The Barrington Hotel

Great location but the rooms are stuffy with non working air conditioning.The parking is not included in the price of the room.The staff we're not helpful with the exception of a man named Mario.For the price point you can definitely find a better room.Do better Barrington hotel.

You are in the middle of the pub and restaurant district. Life jazz and other music is quite common. Easy walk to the waterfront boardwalk with lots of little stores, restaurants and the ship Museum. I liked the little indoor pool and gym. Our room was clean and nicely done. The bathroom is more than adequate. There is no breakfast included, but a restaurant at street level. Staff was reserved, but friendly and helpful, when prompted.

The hotel looks great in the lobby but everywhere else is very outdatedThe rooms are very small for a family.The pool is very small. The parking lot is quiet the hike to get to the hotel so I suggest packing light.

Unfortunately when you book through Expedia they give you a dated room with a bad view.However the Tempo restaurant in the hotel is excellent. We had breakfast there and it was really good. Our server Lisa was amazing. She had us bent over laughing with her stories. We felt like we were in anInstagram reel. She was very uplifting and made our day.

We booked a 6 night stay here but had to check out early after the first night. The room was not clean, and the hotel was missing multiple of their advertised amenities. The rooms are stuffy with no ac or air flow to speak of. Our shower pipes made a horrible sound to the point where my partner couldn't use it. Maintenance said it was the pipes and front desk refused to move our room. The front desk then tried to lie and say it could be fixed the next day. You would need to remove part of the drywall to access the pipes. We decided it's not worth it to stay and not have a proper shower. Also, the parking is a decent walk, which would have been nice to know beforehand as my partner has mobility issues

I have stayed at the Barrington Hotel a couple of times now and have had a fine experience. The rooms are clean and a fair price and the staff have been always friendly.However, this past weekend (May 13-14) when I stayed I forgot my prescription glass and my book in the room. By the time I realized I had left these items I was already home (a 2 hour drive away). When I called the hotel to see if they had found my items and if they could return them to me I was placed on hold until the line was disconnected. When I called back a second time I was told by the costumer service representative that “she would handle it” and hung up on me with no warning or farewell.I called back the next day to check if they had found my items, I spoke to the same women who said they had not been found but she would check again and give me a call back. Again she hung up on me, this time without taking down my number to call me back.Later that day I called back for a fourth time and was connected with a different costumer service representative who took my information and descriptions of the items I left and filled out the lost and found form (something the other women had never even mentioned). She also informed me that I would should receive and email in the next 2-4 days if my items had been found.After hanging up the phone I immediately received an email saying my items were found (meaning they most likely had been found on Sunday when I first called/the day I checked out) and that I had to fill out a form on a third party website to get them mailed back to me. At the end of the form it said to contact the hotel to ensure my items were packaged and shipped out. So I called back a fifth time and was told that I had to speak to house keeping about getting my items shipped out but since they were done for the day I had to call back the next morning.The next morning rolls around and I call housekeeping only to be sent to voicemail. I left a voicemail with my information and details about why I was calling. I did not receive a call back. I called 3 more times leaving subsequent messages and never heard back from house keeping at all. In total I had to call the hotel 9 times.I finally receive my items via the mail today (which cost $40 to have shipped) and although I am happy to finally have my belongings back and I rather disappointed with how the whole situation was handled. This was something when handled probably took all of 5-10 minutes on the side of the hotel staff but it took 4 days for me to have a hotel staff help me and return my items to me.

Air conditioner was noisy so we couldn’t run it at night. Shower was out of shampoo and body wash. Pillows weren’t great. Credit card system wasn’t working and they wouldn’t take cash. Non-stop frustrations. Mattress was good. Won’t be back.

Pretty good but no heat in my room, sauna is closed.Room is nice; but i could not get a can opener. Now I’m hungry. Odd place as far as size and what’s open. The liquor stores all close at 5 on Sunday; or maybe earlier. Just seems some stuff is strategically outlandish, and that’s no system to damage your karma by contributing to then do something like have kids.. yeesh..

Great central place to stay when visiting Halifax. Waterfront is 5 minutes away, and the citadel a nice 10 minute walk up the hill! Rooms are of a good size, clean and well maintained. However, no safe, and I felt the room was very stuffy, windows don't open, and aircon wasn't working. Breakfast had good choices and polite staff. Recommended

The room was clean, although outdated, staff was friendly and the location was great. However, I left something valuable in my room. I realized it a couple hours after I checked out so it was well before anyone new had checked in. I called and informed them and they acted like they could care less. The manager even emailed me to say that they had determined no investigation was deemed necessary. It was very disappointing to realize that a staff member had pocketed my item and the management did not care to get it back for me. It wasn't a small item either so a check on their cameras could have easily determined who took it.
