It is in a nice leafy part of Sheffield. Ecclesall Road is nearby and this street has lots of pubs and restaurants etc.
If you follow accommodation links from the above site you will get to the following accommodation guide for some suggestions in Sheffield:

if you check some of the hotels have deals if you mention you are attending a conference at The University of Sheffield. I think it is unlikely that any rooms are available in Halifax Hall itself as it is a residential college and it is still term time.
