Smiths Settlement Holidays from AU$3,053

Easy to find, great breakfast, quiet.

Great location, beautiful rooms.

Did a one night stay before we flew out, hotel was super clean, staff were welcoming. It was close to the airport. Would stay again!

My friend's statement about sums up this property: "For $350 a night, this is a bit janky." Let me prephace this review by saying that there is nothing objectively wrong with this hotel, but I wouldn't say that it is good value for money. For the $350 we paid a night, there were multiple electrical outlets in the room that only had one screw, or were otherwise loose/coming out of the wall. The wood plank ceiling had messy splotches of paint throughout and we noticed in our friend's room, that they actually left the painters tape around the top of the room. The shower took a long time to heat up and didn't stay warm for long in all of the rooms our party rented and the heat settings did not work in our room and it remained relatively cold (which wasn't the worst in our case, but still). In short, if this was a $180ish-$200 a night affair, then it wouldn't be too bad, but for the price they are charging, in the North End of Halifax, I would recommend you look elsewhere. You can only take the "rustic" boutique hotel theme so far, at a certain point it is all style, no substance.

As soon as I walk in, I realize I can eat off this floor right now. That's how clean this place is. And I was like, d*** this place. This place smells so good. Holy man, look how bougie this place is man. All the lights have dimmer switches. The view is amazing Love the hot tub, but the black flies were brutal. They'll get you.\n But had a wonderful stay and will be back. The black won't bother you after Like 9 or 10 o'clock. And iwas like damn look at the shower head that's crazy.
