I recently stayed at the Quality Hotel in Ottawa. The location is excellent. It is located right beside The Byward Market. We arrived on a sunny Saturday afternoon and the Market was teaming with people. It is one of the best spots in Ottawa for eating, drinking, shopping and people watching. If you west on Rideau St. about 15 minutes... More

I have been to this hotel twice- In September 2010 and again in September 2011. Ottawa is a small town, and if you need closeness to most of the business amenities, and still want the silence, this is a good place. Courteous staff who remembered my name a year after I had been there last, the hotel is serene even... More

This hotel is tired and needs a good refurb. The washroom in my room had chips in the tub and the vanity which were painted over, you can only paint doors so many times. The room was cleaned very well. You feel isolated in the parking garage and and I didn't see any cameras or Security call buttons. If you... More

Enjoyed our two-night stay here, hotel was within walking distance of Byward Market and Downtown Ottawa. Rooms are comfortable, could use a bit of updating but were an excellent value. Wifi at the hotel was great, found it really easy to connect to and fast as well! Very friendly staff. Only things to be aware of are a very ancient... More

This hotel features clean, well-equipped rooms with comfortable beds and a host of free services: newspaper, faxing and photocopying, wireless Internet. Parking was reasonably priced and the location was close to ByWard market and other Ottawa attractions. The neighbourhood does attract a few of the down-and-out type, but seemed totally safe. The staff were very friendly and helpful. I was... More
