The Hollis Halifax a DoubleTree Suites by Hilton Hotel

Breakfast was a real highlight. We booked the breakfast package and were glad we did. It was made to order and delicious, and the chef kindly swapped the buttermilk pancakes for chocolate chip ones for my child. The server working around 7:30 a.m. on January 2nd 2026 was warm and attentive, though sadly I didn't get their name. That service made us feel welcome in a way we haven't often experienced in Canada. We stayed three nights at The Hollis Halifax Downtown, and the location was great, about a two-minute walk to the harbourfront. Restaurants were all walkable. For parking, there was a covered garage about five minutes away, weekend street parking that fills quickly, and a paid open lot visible from our room. Wit at the front desk greeted us warmly, was professional and kind, and accommodated our room request. The luggage trolleys were especially useful with a child and several bags, and staff helped return them at check-in and checkout. Our two-queen suite was clean, roomy, and had what we needed: a large closet, safe, coffee machine, microwave, mini fridge, and comfortable seating. The beds and pillows were very comfortable, with several pillow options, including some firmer ones. Housekeeping made the beds and cleaned the bathroom daily. We were told full linen changes are every four nights, which seemed reasonable. The heating worked well in room 808, Wi-Fi was reliable, and app requests for dental kits and extra sheets were handled quickly. Even small details, like a night light in the washroom, were taken care of. The Hilton Honors app worked well for in-room requests, as it has at other Hilton properties we've visited. A great Halifax stay with friendly staff, comfortable rooms, and a very good breakfast. I'd recommend it, and found the app useful for quick requests.
