Top Ottawa Hotel Reviews

Lord Elgin Hotel

Lord Elgin Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"This was our first stay in Ottawa. This hotel is centrally located, and had a pretty good price for the location and quality of stay, relative to other "branded" hotels in the area. Everything was clean and well maintained. They have a narrow lap pool, and hot tub that fits 4-6. We only used the the restaurant for breakfast once. They offer a buffet and a la carte. Prices are typical and the same as other's in the area. I would stay here again as the everything (Parliament, Rideau Canal, Rideau Centre etc.) are all within 5 -10 min. walk"
