The Space:
Welcome to Ports on Portland, a unique boutique hotel experience situated on the edge of downtown Dartmouth. Our building features nine distinct and beautifully designed spaces, each curated by local artists to offer a truly memorable stay.

Swedish House is a bright and modern retreat located in Ports on Portland, right in the heart of downtown Dartmouth. This boutique hotel setup provides a unique, custom-tailored experience just steps away from award-winning restaurants and bars. With limited parking, we recommend using Uber or the nearby bus services for convenience. Enjoy the lively atmosphere of Halifax and the vibrant, cheerful ambiance of Swedish House, perfect for stays ranging from one to seven nights.

Our property is not your typical hotel. We offer a boutique setup that provides a unique, custom-tailored experience designed to make your stay as enjoyable as possible. Each unit within our building has been thoughtfully prepared to reflect a distinct theme and atmosphere, ensuring that every stay feels special and different.

Our zoning allows for short-term rentals, making it easy for you to stay for both quick trips and extended visits. We are continuously enhancing our amenities, such as transforming the rooftop area into a terrace for additional outdoor space.

The Neighborhood:
Come stay with us at Ports on Portland and enjoy a one-of-a-kind boutique experience in the heart of downtown Dartmouth. Whether you're here for a night out in the Bar District, a culinary adventure, or simply to soak up the vibrant atmosphere of Halifax, our unique spaces offer the perfect home base for your visit.

Located right at the Bar District, you'll find yourself just a 30-second walk from some of the best award-winning restaurants and bars in the country. This vibrant area is perfect for those looking to explore the rich cultural scene and dynamic nightlife of Halifax. While parking is limited, the convenience of Uber and nearby bus services makes getting around easy. Embrace the charm of Halifax and discover the city's attractions just a short distance from our doorstep.

Getting Around:
Due to our central location and limited parking, we recommend using Uber or the nearby bus services for your transportation needs. This allows you to easily navigate the city and enjoy all the local hotspots without the hassle of finding parking.

Please note that this is a lively downtown area. It’s not the place for those seeking a quiet retreat. You may hear people walking by at night from the nearby bars, and there may occasionally be homeless individuals passing by. However, there are no encampments nearby. Our building is old and, despite extensive renovations, the walls are still thin, so sound can travel.

There was nothing to dislike about this property. Easily accessible, many dining options around, the ferry and bus stops are nearby and the area looks nice enough to take an easy stroll.
