The hotel is located on the Halifax waterfront in Queen’s Marque, the city’s newest cultural district, and offers 109 guest rooms and suites that reflect the region’s character through bespoke furnishings, original Nova Scotia art, and expansive ocean views. Envisioned, developed, and operated by The Armour Group Limited, and designed by celebrated Nova Scotian firm MacKay-Lyons Sweetapple Architects, the hotel honours character, materiality, and heritage through the art of place-making. From local materials, including salt-and-pepper granite and sandstone, to Muntz metal, a copper alloy prominently used in shipbuilding, these elements provide an indelible sense of place, resulting in a design that simply could not exist anywhere else.Located on the first floor, Drift offers a modern interpretation of Atlantic Canadian cuisine, seamlessly blending the region’s culinary heritage with innovative new flavours. A true reflection of Nova Scotia hospitality, Drift is poised to become a destination in its own right. The warm and inviting space is designed to offer guests an immersive epicurean experience, with stunning views of both the harbour and the iconic Tidal Beacon art installation. Guests of the hotel also enjoy access to BKS, a hidden speakeasy reserved exclusively for them that offers a private retreat. This secret haven serves a curated selection of masterfully crafted cocktails and savory small plates, providing a truly unique dining experience. Opening onto an elevated waterfront terrace that juts out into the harbour, BKS offers breathtaking views of the city, making it the perfect spot for those seeking both privacy and unparalleled scenic beauty.
In addition to the multiple dining venues, the hotel also boasts a full wellness centre; a private yacht and motorboat program; and curated cultural experiences designed to reveal the soul of the region. Each experience is designed to immerse guests in the culture, craft, and character of Nova Scotia.
