We were fortunate enough to get the penthouse, which was beautiful. We enjoyed the massive jetted tub right in our own room, which was so spacious and comfortable. The only thing that could be improved was the breakfast, but would stay here again!

Very accommodating hosts! Beautiful home and breakfast was lovely.
Depending on who you're staying with, the set up in the sunrise suite is a little odd with the open washroom, probably best for someone staying on their own.

The hot tub was lovely. There was no continental breakfast out like they said in the description. The AC did not work in our room so it was quite hot. Also based on the layout of the house all the light from the kitchen poured into our room at night even with the blinds down. We were able to shut off the kitchen light but other guests kept turning it back on.

The hot tub in the Penthouse leaks. The batteries in the remotes to control the blinds were dying. Bed was comfy and the sauna was nice. The shower knob needs replacing.

Residential, quiet location. Property in general was in great condition. Felt a bit like a boutique hostel. 3 rooms with shared space like kitchen, lounge and outside amenities. We didn't make use of any of them, so can't comment on them.
Our room was clean and fine (could have used a second bedside table though). Comfy mattress. We didn't use the balcony as it was too cold, but I'm sure nice to have in summer. Bathroom was just next to the room - although I kept being worried other people would use it and walk in (as the next room had a random in-room toilet). Bathroom was nice, but with some quirks: bit of a weirdly high toilet and nowhere to hang towels when in the shower. Also the big washer-dryer were in there.
We didn't see any staff, so we didn't fully appreciate all the property amenities or understand everything. We didn't understand breakfast either and there was nothing there and no one said anything. So we left and went to Timmies.
Overall it was fine for 1 night.

The building itself was lovely, and the decor was beautiful. We stayed in the Sunrise suite and were surprised at JUST how how open the door plan was - there was no partition whatsoever between bedroom and bathroom, and had a full view of toilet and shower from our bed. This would be a lovely room for a single person, but an awkward setup for two people, as there was no privacy for bathroom use.
The kitchen and shared space was comfortable and beautifully designed with lots of plants and eclectic decor. The continental breakfast and plate of complimentary snacks throughout the day was great, but there was only enough coffee for 2 people (2 coffee pods, despite having 6 people booked in while we were there), which led us to spending less time at the hotel than planned.
We also had issues with the air conditioner, which was broken. When we notified the staff, no offer to look at and/or attempt to fix the unit was made, and we were advised to use a fan provided in the room. Unfortunately, the fan was dusty and very noisy, and did little to decrease the heat of the room.
Overall, the stay was alright, but increased privacy

This was one of the coolest stays on our honeymoon roadtrip. You really can’t beat it if you’re staying in Halifax. We stayed in the penthouse suite and had a personal hot tub, sauna, double balcony, and breakfast delivered to the room each morning. Beautiful, modern, clean, and affordable for what you get. We highly recommend dinner at Bar Kismet nearby.

The property is ok and we had a quiet night. It is however advised to make it practical to access the main entrance which has a cumbersome access procedure. We were assisted by the staff.

Beautiful spot, found it strange no TV in room
but the facilities and amenities (hot tub, sauna) was amazing feature.
Unfortunately I was there for work so with breakfast being late, I was unable to have any.

I stayed a year ago and it was 10/10. This time was not good. There are main doors broken, there use to be a hostess to tell you where to go and where things, there no longer is. All the doors were open when we got there to everyone’s “private” rooms. The hottub was so gross I found so much hair in it, and it smelled so musty I don’t know the last time it was cleaned. It’s sooo dirty, every counter in the shared areas, and my side table in my room. There was supposed to be a breakfast which we never got, there was no one there, just the three guests and that didn’t make me feel good; I liked the hostess for an extra level of safety. I will not be back. The difference of service from this time and last time is night and day.

This hotel promised a lot but was a bit disappointing. All the doors, inside and out, were difficult to open, or broken, the bathroom was also home to the boiler at head-hitting height, and the washer / dryer. There was no where to place your clothes in the bathroom. The towels had not been laundered properly and smelt funky. The complimentary coffee bar only supplied one coffee at breakfast. The walls and ceiling were thin and we were woken at 3:30 am by loud noises from the room above.
Positives were, the bed was surprisingly comfy for a simple metal frame bed, the location was quiet and suburban and they did make efforts to accommodate our gluten intolerance. The one cup of coffee we got was very nice too!

I recently stayed at The Halifax Rooftop Home and can see the vision behind the space. It’s modern, amenity‑focused, and visually impressive. The hot tub, steam shower, decor, and overall futuristic design were standout features, and the space is surprisingly large for a penthouse-style room.
However, several comfort and practicality issues affected the stay. The biggest problem was the bed. The memory foam mattress sank so deeply that it felt like a king‑size cot on a loose, squeaky metal frame. By morning, my back and hips were sore.
The room has a lot of built‑in tech, but the instructions weren’t clear. We spent a lot of time figuring out the blinds, remotes, and other systems. The hot tub was great once running, but the only water source is a slow waterfall-style shower head. The sauna warmed slightly but never reached a true sauna temperature.
A few basics were missing: only one garbage can, no tissues, and a sign asking guests to use makeup wipes even though none were provided. The toilet is mounted unusually high. Checkout is listed as 10am, though the owner was gracious in allowing us to stay until 11am.
The hot tub, steam shower, decor, fireplace heating, and storage were genuinely enjoyable, but clearer instructions and a better bed would make this a much stronger stay.

Read the REVIEWS!
Our review is based on a four night stay. This property has the potential to be a 5 Star property. However, the lack of attention to detail, cleanliness and service downgrade it significantly. If you rent the Penthouse, be aware you will have to carry up your luggage. There are two flights of stairs to enter the building and another two to reach the Penthouse. This is not made clear in the description. One of the Hosts was kind enough to carry our bags for us (maybe because of our age). The breakfasts were meagre and some of the fare was outdated. The Penthouse could use a couple of small garbage cans, A TV, a writing desk and chair and MOST OF ALL A NEW BED!! It's an old memory foam that has lost it's memory completely. We slept in deep canals with great discomfort. The doors to the balconies off the Penthouse don't lock and the balconies weren't clean. On the positive side they offer two charging stations for EV's and it is a great location. Until the many negative comments we and others have made in previous reviews are corrected, WE WILL NEVER STAY THERE AGAIN.
