Very good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
We enjoyed our time at the hotel, and can recommend it to another traveler. There were some minor issues at check in and with our room and the hotel management was very quick and diligent to be sure all the problems were corrected. We wish the issues never occurred but the hotels response was excellent. Most of the staff deserved 5 stars

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Very loud air conditioning. Will go on every 30 minutes, so can wake you up at night..
I was promised a parking spot for the car coming in less than 2 hours for my spouse. I checked with the front desk staff a second time, maybe a half hour later and was told again that he is to go to front desk and they would direct him to this location. When he arrived, the staff told him they had no recollection and no spots available.
Great location! We walked to Parliament Hill, ByWard Market, and even the Canadian War Museum! Very pleasant and professional front desk staff. We really enjoyed our stay in Ottawa.
The room was smaller than I expected yet functional. It was clean and quiet though. The underground parking was very dusty and dingy. Access is controlled by a small, unmarked number pad at the top of the approach. They should not mention it when they give you the garage code. I drove down a steep embankment to the garage door and had to back up, not safe.
