Top hotels in Fairmount
The Barrington Hotel
Booked this hotel room over March break to spend with my nephews who were really looking forward to swimming, unfortunately, the Barrington hotel doesn’t heat their pool and the water was absolutely frigid. We had two boys who were very disappointed.

The Lord Nelson Hotel & Suites
I stayed in the petite room and it was perfect for a one night stay. It was clean and had plenty of coffee and tea to enjoy.

HFX Airport Hotel
The pool is good, the rooms are clean, the air conditioner was very loud. Breakfast was alot to be desired. Sausage rounds that tasted like pepper, hard eggs, not what was advertised.
