Hotel is well located within walking distance to Museums, Capitol Hill, Rideau Canal, etc. Breakfast area staff was very friendly and helpful. Reception staff can use some communication training. Checking in was snail slow and we were never greeted in 3 days stay.

This is an awesome independent property only one block from Byward Market, and only a few blocks from Rideau Centre and Parliament Hill. Smaller rooms but kept very clean and with lots of nice thoughtful touches. Bed was extremely comfortable. Staff was helpful and friendly. So much nicer than a chain hotel. Very good value.

Very pleasant stay! This hotel has no bells or whistles but I would definitely stay at the Byward Blue Inn again if I am ever in Ottawa. The room was comfortable and very clean. There was a lovely little balcony to enjoy a coffee on. There is metered street parking and a "P" parking lot right next door that is security patrolled. Hot breakfast was included and the late 12:00 pm checkout is so very much appreciated. Five minute walk to Byward market and lots of restaurants. Hotel staff were helpful and friendly. Thank you Byward Blue Inn for a pleasant stay.
