Stayed at this hotel with a few of my friends in a big group at the end of April. Location is good and the hotel is clean, and location is awesome!!

Couldn't really recommend this hotel. We stayed for one night and that was enough. Breakfast was included (we were on a coach trip) but it was very basic and crowded because there was also a school trip staying there. It was like a rugby scrum. We were on the 16 floor: only 2 elevators and someone thought it was funny... More

I stayed here for 3 nights in May for business. I was upgraded to a business-level room (higher floor, has a microwave/mini fridge). I found it pretty quiet in the room, even though there seemed to be a few large student groups staying there at the same time. The bed was really comfortable and there was a pullout couch with...

We picked this hotel through reviews here. Was a little worried because pets are allowed here and the last thing we need is not have a good sleep because of dogs barking, cats meowing etc. Infront of the hotel is an LCBO so we were worried about drunks milling around. I am happy to say NONE of those happened. It... More

Rooms are spacious and average. The bathroom is not the best but it's clean. I consider it a bit pricey for the amenitites they have. Breakfast is not even available. It's a place to stay for the night, perfect for those who really would spend the entire day touring Ottawa. It's walking distance to the tourist spots, the byward market,... More
