Halifax Hotels

Halifax in Nova Scotia in Canada was once the largest city on the country's Atlantic coast. Although it no longer holds that title, holidays in Halifax are a popular way of seeing some of the urban side as well as the wilderness in Canada. Hotels in Halifax offer something for everyone, whether you want riverfront chic or an easy way to get to the nearby state parks.

Choosing a Halifax hotel

There are a wide choice of hotels in Halifax with most of the big brands in high-class as well as budget hotels represented. There are also plenty of independent hotels in Halifax if you want something a little quirkier. You can find historic properties, chic new builds and everything in between. Since the city is quite large, it's worth thinking about what you want to do when you're there and planning the location of your cheap Halifax hotel accordingly, as well as booking Halifax car hire to help you get around.

When to visit

With cold winters and warm summers, most visitors tend to visit during the milder months, but Halifax becomes quite magical in the cold, particularly near Christmas. If you visit in August, there is an annual festival of buskers along the waterfront, and less regularly there are gatherings of historic ships too.
