Very nice room(s) with comfy beds and pillows and the code to get in and out was very convenient. We made good use of the full kitchen and the location was very convenient to walk to major sites of Ottawa.
Christopher, 7-night trip

8/10 Very good

Location was awesome, it’s just behind the Lord Elgin so your literally a 5 minute walk to parliament. There is parking under the hotel although the garage is now owned by the hotel there is an elevator that takes you up to hotel lobby, it’s a little concealed so save yourself time ask front desk to show you were to get in. The staff are so helpful we arrived at 10am not expecting at all to be able to check in, we was just going to leave our luggage in the car but the front desk said no let’s see if we can get you into a room right away, which they did and we were so greatful, it’s always nice to get settled into you room before you go exploring. We had a one bedroom suite and it was wonderful, nice kitchen equipped with everything you need, everything was nice clean and the room was very spacious. Over all great hotel and would recommend to anyone
Samantha, 2-night trip
