Our stay at Rideau Heights was just ok. Don’t expect much more than what you see on the pictures. As for breakfast, there’s only a couple of fruits, cereals and coffee. We ate breakfast at Steele’s a couple blocks away. I would recommend only if you have a busy schedule and you sleep there for one night.
