checked in she said that I can keep the same room for the three nights I had asked specifically for a Queen bed. She said that she will make sure that I will get a Queen bed”

• Very shabby place but nice people
• It's desperately in need of an upgrade just to get to a decent 2 star.

“2nd disappointment in past couple weeks, star ratings are not matching what's delivered.”

• The staff, especially housekeeping, were helpful and friendly.
• Never enough staff at the front desk, long waits.

“Located a 5 minute walk from the Halifax Citadel National Historic Site the Halifax Citadel Hotel is an older renovated hotel that is very adequate. Our rooms were a generous size and seemed to have been recently renovated. Bathrooms however are very small. The indoor pool and gym were being renovated during our visit in July, 2007.”
