Recently stayed two nights and loved this hotel. I attended an event next door at the Roger’s Centre and it was so nice to have easy indoor access to the facility. Having the Rideau mall attached was also a bonus. Had a lovely view of Parliament Hill and was an easy walk to that area. Staff at the hotel was fabulous, and I was happy with the room as well.

Lovely hotel with great facilities and lovely staff. Good security and very handy for shopping at Rideau Centre . Unfortunately and not in the control of the hotel, the outside homeless community is very unpleasant and somewhat intimidating. A real shame.

Michele

Disliked: Cleanliness
The only downfall was the room was only cleaned upon arriving. The cleaner knocked on our door some time after lunch to replace towels. We had to ask to have the trash removed (ie: dirty diapers). The bathroom sink wasn’t wiped down- we had to wipe ourselves afterwards. We had hoped the beds could be made. The worst part was 3 different doorsteps in our hallway had leftover trays and trash from the morning still sitting there by end of day. We were perplexed how the cleaner walked by without picking it up. It sat there all morning, all afternoon, all evening. The hotel is more like a 3 star hotel. On a positive the front desk staff are welcoming and friendly.

The hotel’s location is excellent. Valet service was good. Pet friendly. Concierge and reception staff were welcoming. However it appears that one has to take luggage up to the room oneself. Rooms were clean. Only major issue was the towels. Raggedy—torn with holes in them.

Amazing location and superior hotel!

Amazing location, steps to the canal, we have been visiting Ottawa for annual skating for over 15 years, staying in downtown, first time to this hotel and it was by far the best place!!!! Path though to the mall, great hotel amenities, pool, hot tub, sauna. The breakfast was amazing (pics are attached) and the view from the room showed the canal. Highly recommend, nothing beats this place!

Direct access to Rideau Centre from hotel was great during cold February stay allowed family to enjoy shopping mall coat free directly from hotel. Breakfast Buffet was great too, good quality lots of choice’s. Proximity to the frozen canal skating and affordable skate rentals from hotel were great convenience.
