My flight to Halifax arrived late and so it was around 1 a.m. when I arrived at the hotel. It was raining and the property was dark. I went up to the door and a guard came up behind me to see why I was there. It seems the hotel is closed and gutted. It is to become a Holiday... more

For the past three Christmas seasons, we have stayed at the Howard Johnson, and I must say we were very happy with our experience. In Truro, there are few, if any hotels open for out-of-towners who prefer not imposing on relatives over the holiday season. The Howard Johnson proves to be most accommodating in that respect.

OK hotel, beds hard. Pool nice but small. Hotel wearing in apperance but they are trying to get it back cause theres a lot of constroction going on there. I had room 132, had a drive up door and it was good, but a little small. Will try the Best Western the next time in Truro. more

We happened to see a brochure with a picture of the hot... more

Very disappointing hotel, needs a great deal of modernisation, bathrooms very old and shabby, pool itself was fine but surroundings leave a bit to be desired. Restaurant was awful. more

Stayed in hotel 2 different nights this past week. 1st night was OK until 2 AM in morning. Other guest in lobby & outdoors making lot of noise. Called desk to complain & nothing was done.
