Book a West Halifax Cottage

"I stayed just for a night and it was the best hotel sleep I’ve had in ages. Check in was easy, staff were lovely, and parking was plentiful. "

"We very much enjoyed our night at theThe Porches Inn. Check-in was easy, the room was spacious, clean and comfortable. The shower was the best rainfall shower I have ever had and we even had a claw foot bathtub! The only drawback to our room was proximity to the main entrance door of the building which could hear opening and closing. We would have liked to use the exterior hot tub but it was not available due to pool renovations. We were able to enjoy the sauna and shower as an alternative. The breakfast was ample for a "continental buffet". Lastly, the free car charging was a life saver! I hope I have the opportunity to visit again."

"Plenty of parking Clean - no bugs Goes downhill from there. Front desk people were polite but far from friendly. Major renovations need to be done before I will come back. Windows did not lock, which my husband discovered as we were getting ready for bed. He decided that they were too small for anyone to crawl through, but not a comforting feeling. Pool - closes at 5pm on Sunday - we arrived at 5:10 😳 Hot tub - closed for cleaning on Monday until 1pm, but check out is at 11am So I have no idea what the condition is of either, but I cannot imagine that they are in great shape. I should have known that 2 pools and a hot tub for that price was too good to be true "

"Beautiful older hotel fully restored while maintaining its history and claim. Excellent staff. excellent restaurant. A memorable place to stay"

"If you love retro/vintage/history/ quiet and pet friendly this place is wonderful for a short stay and lowkey weekend. So many cool local businesses and delicious food. We went for a show at the stone church- walking distance from hotel! And everything we could have needed was easily accessible. They have a bar downstairs and a movie theatre in the hotel! All rooms have record players and vinyls to play with more available. Big rooms. “Dated” but it’s keeping with the retro style- very clean and neat. Only negatives were the parking lot (really small but we got a spot! There’s plenty of on street parking and a nearby parking garage as well). Staff was so friendly and helpful! This would be a great “staycation” or mom night away as well. Stop at some of the amazing thrift/vintage/2nd hand stores for books, music, clothes and more. If you’re a crafter, Bobbins’and Skeins and Beadnik are great places to take a look at. I’d definitely come back!"

"Nice"

"The rrooms were clean, shower was great. Hallways dark, parking lot not to much lighting. There is no breakfast just coffee."

"Quiet, peaceful, relaxing. Must travel about 15 miles to nearest town. All the basics in kitchen. Bring a few groceries and you won't need to leave your cabin at all."

"Great place for a one night stay to ski near by. Clean room and great pizza in the brewery. "
