This is a bog standard business/tour group hotel which does everything at that level and for a short stay, is perfectly reasonable. The location is excellent within a short walk of the harbourfront area and the airport transportation also stops here.

Didn't know what to expect but was very pleased with the Delta Halifax.
The front desk staff were all nice. Actually, all the staff I came across were nice in the building.
We had two rooms for our group and both were excellent. They either had a private balcony or opened onto the inner courtyard patio.
There is a pool/whirlpool area but I didn't use it. Looked decent from the window I peaked in though. There is also a fitness room available and there are licensed massage therapists with their own office in the hotel.

I didn't eat at the hotel but there was a classy looking bar just off the lobby and a nice restaurant too.
The hotel is connected by pedways to many other properties like the casino, World Trade Centre and Halifax Metro Centre. We were there for the Daniel O'Donnell concert(I later saw some of his assistants there so I think he was staying there too) and it was easy to walk to the Metro Centre, probably a ten minute walk. Even walking back at midnight after the show was alright as we could use the pedway system.
The rooms themselves were clean and well appointed. Some things did look a tad worn but it was very minimal. It didn't detract from the room much as it was very clean and neat. The bathroom was a good size and had a nice selection of soaps/shampoos/creams etc. I think I will be ordering some of these...mmmm cranberry.

There were white terry robes for our use, wine glasses, cork screw, coffee maker and selection of teas/coffees. There were ceramic mugs but also take out type cups with lids so you could take your coffee with you as you leave.
We also had the Globe and Mail newspaper delivered to our door in the morning.
There was Internet available to hook up too. I belive it was $9 a day. There was also some sort of Internet to surf on on the TV but I didn't use that feature. Not sure if there was a fee for that.
The hotel itself was decorated in nice deep colours and mahogany wood panels with brass accents. Made for a nice warm feeling. It was also very quiet, laid back feeling.

My only issue would be that if you're in a wheel chair, as one in our group was you may have a problem getting to some of the rooms. There are ramps but they are VERY VERY steep and at the end of the ramps there is a door to lead to the rooms. The door was heavy and there was no button to automatically open in. Neither was there much room to manoever a wheel chair as the door opens.
There may be special wheel chair rooms, I'm not sure. It was just a last minute thing that one in our group had to use a wheel chair so we figured we'd just take our rooms as they were and didn't inquire about wheel chair accessibility.

There is underground parking which cost us around $13.00. There is valet parking as well but I'm not sure of the cost. The parking is shared with Scotia Square mall and some office towers. The hotel will give you a cheaper rate for parking than the $15 a day that normally is charged.
It's not confusing to get from the parking to the hotel as other reviewers said. You just follow the signs to the elevator and in three minutes you're in the lobby of the hotel.
We will definitely stay at this hotel again when we are in Halifax!

This was one of the many host hotels for the 2006 Juno awards and I have to say that I think they did a pretty good job at dealing with us.

It's well known that the music biz is not the easiest group to deal with, especially when it comes to gathering us all together in one hotel, but the staff were more than welcoming.

The hotel itself is a bit old and the bedspreads are not much of a step up from throws you could pick up at Wal-Mart, but given that Halifax is a relatively small city I guess you can't expect much more for the price.

The hotel food is alright, but there is a strange smell coming from a room near the elevators (grease from the kitchen?).

The hotel is actually located in a mini shopping mall which is convenient for morning coffee and various necessities (drug / convenience store, etc).

A warning for first time visitors to Halifax... no starbucks! ((shudder)).

This is Halifax's best hotel, in my opnion. I got a no tax package for $154.00 which included a standard room, breakfast and parking. The parking was good. You did have to go down one elevator from the car park to get to the lobby. It was not confusing like previous reviews said. The room was nice, it was on the 5'th floor and had a good view of the harbour and a office building. The pool was small and very crowded, it was March Break though, lots of kids. I only had breakfast at the hotel, and it was very good. I had the buffet. The only complaint i have is that the lady when i checked in was very rude, i think her name was "Tina", not sure though. I found this a really good hotel and i think other people will enjoy it here too.

PS: Look at the pics.
