Top Halifax and Southwestern Railway Museum Hotel Reviews

Travelodge by Wyndham Bridgewater

8/10 Good

"The room was large, bedding was clean, and the bed was very comfy. We were in a ground floor room, patio doors were extremely heavy and I could not even close one of them as it wouldn't slide. Walls were thin, we could here people talking in the room next door. It was an okay place to stay, I was happy the rooms were clean and the beds were comfortable."

Rum Runner Inn

8/10 Good

"The room is big with a nice view on the water front. It is very clean. The bed is extremely high but confortable. The location is perfect, close to everything. The only negative point is the bathroom. It really needs to be renovated, especially the toilet. It dors not flush easily."
