We were very happy with our stay at Red George Inn. The staff was extremely helpful with providing information on parking and arrival. The unit was clean and spacious and lived up to the description. With a living room, kitchen area and bedroom and 1&1/2 bathrooms. We slept well and felt secure. There are plenty of restaurants , shopping and sights just outside the door. I would recommend this accommodation and plan to stay again.

Excellent value for money! Self check-in smooth as silk. The managers very responsive and helpful by phone and text. Convenient parking included. Governor’s Suite is spacious and the bed very comfortable. Has the cozy feel of an old inn amid the excitement of a growing and vibrant downtown Halifax. Will stay again!

All great. Nice location close to downtown, yet still quiet. There's limited parking, but the street parking is open in the evening. Would definitely stay again There was a slight misunderstanding or malfunction with the key box, which was sorted fairly quickly.

The room we stayed in (# 6 Aft Castle)was smaller than I expected but it was clean and comfortable and was more than suitable for a one night stay in the city. Parking was convenient and we were within walking distance to restaurants/ downtown. We were minutes from our appointment and the owners were accessible and responsive. We are going to try another room with our next stay coming up shortly. It was reasonably priced and a great alternative to a hotel.

Excellent location, great for two individuals, easy parking and ownership team are very helpful. On top of that it’s half price compared to most hotels. Highly recommend but only downside is the port operates from 06:00 so if you are an early bird no issues, if you are not take some ear plugs. However, I wouldn’t let this put you off the quality for the price in Halifax and helpful owners make it well worth while.

Fantastic stay at the Red George Inn in their Aft Castle room. Cozy and full of character and complementing the historic charm of the property. It truly feels like stepping into a piece of local heritage while still enjoying all the comforts you need. Communication from the host was excellent from start to finish—clear, friendly, and helpful. A beautiful, thoughtfully run place in an unbeatable location. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again.

Riva

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Overall an ok stay. Super clean and charming, unbeatable location. Some details could make the experience 5 star. All doors are very squeaky, which was disruptive in the middle of the night. There is virtually no sound barrier between the room and hallway, so it feels like you can hear other people breathing through the walls. The bed was VERY low to the ground and mattress felt cheap and dated. A few improved details would really make this place a hidden gem.

A wonderful stay at the Red George Inn! The location is unbeatable—right near all the best restaurants and the waterfront. The space is full of character and charm, and the self check-in was incredibly convenient for our late arrival after dinner. It felt great to stay somewhere that felt so local and 100% locally-owned. Excellent value for a quick trip, friendly service, and a truly welcoming place to call home for the night while in the city. Especially loved the exposed beams in the traditional dormer overlooking the lieutenant Governors mansion. Extra special for myself as my grandfather was once the Lieutenant Governor of Nova Scotia, so it was really cool to stay in a room overlooking his former residence. Highly recommend!

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
Room was relatively small. Bathroom was clean and appealing except for some dust around the mirror casing. Rug in room appeared relatively clean except for some dirt around the door entry. Mouse traps were probably necessary but a bit unnerving! Self check in and check out was a surprise. Cold night so room was cold upon arrival and took some time to heat up especially the furniture. Pros: downtown location, free parking, microwave, kettle, drip coffee maker, toaster, glasses and cups in the room. I would give it a 3.5 rating if I could.
