One waterfront casino hotel in Halifax, well placed for a city break rather than a gaming trip.
Nova Scotia has two casinos, one of which comes with a hotel and sits directly on the Halifax waterfront. The gaming floor is modest by national standards, but the location is the point: you are on the boardwalk, a short walk from the best restaurant strip in Atlantic Canada.
Visitors treating this as a gaming destination will find the floor small. Visitors treating Halifax as the destination and the casino hotel as a convenient, well-located place to stay will get much more out of it.

A well-programmed 1,000-seat theatre attached to a comfortable suburban gaming floor, thirty minutes east of downtown Vancouver on the SkyTrain.
Langley / No. 13 nationally
A 178-room hotel, a convention centre and a busy local gaming floor in the middle of Langley — the Fraser Valley's only complete casino hotel.

Waterfront location on the boardwalk, ten minutes on foot from the Citadel and the main downtown restaurants.
