"The Atlantica Hotel was perfectly located for us to easily walk to and along the waterfront area, an area which offered a variety of places to shop and many restaurants to dine at or simply stop in for a drink while enjoying the view. Also nearby, we visited The Halifax and enjoyed walking through the Public Gardens (a must see! when you visit the city). We enjoyed a dinner and breakfast at the restaurant located in the hotel. Both were delicious and the staff couldn't be nicer or more...
