About us

We’re thrilled to announce that transformative renovations are now underway at the Hotel Halifax. This extensive renovation will enhance everything from our guest rooms to public spaces, including the lobby and exterior, ensuring a luxurious experience for all our guests. The scope of the renovation does require a hotel closure from April 1 – June 30, 2025 while we complete the final phase. We are also excited to share that we will once again be a full-service Delta Hotel by Marriott by the end of 2025! We can’t wait to welcome you back through our historic doors, where you’ll be greeted by a stunning new lobby, the enticing aromas from our redesigned restaurant, and beautifully modern guest rooms. Get ready for an exceptional experience as we embark on this exciting journey together!
